Normal
List Command
set_ext_start_delay_list
Function same as set_ext_start_delay (see above), but a list command
Call
set_ext_start_delay_list( Delay, EncoderNo )
Parameters Delay See set_ext_start_delay.
EncoderNo See set_ext_start_delay.
Comments • If
EncoderNo > 1, then set_ext_start_delay_list will be replaced by a list_nop
(get_last_error return code
RTC5_PARAM_ERROR ).

Ctrl Command set_firstpulse_killer
Function defines the length of the FirstPulseKiller signal for a YAG laser
Call
set_firstpulse_killer( Length )
Parameter Length length of the FirstPulseKiller signal as an unsigned 32-bit value.
1 bit equals 1/64 µs. Allowed range: [0 … +(2
26
–1)]
Comments • Values over (2
26
–1) will be clipped.
• The time base for the FirstPulseKiller signal is always 64 MHz (i.e. 1 bit equals 1/64 µs).
• The signal level is defined via set_laser_control.
• For YAG mode 2, the Q-Switch delay will also be correspondingly altered (see
page 133).
•In CO
2
mode, the command set_firstpulse_killer has no effect.
• The laser control mode has to be set via the command set_laser_mode (page 443).
Refer to chapter 7.4 "Laser Control", page 128 for details.
• To set the Q-Switch pulse length and period, use the commands set_laser_pulses_ctrl,
set_laser_pulses or set_laser_timing (page 446).

5 essentially identical functionality (except for the extended range of values), however:
Length must be specified in units of 1/64 µs with the RTC
®
5; in RTC
®
4 compatibility mode
it must be specified in units of 1/8 µs (as with the RTC
®
4). In RTC
®
4 compatibility mode,
the RTC
®
5 multiplies the specified value for Length by 8 (the permissible range of values is
correspondingly reduced).
