10 Commands And Functions

Normal List
Command
set_jump_mode_list
Function activates or deactivates and disables jump mode for 2D jumps.
Requirements See set_jump_mode.
Call
set_jump_mode_list( Flag )
Parameters
Flag
See set_jump_mode.
Notes • For information on using the command, see "Jump Mode", page 156.
• set_jump_mode_list functions like the control command set_jump_mode (see notes
there) but, as a list command, has the following differences:
– No tunings or jump length limits can be supplied via set_jump_mode_list.
– set_jump_mode_list doesn’t perform a check.
Flag
must have previously been suc-
cessfully set to 0 or 1 via set_jump_mode.
– Though jump mode can be deactivated and disabled by setting
Flag
to –1 via
set_jump_mode or set_jump_mode_list, it can only be reactivated again via
set_jump_mode (if the check is successful). If
Flag
was –1 prior to calling
set_jump_mode_list, then the command will have no effect.

List Command
set_jump_speed
Function defines the jump speed for the following vector commands
Call
set_jump_speed( Speed )
Parameter
Speed
jump speed in bits per ms (as a 64-bit IEEE floating point value)
Allowed range: [1.6 … 800000.0]
Comments • By default a jump speed of 10000 bits per ms is preset.
• The specified jump speed (or the preset jump speed, if no other value has been speci-
fied) is used for all subsequent jump commands until a new value is specified.
• To obtain the actual jump speed v in the image plane (in meters per second), the
specified speed value (in bits per ms) must be divided by the calibration factor K
of the correction table (in bits per mm):
v
jump
=
Speed
/ K
The calibration factor K can be queried from the correction table via get_table_para
(page 285) or get_head_para (page 265).
•The set_jump_speed command is also available as the control command
set_jump_speed_ctrl.

5 unchanged functionality (except for the extended range of values)
The image field coordinates for the X and Y axes (but not the Z axis) and all related
parameters (e.g. jump speed or wobbel amplitude) are specified as 20-bit values; in RTC
®
4
compatibility mode they are specified as 16-bit values (as with the RTC
®
4) and the RTC
®
5
multiplies the specified value for
Speed
by 16 (the permissible range of values is
correspondingly reduced to [0.1 … 50000.0]).
