8.1.4 Selecting the Tuning
(Dynamics Setting)
SCANLAB can optimize the dynamics setting of
scan systems (tuning) to accommodate differing
requirements of diverse applications regarding the
laser positioning dynamics, for example:
• Vector tuning
to execute vectors or circular arcs at a constant
processing speed
• Jump tuning
to execute jumps of minimized duration
iDRIVE scan systems
(1)
can be optionally equipped
with several tunings. For different applications, the
suitable tuning can be switched to – separately for
each axis – by control_command( Data = 11nn
H
).
For scan systems equipped with one or several
Jump tunings, you can also activate Jump Mode (and
hereby tuning autoswitching) for 2D jumps, see
Chapter 8.1.5 ”Jump Mode”, page 217.
The default set start behavior is that the scan system
starts with tuning number 0 upon power-up or after
a reset.
