Laser Marking
• Vectors and arcs
– Commands for marking ellipses, see Section
”Ellipse Commands”, page 138
– Commands for marking helices, see Chapter
”3D Commands”, page 238
– Timed arc commands, timed 3D vector
commands, see Chapter 8.9
”Timed Commands”, page 274
– Para-Mark Commands and Para-
Jump Commands for “vector-controlled laser
control”, see Section ”Vector-Defined Laser
Control”, page 206
• Characters and texts
– Defining character sets and text strings, see
Section ”Defining Indexed Character Sets”,
page 118
– Commands for marking individual characters
and for marking texts (with selectable character
set), see Section ”Calling Indexed Characters”,
page 119
– Commands for marking dates, times and serial
numbers (with selectable character set and
selectable serial-number-set), see Chapter 7.5
”Marking Dates, Times and Serial Numbers”,
page 210
• micro_vector[*] Commands (direct position
output without Microstepping), see Chapter 8.8
”micro_vector[*] Commands”, page 273.
Special Functions
• Synchronization of scan system and laser control
– Sky Writing, see Chapter 7.2.4 ”Sky Writing”,
page 160
• Pixel Output Mode (marking of bitmaps), see
Chapter 8.7 ”Pixel Output Mode”, page 263:
– Pixel output frequencies up to 800 kHz, beyond
that with Option “UFPM“ up to 3.2 MHz
– RTC4-Pixel Mode 0 with 10 µs clock
synchronous output is no longer supported
– 15 ns resolution
– 0…100% laser pulse length
– Pixel-Mode 0 not supported
– Reading of analog voltages is not supported
– 3D pixel lines with set_pixel_line_3d
• Commands for conditional execution of any
list command, see Chapter 9.3.2 ”Conditional
Command Execution”, page 295
• Possible wobbel motion shapes include not only
circles, but also ellipses, horizontal figure-of-8s,
vertical figure-of-8s, and “freely definable wobbel
shapes”. Options for the orientation of the
wobbel shapes are: stationary in space,
continuously and automatically adjusted to the
current direction of motion, or any other freely
assigned motion direction. With “Freely Definable
Wobbel Shapes”, also the laser power can be
varied, see Chapter 8.4 ”Wobbel Mode”,
page 232
• Camming functionality, see Chapter 8.11
”Camming”, page 279
• Enhanced signal recording, see
set_trigger/set_trigger4/set_trigger8
