Command: dr


Description:

Displays the status of the Debris Removal system or turns it on/off. Use this to read the current vacuum.

The debris removal is required for imaging of ALL ablative media. If skipping a load sequence by setting "sys load" to 0, then this command MUST be used before imaging ablative media.

The debris removal will automatically be started before a plot if the media parameter 'ablative' is set to 1. If not then there is danger of getting debris on the final optic of the thermal head.

'dr on' turns the system on, 'dr off' turns it off. A filter check is done while turning on, and a check for the installed flag in 'set sys' is followed by a cable check for both commands.


Notes:

The cable check done is the same as for the chiller unit since the two units are daisy chained.


Applies To:
