Thermal2 Command
bbs info

Description Displays beam-balance sensor information as follows:

BBS: Shutter Status=<Shutter Status>
BBS: Sensor Selection=<Sensor Selection>
BBS: Sensor Gain=<Sensor Gain>
BBS: Sensor Offset=<Sensor Offset>

The beam-balance sensor shutter status is determined from the monitor command bbs shutter (open|close), the safety loop and the host. The shutter status will be one of the following:
  • Open
  • Open ( by the host only )
  • Open ( by both the head and host )
  • Close
  • Close ( due to safety fault )

The beam-balance sensor selection, gain and offset configure the beam-balance sensor.

Notes Thermal 1.0 / 1.7x equivalents:
  • The monitor command bbs info does not have an equivalent.
