| Variables | offset | Specifies the pixel pair for level calibration from 0 to 238. |
| Description | Calculate the pulse height for the pixel pair at all pixel levels. The beam-balance calculates the required stroke profile by adjusting the pixel levels. The monitor command bbs level <offset> [nocal] can be used to determine the relationship between pixel levels and pulse heights ( it's not linear ). The performance of the beam-balance can be improved by determining and compensating for the relationship between pixel levels and pulse heights. | |
| The automatic beam-balance sensor configuration sets the pixel pair in the center of the stroke to provide a pixel power of 1000 counts at the maximum pixel level. If required ( for development purposes only ), the automatic beam-balance sensor configuration can be disabled by the optional token nocal. Note that the sensor selection will always be set for high gain by the level profile. | ||
| Note that the level profile will close the shutter. However, the level profile will not configure the laser diode driver, beam-pointing driver or light valve driver. | ||
