Thermal3 Command
ibs profile [<increment>] [nocal]

Variables increment Specifies the spot increment as either 1, 2 or 4.

Description Perform a stroke profile and display the pulse heights. A stroke profile calculates the pulse height of all pixel(s) in the stroke. The pulse height is calculated by determining the pixel power when the pixel(s) are on and subtracting the pixel power when all pixels are off.

For the first version of the internal beam-balance sensor board, the automatic internal beam-balance sensor configuration sets the pixel pair in the center of the stroke to provide a pixel power of 1000 counts at the configured pixel level. If required ( for development purposes only ), the automatic internal beam-balance sensor configuration can be disabled by the optional token nocal. For all other versions of the internal beam-balance sensor board, configuration of the internal beam-balance sensor gain and offset is not required.

Note that the stroke profile will not configure the laser diode driver, beam-pointing driver or light valve driver.
