Cygnus Operating Manual

NOTE: If a configuration file from a unit with version 1.70 or earlier firmware is

to be loaded into a unit with version 1.80 or later, verify that the path is
not set to 1 as this will prevent the file from loading due to a "File
Range Error".

PRINT SCREEN NUMBER . . . . . . . 0 to 999 (default = 0)

This parameter is used to distinguish between files printed to the floppy disk.
After each print execution the number is incremented.

DAC OUTPUT OPTION. . . . . . . . . . 0, 1, 2, 3 (default = 0)

The standard Cygnus has a single DAC board with six outputs, DAC 1 to
DAC 6. These DAC outputs are dedicated to source control voltage outputs
(Power output). Optionally a second DAC board can be added to provide DAC
outputs 7 through 12 which can be used to output Rate and/or Thickness.

When option 0 is selected, the DAC outputs have the following function:
DAC 1. . . . . . . . . Channel 1 Power
DAC 2. . . . . . . . . Channel 2 Power
DAC 3. . . . . . . . . Channel 3 Power
DAC 4. . . . . . . . . Channel 4 Power
DAC 5. . . . . . . . . Channel 5 Power
DAC 6. . . . . . . . . Channel 6 Power
DAC 7. . . . . . . . . Channel 1 Rate
DAC 8. . . . . . . . . Channel 2 Rate
DAC 9. . . . . . . . . Channel 3 Rate
DAC 10. . . . . . . . Channel 4 Rate
DAC 11 . . . . . . . . Channel 5 Rate
DAC 12. . . . . . . . Channel 6 Rate

When option 1 is selected, the DAC outputs are:
DAC 1. . . . . . . . . Channel 1 Power
DAC 2. . . . . . . . . Channel 2 Power
DAC 3. . . . . . . . . Channel 3 Power
DAC 4. . . . . . . . . Channel 4 Power
DAC 5. . . . . . . . . Channel 5 Power
DAC 6. . . . . . . . . Channel 6 Power
DAC 7. . . . . . . . . Channel 1 Thickness
DAC 8. . . . . . . . . Channel 2 Thickness
DAC 9. . . . . . . . . Channel 3 Thickness
DAC 10. . . . . . . . Channel 4 Thickness
DAC 11 . . . . . . . . Channel 5 Thickness
DAC 12. . . . . . . . Channel 6 Thickness

When Option 2 is selected, the DAC outputs are:
DAC 1. . . . . . . . . Channel 1 Power
DAC 2. . . . . . . . . Channel 2 Power
DAC 3. . . . . . . . . Channel 3 Power
