Commented programs and examples of measurements and data movement using the
10746A Binary Interface. The 9825A Calculator is used a s the system controller but the

NOTE
The operating procedures (other than initial turn on) for the Laser
Transducer System are dependent on the programming and design
of the system controller.

PROGRAMMING OBJECTIVES AND METHODS
The
objective
of
programming
i s
to
obtain the
defined
results
from
the
system
under
control.
The
methods
of
programming
are
dependent
on
the
requirements
of
the
system controller
and
the
capabilities
of
the
system
under
control.
Therefore,
in
order
to
effectively
program
the
Laser
Transducer
System
you
must
understand
and
be
able
to
use
the
following
information:.
a.
LANGUAGE
OF
THE
SYSTEM
CONTROLLER.
For
example,
when
the
HP
9825A
Cal-
culator
is
used
a s
the
system
controller
the
operating
and
control
manuals
supplied
with
the
calculator
contain
complete
descriptions
and
examples
of
the
commands
and
syntax
used
with the
9825A.
Note
that
since
the
Laser
Transducer
System
also
requires
the
98213A
1/O
ROM
and
the
98034A
HP-IB
Interface,
you
must
also
famil-
iarize
yourself
with
the
additional
commands
and
capabilities
of
these
units.
Sepa-
rate
operating
and
programming
manuals
provide
this
information.
If
any
other
unit
is
used
a s
the
system
controller
(e.g.,
a
computer
or
other
calculator),
you
must
have
a
complete
understanding
of
the
capabilities
and
limitations
of
its
control
language.
b.
OPERATION
OF
THE
LASER
TRANSDUCER
SYSTEM.
Prior
to
attempting
to
pro-
gram
the
system
you
should
be
familiar
with
the
information
in
Sections
I 1
and
Ill
that
applies
to
your
system.
In
addition
there
are
general
discussions
of
system
oper-
ation
from
programming
viewpoint
contained
in
this
section.
c.
Finally,
you
must
know the
specific
addresses
and
commands
that
make
up
the
in-
structions
that
are
applicable
to
the
units
in
your
system.
This
information
is
contained
in
Tables
4-2
through
4-77.
After
you
have
reviewed
this
information, study
the
commented
programs
and
illustrations in
this
section
to
gain
the
necessary
insight
into
information
flow
within
the
Laser
Transducer
lace
programs
are
written
using
the
9825A
a s
a
system
controller.
However,
the
illus-
trated
examples
of
data
flow
apply
to
any
system
containing
the
specified
units.
