Data Types for Recording

NOTE: X may be replaced by Y,Z or W for capturing data on other axes, or A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H for LEG-
END-MC.

Example - Recording into An Array

During a position move, store the X and Y positions and position error every 2 msec.

RC n,m

The RC command begins data collection. Sets data capture
time interval where n is an integer between 1 and 8 and
designates 2n msec between data. m is optional and specifies
the number of elements to be captured. If m is not defined, the
number of elements defaults to the smallest array defined by
DM. n=0 stops recording.

RC? or V=_RC

Returns a 0 or 1 where, 0 denotes not recording, 1 specifies
recording in progress
