Defocus			☒ Set ☒ Get
DLL Function	int CCI_Return = ScSetDoubleValue(int Value_Type, double Defocus) double Defocus = ScGetDoubleValue(int Value_Type)
ASCII Function	int CCI_Return = ScCciSetDoubleValue(int Value_Type, double Defocus) double Defocus = ScCciGetDoubleValue(int Value_Type)
Description	Set or get the Defocus Value.
Value_Type	Type: int		ID:
	Location: ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeDefocus		62
Defocus	Type: double	Unit: [mm]*
Defocus	Defocus value.
CCI_Return	Type: int
CCI_Return	CCI return number, see error list.
Notes	•The pen number has to be set by ScSetPen. •The default unit is mm, but the user can select a different unit.
C# Example: Set the defocus to 1.0 mm: int CCI_Return = cci.ScSetDoubleValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeDefocus, 1.0 );
C# Example: Get the current defocus: double Defocus = cci.ScGetDoubleValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeDefocus );

SkyWriting Parameters			☒ Set ☒ Get
DLL Function	int CCI_Return = ScSetDoubleValue(int Value_Type, double Parameter) double Parameter = ScGetDoubleValue(int Value_Type)
ASCII Function	int CCI_Return = ScCciSetDoubleValue(int Value_Type, double Parameter) double Parameter = ScCciGetDoubleValue(int Value_Type)
Description	Set or get the Skywriting parameters: Start Length, End Length and Break Angle.
Value_Type	Type: int		ID:
	Location: ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyWritingStartLength		5
	Skywriting start length. [μs]
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyWritingEndLength		7
	Skywriting end length. [μs]
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyWritingBreakAngle		8
	Skywriting break angle. [deg]
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyRtcLaserShiftOn		166
	For RTC5/6 only: LaserOnShift for RTC Skywriting. [μs]
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyRtcTimeLag		167
	For RTC5/6 only: TimeLag for RTC Skywriting. [μs]
Parameter	Type: double	Unit: depends on constant
Parameter	The corresponding value.
CCI_Return	Type: int
CCI_Return	CCI return number, see error list.
Notes	•The pen number has to be set by ScSetPen.
C# Example: Set the SkyWriting start length to 200.0 µs: int CCI_Return = cci.ScSetDoubleValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyWritingStartLength, 200.0 );
C# Example: Get the current SkyWriting start length: double SkyWriting_Start_Length = cci.ScGetDoubleValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlDoubleValueTypeSkyWritingStartLength );

Pen Mark Flags		☒ Set ☒ Get
DLL Function	int CCI_Return = ScSetLongValue(int Value_Type, int Pen_Mark_Flags) int Pen_Mark_Flags = ScGetLongValue(int Value_Type)
ASCII Function	int CCI_Return = ScCciSetLongValue(int Value_Type, int Pen_Mark_Flags) int Pen_Mark_Flags = ScCciGetLongValue(int Value_Type)
Description	Set or get the pen mark flags.
Value_Type	Type: int	ID:
	Location: ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes
	scComSAMLightClientCtrlLongValueTypeMarkMode	107
Pen_Mark_Flags	Type: int	Flag:
	Location: None
	scComStandardDeviceMiscPenPathsAndMarkModeFlagSkipContour	0x10000
	Contour Disable.
	scComStandardDeviceMiscPenPathsAndMarkModeFlagSkipHatch1	0x20000
	Hatch1 Disable.
	scComStandardDeviceMiscPenPathsAndMarkModeFlagSkipHatch2	0x30000
	Hatch2 Disable.
CCI_Return	Type: int
CCI_Return	CCI return number, see error list.
Notes	•The flags are skip flags and inverse to the checkboxes in SAMLight. •The pen number has to be set by ScSetPen. •To prevent incorrect operation please read chapter How to work with flags.
C# Example: Enable contour and don't change all other flags: int Pen_Mark_Flags = cci.ScGetLongValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlLongValueTypeMarkMode ); Pen_Mark_Flags = Pen_Mark_Flags & ~0x10000; int CCI_Return = cci.ScSetLongValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlLongValueTypeMarkMode, Pen_Mark_Flags );
C# Example: Disable contour and don't change all other flags: int Pen_Mark_Flags = cci.ScGetLongValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlLongValueTypeMarkMode ); Pen_Mark_Flags = Pen_Mark_Flags \| 0x10000; int CCI_Return = cci.ScSetLongValue( ( int )ScComSAMLightClientCtrlValueTypes.scComSAMLightClientCtrlLongValueTypeMarkMode, Pen_Mark_Flags );
