 +====== Command:WRDAC ======
  
 +--> On Tiger with TGLED ^
 +
 +^Format  |[Addr#]WRDAC X=[1 to 100]   |
 +^Units    |Percentage between 0 and 100 |
 +^Type |Card-Addressed|
 +^Remembered |Using [Addr#]SS Z |
 +
 +This command is “recycled” for a slightly different use in TGLED than for other cards.  In the context of a TGLED card this command is used to set the maximum amount of current for all the LED channels. 
 +
 +The Maximum amount of current a TGLED Rev A card can output on each LED channel is 1.2Amps. When the X argument is set to 75, then maximum current each channel will output is reduced to 75% of 1.2Amps i.e. 0.9Amps. 
 +
 +This command can be used as a quick way to adjust the brightness of all LED channels. Default is 75%, ASI recommends not exceeding this limit. 
 +
 +__//Example//__
 +
 +<asi>$ 1WRDAC X=50
 +:A</asi>
 +Limits the maximum current output on each channel to 50% or 0.6Amps
 +
 +<asi>$ 1WRDAC X? 
 +X=50 :A</asi>
 +Queries the card for maximum current percentage.

 +
 +^Format  |WRDAC X=[0 to 10]   |
 +^Units    |Voltage, 0 to 10V |
 +^Firmware Required    |8.4f+ |
 +Lets the user set the voltage on header pin SV1-5 on WK2000 board. The voltage can be varied between 0 and 10 Volts, with an accuracy of 0.1V. Maximum Output drive current is 35mA. Input value in volts. Does not work with Piezo units. If using a a firmware build with "PZ" in the name, such as PZ_CRISP, commanded moves of the Z axis will be scaled using the [[commands:customa|CCA X command]] (minimum=0v, maximum=10.00v) and output on the analog 0-10V output BNC (SV1 Pin 5).
 +
 +__//Example//__
 +
 +<asi>$ WRDAC X=1.1
 +:A</asi>
 +Voltage on PIN SV1-5 is 1.1Volts
 +
 +<asi>$ WRDAC X=20

 +--> On Tiger with TGPMT ^
 +
 +^Format  |[Addr#]WRDAC X=[0 to 1000] Y=[1 to 1000]   |
 +^Units    |integer, between 0 and 1000 |
 +^Type |Card-Addressed|
 +^Remembered |Using [Addr#]SS Z |
 +
 +This command is “recycled” for a slightly different use on TGPMT card than for other cards .  In the context of a TGPMT card this command is used to set the PMT's control voltage or gain. When set to 0 , PMT output signal drops to 0Volts , turning it off. When set to 1000 , 100% of control signal (1 Volts incase of H10722) is applied to the PMT. 
 +
 +**X** sets the gain for ''PMT0''
 +
 +**Y** sets the gain for ''PMT1''
 +
 +This function does the same function as the Dials on TGPMT cards faceplate. 
 +
 +__//Example//__
 +
 +<asi> $ 7 wrdac x? y?
 +X=500.000000 Y=0.000000 :A</asi>
 +Queries the TGPMT card at Address 7 for PMT gain settings. PMT0 is at 50% gain , PMT1 is at 0% gain and so is off.
 +
 +<asi> $ 7wrdac x=505 
 +:A</asi>
 +Sets the gain of PMT0 at 50.5% on TGPMT card at address 7
