2=to: 2!:}Examples: PSETGDFOC 8300
PSETGDFOC DISABLE

2=to: 2!:}Synonym: PSETGDFOCUS

2=to: 2!:}Units: Microns.

2=to: 2!:}Range: 0 to 14100

2=to: 2!:}Comments: The argument of this command can be ENABLE, DISABLE or a focus value. If a focus value is given compensation is enabled, with the specified value as the reference position for the current main filter. If ENABLE is given then compensation is enabled with the current focus value as the reference position for the current main filter. This command does not compensate for different thicknesses of Autoguider filters; the Autoguider filter wheel is after the output end of the coherent fibre bundle, and such adjustment is not possible.
