CLE(AR)/NOCL(EAR)/EXPO(SE)/REA(D)

CLEAR clears the chip, NOCLEAR suppresses CLEAR on the next GLANCE or RUN. EXPOSE t exposes for t seconds and READ reads out the chip to the GLANCE file.

Parameters

Only EXPOSE needs a parameter. It is mandatory and is the exposure time in seconds.

READ will assume the GLANCE file, but if a parameter is specified, it will be taken as the file into which to read.

Examples

Adam:> CLEAR (clear the chip)

Adam:> NOCLEAR (don't clear the chip on the next GLANCE or RUN)

Adam:> EXPOSE 10 (expose for 10 seconds)

Adam:> READ R9 (read out the chip to run file 9)

Notes

If t=0, EXPOSE does precisely nothing.
