3.6.36 TMCL Control Commands
There is a set of TMCL commands which are called TMCL control commands. These commands can
only be used in direct mode and not in a standalone program. For this reason they only have opcodes,
but no mnemonics. Most of these commands are only used by the TMCL-IDE (in order to implement
e.g. the debugging functions in the TMCL creator). Some of them are also interesting for use in custom
host applications, for example to start a TMCL routine on a module, when combining direct mode and
standalone mode (please see also section 7.6. The following table lists all TMCL control commands.
The motor/bank parameter is not used by any of these functions and thus is not listed in the table. It
should always be set to 0 with these commands.
