NAME teramp - ramp the temperature to
a new set point
SYNOPSIS teramp new_set_point ramp_time
[step_size]
DESCRIPTION The teramp macro gradually
changes (or ramps) the temperature from the current set point to
new_set_point. The ramp takes
ramp_time seconds to complete.
If the optional step_size parameter is
given, it used to calculate the time between updates of the
controller setting. If the update interval is less than the
value given by the global variable TERAMP_MIN (0.2
seconds, by default), the step_size will be
increased to make the update interval at least
TERAMP_MIN seconds.
If only two arguments are given and if the
ramp_time parameter is less than 500 seconds,
the controller setting is updated every two seconds. Otherwise,
the controller is updated every ten seconds.
As with all of spec's temperature-control
macros, you need to define a measuretemp and a
_settemp macro that work correctly with your
instruments. See the Temperature Control Macros section
in the spec Standard Macro Guide and the
temper.mac macro source file for details.
EXAMPLE teramp 1.3 300
teramp 23 500 .01
