This command changes the way the transfer matrixes are calculated internally:
3 C(ALCULATION) M(ODE)
<mode> ;
[example: C M 2 ;]
[C M 1 ;]
In C M 1, transfer matrixes of the main optical elements are calculated by
routines generated by the program Hamilton, in C M 2, transfer matrixes are
calculated
by using TPSA routines. In both calculation modes, the tranfer matrices
are concatenated to get the system transfer matrix. In C M 3,
no transfer matrixes for single optical elements are calculated, the system
transfer matrix is derived from calculating the system as a whole.
C M 2 and C M 3 both use an integrator. The accuracy of the integrator
can be changed with
3 C(ALCULATION) A(CCURACY)
<accuracy> ;
[example: C A 1.E-3 ;]
[C A 1.E-4 ;]
