Low-Level

Composite commands such as Pattern / Modulation are equivalent to a combination of the following low-level commands. When they fit in a single frame they are sent as one fused command.

Category	Pattern family	Modulation family
Buffer write	WritePatternBuffer	WriteModulationBuffer
Bank config	ConfigPattern	ConfigModulation
Bank switch	ChangePatternBank	ChangeModulationBank

This section also includes WriteFociBuffer, which writes a focal point sequence for Foci STM, and its configuration ConfigFociStm.

For writing to the Pattern buffer, there is also WritePatternCompressed, which sends only the phase in compressed form and writes multiple Patterns into a single frame. The intensity is fixed at maximum, but it is effective when reducing the transmission volume for high-frequency updates.

For the concept of bank switching see the bank switching tutorial, and for loops and transitions see the loop and transition tutorial.
