DMC_grat_scan_nochop

At each grating position, data is taken with chopper at position P#11 (P#5 ramps), and then on BB1 and BB2 (P#9 ramps at positions P#7 and P#8)

DMC sequence pseudo code:

Input variabke(s):

int[] procedure DMC_grat_scan_nochop {
    int nb_up_dn = 1;          // Seq P#1  Nb of sequences: up down up ...
    int nb_grat_steps_up = 10; // Seq P#2  Nb of grating up steps
    int nb_ramps_grat_pos = 2; // Seq P#5  Nb of ramps per grating position
    int nb_CS1_CS2 = 0;        // Seq P#6  Nb of cycles on CS, per grat position
    int nb_ramps_cs = 2;       // Seq P#9  Nb of ramps per plateau on the CS
    int nb_grat_steps_dn = 10; // Seq P#10 Nb of grating down steps

The only role of PACS' DMC scripts is the computation of the duration of DEC/MEC sequences, needed as input variable when starting the associated OBCP.
