6 SETI - sets the exponents which define the plotting range in the
7 plotter address unit coordinate system.
8
10 Plotter Address Units (PAUs) are no longer used in NCAR Graphics; thus,
11 SETI is considered an obsolete routine.
12
13 The current recognized coordinate systems are GKS world coordinates,
14 GKS normalized device coordinates, NCAR Graphics fractional
15 coordinates, and NCAR Graphics user coordinates. See the NCAR Graphics
16 document "NCAR Graphics Fundamentals, UNIX Version" for a description
17 of these coordinate systems.
18
19 SETI continues to be provided for compatibility of early NCAR Graphics
20 codes.
21
22 The following definition of the PAU Coordinate System is included for
23 the purpose of interpreting and converting PAU codes:
24
25 The plotter coordinates of a point are integers IPX and IPY, where IPX
26 is between 1 and 2**MX and IPY is between 1 and 2**MY. MX and MY are
27 internal parameters of SPPS; each has the default value 10. Values of
28 MX and MY can be set by routine SETI and retrieved by routine GETSI.
29
31 CALL SETI (IX,IY)
32
34 IX (an input expression of type INTEGER) is the X axis
35 exponent for plotter coordinates defining a range of 1 to
36 2**IX - 1. IX has a default value of 10.
37
38 IY (an input expression of type INTEGER) is the Y axis
39 exponent for plotter coordinates defining a range of 1 to
40 2**IY - 1. IY has a default value of 10.
41
43 To use SETI, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and
44 ncarg_c, preferably in that order.
