56 Version: 2.0.0 MS205Equ C-863 Mercury Controller
NOTICE
Oscillations!
Unsuitable settings made to the servo-control parameters of the C-863 can cause
the stage to oscillate. Oscillations can damage the stage and/or the load affixed to it.
Secure the stage and all loads adequately.
If the stage is oscillating (unusual operating noise), immediately switch off the
servo mode or disconnect the C-863 from the power source.
Only switch on the servo mode after you have modified the servo-control
parameter settings of the C-863; see "Optimizing Servo-Control Parameters"
(p. 64).
If, due to a very high load, oscillations occur already during the reference move,
follow the instructions for the reference move in "Troubleshooting" (p. 85).
INFORMATION
Parameter values from the stage database are only loaded to the volatile memory of
the controller.
INFORMATION
The C-863 has a nonvolatile memory for parameter values. Therefore, after
switching-on, the correct parameter settings for the stage connected may already be
loaded.
However, if you have loaded a parameter set from the stage database and
overwritten the original settings of the C-863 in the volatile memory in the
process, avoid saving the new settings in the nonvolatile memory of the C-863.
The original settings are active again after the C-863 has been switched off and
on again or been rebooted.
INFORMATION
If in PIMikroMove the Select connected stages step is not displayed, the controller
has probably already loaded the correct parameter settings for the stage type
connected.
1. Check during the Start up axes step whether the correct stage type is at mid-
range of the window in the Stage column.
2. If the stage type is not correct, click Select connected stages in the left area of
the Start up controller window for changing the stage type.
