3.5 Selecting the Stage Type
To ensure that a particular stage is driven properly by the system, a number of parameters
must first be set. These parameters relate to the physical characteristics of the stage/
actuator being driven (e.g. min and max positions, leadscrew pitch, homing direction etc.).
To assist in setting these parameters correctly, it is possible to associate a specific stage
type with the motor controller channel. Once this association has been made, the server
automatically applies suitable default parameter values on boot up of the software.
The stage type can only be selected from the top panel settings menu - see Section 4.4.11.
for more details.
Note
To ensure correct operation, it is important to select the correct stage and axis type
as described above. Selecting an incompatible stage/axis type could result in
reduced velocity and/or resolution, and in the worst case could cause the stage to
run into the end stops or home incorrectly.
