K-Cube Inertia Piezo Motor Driver
Chapter 4 Standalone Operation
4.1 Introduction
The K-Cube Piezo Inertia Motor Driver has been designed specifically to operate with
the latest range of Thorlabs piezo inertia motor driven products. The unit offers a fully
featured control capability including max drive voltage settings, step rate and step
acceleration, allowing support for many different actuator configurations. These
parameters can be set via the Kinesis software - see Chapter 6. Furthermore, many
of these parameters are automatically set to allow “out of the box” operation with no
further “tuning” required.
The following brief overview explains how the front panel controls can be used to
perform a typical series of motor moves. It is assumed that the unit has already been
installed and configured for the particular actuator or stage connected - see Chapter
3 for more details.
Warning: Risk of Electrical Shock
Persons using the KIM101 controller must understand the hazards associated
with using high voltages and the steps necessary to avoid risk of electrical
shock. If the KIM101 is used in a manner not specified by Thorlabs, the
protective features provided by the product may be impaired.
