
Press Device Name to enter a custom name
for the device.

Press Device Type to select the type of
device: linear (tower) or rotational
(turntable). For rotational devices, a
Continuous or non-Continuous mode
sub-type can be selected; for linear devices
a Tower or Bore Sight Tower sub-type can
be selected .
In the continuous mode of operation a turntable is allowed
unlimited movement. The counter readout is from 0 to
359.9 and the software limits are ignored. In the
non-continuous mode, the turntable is restricted between
upper and lower software limits.
Note: All devices with an ETS-Lindgren motor base incorporate a
counter or encoder. The number of counts per meter must be set to
ensure accurate movement. Normally this number is factory-set and
should not be changed.
In jog mode, users can select whether limits are
respected. If Jog Limits is set to Enabled , movement is
stopped when software limits are reached. If set to
Disabled , movement can continue beyond software limits.
When Jog Quick Stop is disabled, stopping when in
jog mode uses the device acceleration parameter to stop
slowly. If Jog Quick Stop is enabled, releasing the button
will result in an immediate stop.
