Note
Each physical APT hardware unit is factory programmed with a unique 8 digit serial
number. In order to simulate a set of ‘real’ hardware the Config utility allows an 8 digit
serial number to be associated with each simulated unit. It is good practice when
creating simulated configurations for software development purposes to use the
same serial numbers as any real hardware units that will be used. Although serial
numbers are 8 digits (as displayed in the ‘Load Configuration Details’ window), the
first two digits are added automatically and identify the type of control unit.
The prefixed digits relating to the BPC301 piezo controller are:
41xxxxxx - Benchtop APT Single Channel Piezo Controller
When the APT Software is next run up, the system automatically creates 3 simulated
single channel piezo drive cards.
