Caution
The LPS710 piezo actuated stage contains a capacitive feedback sensor
and can be driven only by the Thorlabs PPC001 150V Piezo Controller.
Warning
The piezo actuators in this product use high voltages. Voltages up to 150V may
be present at the STAGE connector on the rear panel. This is hazardous and can
cause serious injury. Appropriate care should be taken when using this device.
Persons using the device must understand the hazards associated with
using high voltages and the steps necessary to avoid risk of electrical
shock.
The piezo controller must be switched OFF before the stage is plugged in
or unplugged. Failure to switch the controller off may result in damage to
either the controller, the stage or both.
