Disclaimer
Zaber’s devices are not intended for use in any critical medical, aviation, or military applications or situations where
a product's use or failure could cause personal injury, death, or damage to property. Zaber disclaims any and all
liability for injury or other damages resulting from the use of our products.
Precautions
Zaber's autodetect peripheral axes are designed to be used effortlessly with Zaber's line of autodetect controllers.
The ASR-E includes onboard memory that allows Zaber's controllers to autodetect the model and set reasonable
parameters. See the
Protocol Manual
for more information on how to modify the settings. Damage to the axis may
result if the settings are not correct. To use your Zaber peripheral with a third-party controller, review the motor,
sensor, and encoder specifications and pin-outs carefully.
Zaber’s motion control devices are precision instruments and must be handled with care. In particular, moving parts
must be treated with care. Avoid axial loads in excess of the rated thrust load, axial and radial impact, dust and
other contaminants and damage to the lead screw thread. These will reduce the performance of the device below
stated specifications.
