Drive Input Source (Open Loop)

 - the voltage output of the unit is a sum of up to 3

contributing  sources:  the  software  (GUI)  'Output  Voltage'  setting,  the  front  panel

potentiometer and the external input source, which in turn can be set to Hub Channel

1, Hub Channel 2 or  'EXT IN' SMA connector - see 

Analogue Input Source

 parameter.

Of these 3 contributing sources, software control is always on (since whenever the

GUI  panel  is displ ayed,  the softwa re  is  controlling  the pi ezo  cube),  whilst  the

contribution of the front panel pot and the external input can be individually enabled

or disabled as follows: 

If Software (

SW) only 

 is selected, the unit responds only to softw are inputs

and the HV amp output is that set using the SetVoltOutput method (or the GUI

panel ‘Output’ control).
If 

Analaogue INput(VIn) + SW 

 is selected, the unit sums the signal on the rear

panel ‘EXT IN’ SMC connector with the vol tage set using the SetVoltOutput

method (or the GUI panel ‘Output’ control).
If

 Adjustment Wheel + SW 

 is selected, the unit sums the voltage set using

front panel voltage wheel/joystick with the voltage set using the SetVoltOutput

method (or the GUI panel ‘Output’ control).
If 

VIn + Wheel + SW 

is selected, the unit sums the voltage set using front panel

oltage wheel/joystick with the voltage set using the SetVoltOutput m ethod (or

the GUI panel ‘Output’ control) and the signal on the rear panel EXT IN SMC

connector.

Analogue Input Source (VIn)

 - This field allows the user to select the analogue input

source, which can be one of 3 inputs:

If 

Hub Channel 1

 is selected, the feedback signal runs through all the bays -

see  Fig.  6.2.  This  setting  is  useful  in  applications  where  a ma ster  cube  is

controlling several slave cubes.
If 

Hub Channel 2

  is selected, the feedback signals run between adjacent pairs

of K-Cube bays (i.e. 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6) - see Fig. 6.2. This setting is

useful when several pairs of cubes are being used on the same hub.
If 

SMA Input

 is selected, the signal runs through external connections via the

rear panel EXT IN SMA terminal. This option is useful if a hub is not available or

the controlling signal source is not a member of the K-Cube family of products.

For example, even if a hub is not available, the combination of a KPZ101 unit

with  a  KSG101  Strain  Gauge  Reader  described  above  can  still  be  used  for
