Stage/Axis Tab
This tab contains a number of parameters which are related to the physical
characteristics of the particular stage or actuator being driven. They need to be set
accordingly such that a particular stage is driven properly by the system.
Fig. 5.16 Stage/Axis Tab
These parameters were set automatically when the ZST6 actuator was selected using
the APTConfig utility in Section 3.5. The APT server automatically applied suitable
defaults for the parameters on this tab during boot up of any client software such as
APTUser. These parameters should not be altered for pre-defined Thorlabs stages
and actuators selected using APT Config, as it may adversely affect the performance
of the stage.
For third party stage types not available using the APT Config utility, these stage
details must be entered manually.
Individual parameters are described in Section 6.3.
