4.2.3 Calculating the EncoderConst Value
Each stage has a specific constant for converting encoder counts to microsteps. For the LNR50SE stage, this value is
4292282941.
For example
Encoder resolution = 100 nm
Stepper resolution = 409600 microsteps/turn/mm
= 2.44 nm per step
Therefore no. of µsteps per encoder count = 100 nm/2.44 = 40.96.
The chip inside the controller uses 16.16 bit format, where 16 bits represent the integer and 16 bit are for the fraction.
Interger part 40 = Hex28 = 0X0028
Fraction part 0.96/1/65536 = 62914.56 = F5C3
Therefore EncoderConst value = 0028F5C3
For negative values, we must find the 2s compliment value…
28F5C3 = 0000 0000 0010 1000.1111 0101 1100 0011
2s comp = 1111 1111 1101 0111.0000 1010 0011 1100 + 1
= FFD7.0A3D
4.3 Mounting Equipment to the Stage
Thorlabs manufacture a variety of fibre chucks, holders and fixtures to fit the linear stage. All of these accessories are mounted
to the stage via a top platform, see Fig. 4.6.

Caution
The weight attached to the moving platform must not exceed 10 kg.
Do not apply excessive forces to the moving platform.
