These studies were done using halldxps1 XPS-C8 controller from Newport.
1. Configuration of the XPS Controller
1.1 Configuration of motor and stage
Building of "stages.ini" file which is located in the "CONFIG" folder of the controller.
- Connect to the XPS Controller halldxps1 using an internet browser.
- Login as Administrator.
- Select STAGE, then "Add Custom Stage" and fill all fields.
I defined Stage1 (Stage_ST55D) Stage for the stepper motor ST55D and Stage for microscope beam test as follovs:
