Stage¶
The stage panel (Figure 94) provides functionality to control the positioning stage.
Open the stage panel
Figure 93 shows the stage axes.
Stage Tab¶
Stage Position (XY-Axes)
Move along the X-axis in the negative direction
Move along the X-axis in the positive direction
Move along the Y-axis in the negative direction
Move along the Y-axis in the positive direction
Step (µm): Step size along the XY-axes
X (µm): Current X-axis relative position
The relative position is given by the position sensor.Y (µm): Current Y-axis relative position
The relative position is given by the position sensor.Set To Zero: Set the current position as reference for the XY-axes
Stage Position (Z-Axis)
Move along the Z-axis in the negative direction (away from the surface)
Move along the Z-axis in the positive direction (towards the surface)
Step (µm): Step size along the Z-axis
Z (µm): Current Z-axis relative position
The relative position is given by the position sensor.Set To Zero: Set the current position as reference, for the Z-axis
Stop: Stop immediately
Connect: Connect the stage controller
Disconnect: Disconnect the stage controller
