ILX Lightwave ESA-C Overview
- Advanced controller for 1“3 actuators
- Convenient, finger-friendly front panel manual positioning knobs provide very fine sub-micron remote positioning
- An IEEE-488.2-compliant GPIB computer interface provides crisp, well-behaved automated execution
- The front-panel backlit LCD display provides at-a-glance monitoring of all three actuators™ activity whether motions are commanded from the front panel or the computer interface
The Newport ESA-C Controller's GPIB interface offers many innovative features. For example, in any positioning application you can choose œvelocity-controlled? or œimmediate? execution.
Velocity controlled motions occur gradually, with a user-selectable and very smooth voltage rise rate”highly useful for fine positioning of delicate, vibration-prone devices such as optical fibers and microprobes. Immediate motions occur virtually instantaneously and are useful when very forceful motion is needed, such as in minimal-trauma penetration
