2.3 Quick Start
The following instructions illustrate the first steps with the E-517 using
PIMikroMove™ because that software offers a convenient user interface for
operating the system. See the PIMikroMove™ Manual for the complete,
more-detailed software description and
"Installing the Software on the Host
PC"
(p. 11) for how to install the program. In the example below, an
E-517.i3 3-channel model and an X-Y-Z stage are used.
!
CAUTION
Thermally stable systems have the best performance. For a thermally
stable system, power on the E-517 at least one hour before you start
working with it.
!
CAUTION
If the piezo stage starts oscillating (humming noise):
In closed-loop operation, switch off the servo immediately. The load
and / or the dynamics of operation probably differ too much from the
setup for which the system was calibrated.
In open-loop operation, stop the motion immediately. Do not operate
the piezo stage at its resonant frequency because the notch filter(s)
may be deactivated in open-loop operation. You can measure the
resonant frequency using PIMikroMove™; see "Data Recorder" (p. 31)
for more information.
Otherwise the piezo stage could be irreparable damaged.
Re-calibration should only be done by adequate trained personnel and
after consultation with PI. Otherwise preset data will be lost.
1 Interconnect your system. Find details in the User manual of the
analog piezo control electronics in which the E-517 is integrated,
and in
"Communication" (p. 45) and "Using Trigger Input and
Output
" (p. 35).
2 Power on the system. Find details in a dedicated section (p. 31).
