::: GENERAL INFORMATION :::
Automated XY-positioning stage PT-03
PT-03
An automated stage PT-03 serves for
object positioning in a plane. The object platform motion is managed either directly
from the controller by buttons on its front panel or from program run
on PC. Knobs for manual positioning present. The stage can be employed for object
micropositioning in microscopes and for other applications.

::: SOFTWARE :::
Control
software for PT-03 is a unified
program for driving three stepper motors. It is a 32-bit Windows application
that runs under Windows 98se/Me/2000/XP/Vista operating systems.
The software provides control over the motor speed, drive power
(coil curret), platform motion range (in steps of stepper motor or in mm), setting
of the motion direction and movement of the object platform to the set position
(to the point with the set coordinates within the mechanism range).
Minimal configuration of host PC (not included in the delivery
set): Celeron® 1.7 GHz, RAM 128 MB, HDD 40 GB, VRAM 64 MB, monitor
17" 1024x768x32 bit, MS Windows® XP, COM/USB port.
