...
ID: hxx-vonhamos
(netconfig: plc-hxx-vonhamos
)
IOC: ioc-hxx-vonhamos
Rotation stage control
This stage is controlled as a regular dumb motor. It can be controlled from the vonHamos - X & Rot screen on mfxhome.
Parameter | X | Rot |
---|---|---|
EGU/Rev | 0.1333 | 1 |
Limits | +-21 | +-10 |
Velocity | 0.5 | 0.25 |
Run current | 80 | 51 |
Translation stage controls
Because the device is shared with xpp, its IOC runs on the LFE subnet and can be found in the XRT IOCs. The IOC is ioc-hxx-vonhamos
(alias von Hamos Y motion).
...
The screen for this stage is under 16-crystal vH - Y in the user panel.
Small Von Hamos (Beckhoff PLC)
ID: plc-vhs-01
IOC: DET - Von Hamos Beckhoff Motion (ioc-mfx-vhs-01
)
Beckhoff controller
All crystal motors and the main rotation are on it (13 axis).
May need to be put in running mode / re-configured. Activate configuration with build 4022.22.
Big translation stages (smart motors)
Parker stages. Require cables with 4 Phoenix contact plugs to properly power the motor and brakes. These cables should be found in (and returned to) the red cabinet next to the Von Hamos glass cabinet.
...
Be wary of the run current, as if it is too low the stage will fall upon release of the brake.
