Virtual Joystick

The Virtual Joystick simulates a real proportional joystick, the more the slider is moved towards either end, the faster the stage will move.

Virtual Joystick:
The virtual joystick has two modes, Coarse and Fine. In Coarse mode the stage will run at the specified maximum velocity when the slider is fully deflected. In Fine mode the stage runs at a fraction of the set maximum velocity, thus allowing fine position control.

Hint: Reducing the Max Velocity will produce finer control when in Fine mode.

Teach and Playback:
Teach and Playback provides a simple interface for recording a motion trajectory and playing it back.

To begin teaching, use the virtual joystick to jog the stage to the first point then click Record. Jog the stage to the next position and click Add. Repeat as many times as desired. After all positions have been recorded, click Stop.
