Scope of the Manual

The XPS is an extremely high-performance, easy to use, integrated motion
controller/driver offering high-speed communication through 10/100 Base-T Ethernet,
outstanding trajectory accuracy and powerful programming functionality. It combines
user-friendly web interfaces with advanced trajectory and synchronization features to
precisely control from the most basic to the most complex motion sequences. Multiple
digital and analog I/O's, triggers and supplemental encoder inputs provide users with
additional data acquisition, synchronization and control features that can improve the
most demanding motion applications.
To maximize the value of the XPS Controller/Driver system, it is important that users
become thoroughly familiar with available documentation:

controller.
The Programmer's, TCL, Software Drivers and Stage Configuration manuals are PDF
files accessible from the XPS web site.
