2. Enter the name for each positioner associated with the motion group (StepAxis and
ScanAxis in this case). Define the home sequence ("Together" or "XThenY" or
"YThenX"). For error compensation, define the name and structure of the correction
data, otherwise leave these fields blank. For details about error compensation, see
chapter 10.0. When done, click on "VALID" to accept the configuration.
3. Specify the plug number. The plug number is the number of the drive card (1 to 8)
where the stage is physically connected to the XPS controller (see back of XPS
controller). Select the name of the Stage from the stage data base (scroll down
menu).
Checking the box "Use a secondary Positioner" assigns a secondary positioner for a
gantry configuration. A gantry is a motion device where two positioners, each of
them having a motor, an encoder, limits, etc., are used for a motion in one direction.
