Page 13: Maintenance And Inspection
NPC1USB Voltage Piezo USB Amplifier Maintenance and Inspection CAUTION! • When cleaning the exterior box of the voltage amplifier, first turn off the power switch and unplug the power plug. Failure to follow these procedures may result in a fire or electrical shock. -
Page 14: Npc1Usb Definition
The amplifier can be controlled by an applied analogue voltage signal from 0 V to +10 V. Monitor Output The output voltage signal corresponds to the position of the piezo actuating system with the applied voltage signal (OPEN LOOP mode only for NPC1USB). PC Interface USB 2.0 Hyper Terminal Program This software enables the control of the piezo actuating system by using the USB interface. -

3.3.1 Block Diagram The chart below shows the block diagram of the NPC1USB. With exception of the display and the processor, the circuit is a similar of the NPC amplifier series. NOTE The travel capability of actuators or stages is limited to 80% due to the limited voltage range of the NPC1USB. -

Newport Corporation and will require additional effort and costs. Please contact our sales team for more information. Initiation Please follow all safety instructions given in this user manual and the NPC1USB Quick Start Guide. 3.4.1 Main Supply Voltage The NPC1USB amplifier requires a main supply voltage of 24 VDC. -
Page 17: Handling
Handling Controlling via Interface The amplifier NPC1USB is controlled via an USB 2.0 interface. Therefore, signal parameters and information about the actuator position or status can be adjusted or settled directly in the computer interface. Furthermore, the system settings of the amplifier unit can also be changed by using the interface. -
Page 18: State Diagram
Voltage Piezo USB Amplifier State Diagram For a safe and consistent operation, the NPC1USB Uses 6 different operation states: Not referenced, Configuration, Homing, Ready, Disable and Moving. In each state, only specific commands are accepted by the NPC1USB. It is important to understand the state diagram below and which commands and actions cause transition between different states. -
Page 19: Command Syntax
READY state. The process for homing, and which signals are looked for during homing, can be defined with the HT command. Command Syntax The NPC1USB is a command driven controller. The general format of a command is a two letter ASCII character preceded and followed by parameters specific to the command: Command format: Optional or required controller address. -
Page 20: Command Set
For example, a 1VA10 sets the velocity of the controller #1 to 10 units/second. A “1VA?” sends the response “1VA10”. Not every command can be executed in all states of the NPC1USB and some commands have different meaning in different states. It is therefore important to understand the state diagram of the controller, see chapter 5.0: “State Diagram”. -
