Contact Newport to obtain the extended firmware version that includes the
following features.
6.1

SingleAxisWithClamping Group

The SingleAxisWithClamping Group is composed of one single positioner that allows
execution of motion commands.
In general, it is similar to SingleAxis group, the only difference is the support of
clamping: axis is clamped before moves, unclamped during moves and reclamped at
stop. This enhances the stability at a position.
A SingleAxisWithClamping group CANNOT be used in GANTRY mode (secondary
positioner is impossible).
The XPS controller can handle several SingleAxisWithClamping objects.
