Scope of the Manual

From the XPS, the XPS-RL inherits the extremely high performance, high-speed
communication through 10/100/1000 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.
The XPS-RL holds all of these features in a more compact and mobile package.
To maximize the value of the XPS-RL Controller/Driver system, it is important that
users become thoroughly familiar with available documentation:
The XPS-RL Quick Start is delivered as a hard copy with the controller.
The XPS-RL User's Manual, Programmer's and Software Drivers manuals are PDF files
accessible from the controller disk which can be downloaded from the controller
website under the tab Documentation.
.NET assemblies and corresponding sources are available from the controller disk
which can be downloaded from the controller website under the tab Documentation ->
Drivers & Examples.
LabVIEW VIs with examples are also available to download from the Newport website.
The Quick Start is the getting-started part of the system. It serves as an introduction
and as a reference. It includes:
1. Unpacking and Handling
2. Inspection for Damage
3. Packing List
4. System Setup
5. Connecting the XPS-RL
