(according to this manual) in their original packaging and ship it appropriately. Store and transport the XRT-A in a closed container or plastic bag, free of dust and humidity. Add desiccant bag in closed container. Avoid excessive vibrations during transport.

Symbols used Warning of hazardous electrical voltage The XRT-A is operated with a voltage of maximum 48 V DC. Failure to comply can cause: - Hazards to personnel (electric shock). - Functional disturbances or damaged stage V1.2 Page 4 of 14...
This allows a closed loop control of small samples with high accuracy and a long term stability. The XRT-A, shown in Fig. 1, is a high-precision piezo-driven rotation table which can be used in a wide range of applications. It provides unlimited bidirectional rotation. The integrated bearing function and active error motion compensation guarantees submicron radial error motion in the longitudinal direction of the stage.

The XRT-A is equipped with a male D-sub 15 HD connector for connection with the XD-S driver of Xeryon. The pin layout of the XRT-A is described in the table below. PIN # SIGNAL PIN # SIGNAL Encoder power (5V) Ground piezo 1 &...
Remark: It is recommended to use the XD-S for driving the XRT-A. If the XRT-A is driven with any other driver, Xeryon cannot guarantee a proper functioning and cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to the stage.
0 and 2.5 kHz and/or the voltage of the saw-tooth signal. Some of the buttons may be disabled when you start the windows interface. Please follow the next steps to configure the driver. This will enable all buttons. V1.2 Page 8 of 14 www.xeryon.com...

The voltage to the piezo’s is zero. The “position reached” LED will light up when the desired position is reached. Click on this button to compensate the radial error motion of the XRT-A . The green LED “active” will light up when the radial error motion compensation is active.
Remark: screws (4x M2) may not be inserted deeper than 2.5 mm into the rotor. Screwing them deeper may damage the encoder. Figure 2: Dimensions and mounting interface of the XRT-A Only for the HV-version. Only for the NM-version.
Instead, take contact with Xeryon’s customer service. • Do not apply negative voltages to the piezos. Contact Xeryon’s customer service when you have any question regarding the proper use of the stage. V1.2 Page 11 of 14 www.xeryon.com...
7. Trouble shooting When experiencing problems with the XRT-A, the following trouble shooting tips may help. If the problem persists, please contact Xeryon’s customer service. • Device makes noise. Noise is inherent to the operation of this actuator. A saw tooth driving signal of for instance 2 kHz will produce a fundamental tune of 2 kHz and many harmonics.
