Stage/Axis Tab - THORLABS KBD101 User Manual

For motors which do incorporate a leadscrew, when this parameter is set the system
will overshoot the demanded set point by the specified amount, and then reverse.
This ensures that during absolute or relative moves, the target position is always
approached in a forward direction. The Backlash Correction Distance is specified in
real world units (millimeters).
To remove backlash correction, this value should be set to zero.
Note. Setting a negative value for backlash correction also results in zero correction.

6.3.3 Stage/Axis Tab

This tab contains a number of parameters which are related to the physical
characteristics of the particular stage being driven. They need to be set
accordingly such that a particular stage is driven properly by the system.
For Thorlabs stages, the Kinesis server will automatically apply suitable
defaults for the parameters on this tab during boot up of the software.
Most of these parameters cannot subsequently be altered as it may
adversely affect the performance of the stage and they are greyed out.
Description of these parameters is included for information only.
In the event that these settings need to be changed, the user can create a
custom settings group - see the Kinesis Helpfile for more information.
