which features an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI). The source code, in C# format, is included in
software bundle available for download, and custom applications can be created in any language. The image
at right shows a screen capture of the GUI, and the button that follows links to the download page.
Commands are entered in the Sequencer command / wait order section located at the center-left of the GUI.
An example of a sequence of commands that might be sent to the device is "Aho0" to move to the rotation
stage at address "A" to the home position in the clockwise direction, and then "Afw" to move the stage at
address "A" forward by the jog increment. The command "As1" is used to perform the frequency search that
will identify the optimal resonant frequencies, for the current operating conditions, for Motor 1 at adddress "A."
Software
Version 1.4.3
Includes the Elliptec System Software, with an easy-to-use GUI. Also available for download is the
Communications Protocol manual, which details the communication commands for the Elliptec software
package.
