6 Start-up and Operation
6.2 Operating the P-73x
Follow the instructions in the manual of the used piezo controller for start-up
6.3 Discharging the P-73x
The P-73x must be discharged in the following cases:
The P-73x is discharged through the internal discharge resistor of the controller from
PI.
Discharging a P-73x that is connected to the controller
In closed-loop operation:
1. Switch off the servo mode on the controller.
2. Set the piezo voltage to 0 V on the controller.
In open-loop operation:
Set the piezo voltage to 0 V on the controller.
Discharging a P-73x that is not connected to the controller
Connect the stage to the switched-off controller from PI.

and operation of the P-73x.
If the P-73x is not used but the controller remains switched on to ensure
temperature stability
