specified in pulses per second, in the range 1 to 2,000.
Step Acceleration - The acceleration up to the step rate. It is specified in pulses/sec/
sec in the range 1 to 100,000.
Persist Settings to Hardware
Many of the parameters that can be set for the Piezo Driver K-Cube can be stored
(persisted) within the unit itself, such that when the unit is next powered up these
settings are applied automatically. This is particularly important when the driver is
being used manually in the absence of a PC and USB link. The Drive and Jog Setting
parameters described perviously are good examples of settings that can be altered
and then persisted in the driver for use in absence of a PC. To save the settings to
hardware, check the 'Persist Settings to Hardware' checkbox before clicking the 'OK
button.
Settings are always saved to the unit on power down.
