Operating Instructions

Interfacing with the XYZ Mapping Table

The XYZ Mapping Table can be operated by several different kinds of software:

 The Mikropack Demo software (comes with the device)
 A terminal client (such as Hyperterminal or Tera Term)
 A script in Ocean Optics OOIBase32 Platinum software

Demo Software

Upon first start-up, the application tries to find a XY-150x150 mapping stage on Com1. These are the
default settings.

The status bar displays the status of the connection. If your settings are correct, the box displays green and
“CONNECTED” appears. Otherwise, the box displays red and “NOT CONNECTED” appears.

The type of table is mainly defined by the number of axes. The length of the x-axis cannot be determined
by the software. This setting in this software only takes effect on the center position.
