Scope move#

Moves the microscope of the probe station laterally to a given x/y position.

Description#

The test moves the motorized scope of the connected probe station on the x and y axis. The target position is interpreted relative to a selectable reference point:

Reference point Meaning
Zero Absolute position in machine coordinates
Home Position relative to the scope home position
Relative Movement relative to the current scope position
Center Position relative to the center position

Input parameters#

Parameter Description
Probe station The probe station whose scope shall be moved.
x-axis movement The movement/position on the x axis.
y-axis movement The movement/position on the y axis.
Reference point The reference point for the movement (Zero, Home, Relative, Center).

Output parameters#

This test does not store output parameters.

Supported devices#

All probe stations with a motorized scope, e.g. MPI SENTIO based probe stations.

Example#

Select the probe station, set an x/y movement of 100 µm each and choose the reference point "Relative" to move the scope by 100 µm in both directions.
