IMPORTANT

You are responsible for verifying that the servo control system safely controls

the linear stage with regard to maximum force, acceleration, and speed.

ATTENTION: Moving parts can injure. Before running the stage, make sure all

components are secure.

Check that the linear stage is clear of foreign matter and tools. Objects hit by the

moving stage can cause personnel injury or damage to the equipment.

Incorrect motor, Hall, or encoder wiring can cause uncontrolled motion.
