Faster 789 scanning.

NOTICES FOR KCUBE USERS:

The following one-time steps should be taken to enable proper KST201 homing and solve KST101/KST201 maximum range movement issues:
1). Connect the KST201 to your PC.
2). Run the ThorLabs Kinesis GUI software.
3). Move and Home the KST201.
The MMC Software can now be used as usual.

Currently, when a KST201 is connected the Device Manager window responds at a 2 second cadence. Please be patient.

Verified Compatible:

  • SR810 (RS-232)
  • SR860 (RS-232)
  • KST101 and KST201 as "KST101/201" with the ZFS25B motor (USB)
  • McPherson 786A-4 (RS-232)
  • McPherson 792 (RS-232)
  • Keithley 6485 (RS-232)
