INTRODUCTION
1.1
Structure of the TRIO MPC-145 Series Documentation Package
The TRIO MPC-145 series is a single or dual 3-axis motorized micromanipulator system
comprised of the TRIO MPC-100 ROE/controller, a power adapter, and one or two MP-845
(aluminum) or MP-845S/M (stainless steel) stepper-motor-based electromechanical
micromanipulators. This manual consists of five parts: This chapter, Introduction, which
provides an overview and general description of the TRIO MPC-145 series system; Chapter 2,
Installation, which describes how to install, set up, and configure all components of the
system; Chapter 3, Operations, which describes how to operate the TRIO MPC-100
ROE/controller; Chapter 4, External Control, describes how to control the system by
computer; Chapter 5, Maintenance, describes how to perform routine and other
maintenance; and Chapter 6, Reconfiguration, describes the reconfiguration possibilities of
the TRIO MPC-100 ROE/controller.
