Connecting Mechanical Stage
75x50 mot. CAN
The connector panel of the Mechanical Stage
75x50 mot. CAN (Version 2 and mot. standard) is
located on the left-hand side.
•
Using the CAN bus cable, connect the CAN
connector of the mechanical stage (4-16/
2
) with
the CAN connector on the stand (back panel).
•
Plug the connecting plug of the connection
cable of the coaxial drive to connector (4-16/
1
)
of the mechanical stage.
The motorized stages can be directly connected to
stands .M2 / .M2m / .Z2 / .Z2m through the CAN
bus. In this case, the speed of stage travel can be
adjusted via the TFT display according to the
magnification of the seleceted objective (see
Section 4.8.6.1).
If the objectives are specified when you switch on
the stand (.M2 / .M2m / .Z2 / .Z2m), the optimum
speed of stage travel is calculated directly.
However, you may change (and store) this speed, if
necessary.
4.6.3
CAN/USB converter
On manual stands, CAN bus stages (432024-9903-
000 or 432026-9000-000) can be directly
connected to the PC via the CAN/USB converter.
Unlike motorized stands, the speed of stage travel
cannot be adjusted depending on magnification.
•
Use the CAN bus cable to connect the CAN
connector of the mechanical stage (4-16/
1
) with
the CAN connector of the CAN/USB converter
(4-17/
1
).
•
Use the USB cable to connect the USB-
connector of the PC with the CAN/USB
converter (4-17/
3
).
•
Connect the DC voltage input terminal of the
CAN / USB converter (4-17/
2
, 24 V DC / 1.25 A)
to the plug-type power supply output (Output
24 V DC, 1.25 A). Then plug that power supply
into the power outlet.
