Newport 860-C2 motion controller. Tested with actuators, partially
functional, and in good physical condition.
There is an issue with the channel 1(2) velocity / step size adjustment for reverse direction. It appears as if the zero-point is shifted and, for the lower half of the range, actuators actually move on the opposite (forward) direction. Repair or use as-is.
The 860-C2 is a 2-axis motion controller designed to drive both the 860A-1616
series low speed actuators (860A-025, 05, 05MM, 1, 2, and 4), as well as the
860A-1624 series high speed actuators (860A-1HS and 2HS). The 860-C2 will also
drive the RSX and RSA motorized rotary stages. Two axes may be controlled
simultaneously, in either RUN or JOG mode.
Up to four motion devices can be hooked up to the controller, certain
pairs of them can be controlled simultaneously (see user manual for details).
Computer interface is via parallel port.
