Scope move z

Moves the microscope of the probe station vertically to a given z position.

Description

The test moves the motorized scope of the connected probe station on the z axis. The target position is interpreted relative to a selectable reference point:

Reference point	Meaning
Zero	Absolute position in machine coordinates
Relative	Movement relative to the current scope position

Unlike lateral scope movements, z movements do not support the reference points "Home" and "Center".

Input parameters

Parameter	Description
Probe station	The probe station whose scope shall be moved.
z-axis movement	The movement/position on the z axis.
Reference point	The reference point for the movement (Zero, Relative).

Output parameters

This test does not store output parameters.

Supported devices

All probe stations with a motorized scope, e.g. MPI SENTIO based probe stations.

Example

Select the probe station, set a z movement of -100 µm and choose the reference point "Relative" to lower the scope by 100 µm.
