I had the same problem before. The test button didn't drive the stage. When I was doing mapping, it just moved one line and stopped. Once I set up the backlash from stage command, there was no problem. I guess your problem may be different from mine although it did one line mapping too.

Hi,

the test button does the stage backlash just fine, I also made sure that the backlash values in stg-cmd are all set ok. Point analysis work fine, it only occurs in the stage mapping.

Thanks,

Anette

If you press the test button from joystick, does the stage move? If not, you have to set up backlash from the stage command manually.

Subject: [PROBEUSERS] Stage mapping acquisition woes

Hello Probeusers!

the stage mapping on my JEOL JXA-8900R just started to show the most peculiar behavior. No matter the mapping conditions, it acquires only a single line and uses the stage backlash once a second. The amount of the backlash seems to correlate with the individual set width of the map. The resulting map shows the correct amount of pixels but obviously is not the way I want to acquire maps.

I tried various settings, made sure that backlash values are set correct, rebooted whatnot.

Potentially important information: We just had to disable the linear encoder for the stage (anyone has a spare linear encoder board?) on my machine (although that should only affect X and Y) and I am not sure if it is related to this. It is not the first time that I acquired maps since the loss of the linear encoder though and it was ok before.

Has anyone ever seen this? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Anette
