Each controller includes:
modern dual-processor PC in 19” rack server housing with TFT monitor
PCI-card interface with SXM-DSP for data exchange between PC and controller &lockin amplifier
an open source software under Windows XP Prof., which supplies all basic functions
for any SPM application but is also suitable for other applications.

Selected Features
(see also Software):
simultaneous acquisition of almost unlimited number of pictures
(limitation starts for example at 20 pictures with 512 pixel due to the PC)
integrated distance control (IP controller) with over 6 different feedback modes
slope correction during scan
free parameter input during scan
4 different types of spectroscopy (any signal vs. distance, any signal vs voltage, ...)
computer controlled coarse positioning and automated approach
adapable to almost all hardware due to
free scalabity of all channels in physical units
offset correction for each hardware channel
sign inversion possible
relation between hardware channel and name is open
additional adjustment for user specific setups:
number of steps for stepper motor approach,
delays and repeat times for slip stick controls
