Issue with units for moves with rotation stage #42

Closed manzelmi-thorlabs closed 7 months ago

manzelmi-thorlabs commented 7 months ago

I am using a BSC201 with an HDR50/M and want to set the velocity based on degrees per second rather than based on motor percentage. I tried using channel.SetVelocityParams_DeviceUnits() but I got an error that no attribute exist. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

To set the velocity in real world units (in this case degrees per second) you would use SetVelocityParams(Decimal maxVelocity, Decimal acceleration) or SetVelocityParams(VelocityParameters ^ velocityParameters). If you have any further issues with this feel free to reach out to your local tech support
