We developed EPICS and TANGO drivers for the Automation1 motion

control platform in partnership with laboratory control system experts

at Argonne National Laboratory and Observatory Sciences.

This means the motor drivers are ready to use and have an open

source interface. Automation1 also has .NET, C and Python APIs for

building Windows and Linux applications.

EPICS and TANGO provide a common language for scientists using

experimental science facilities. Our Automation1 motion control 

platform is the premier standard in precision motion control and

includes new PWM and linear amplifier technology, superior configuration

and setup tools, absolute encoder support, the innovative fiber-optic

HyperWire motion bus, and our Position Synchronized Output (PSO)

feature that provides process triggers based on actual position—making

detector triggering and position capture easy.
