The most recent addition to the new Picomotor controller/driver family, model 8743-CL is a 2-axis closed-loop intelligent motion controller/driver that provides fine tuning, absolute positioning, compact and low cost solution for driving New Focus closed-loop Picomotors products. 

It is a single-box solution that can be manually controlled with the New Focus 8758 hand control pad or computer controlled via USB, RS-485, or Ethernet communication interfaces using the Newport Motion Control Language (NMCL) command set. All three computer interfaces are well supported via WindowsTM DLL, sample LabVIEWTM VIs, and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) WindowsTM application with device auto-discovery feature.

Each model 8743-CL controller/driver has two 4-pin RJ-22 single output ports and two 25-pin D connector for the encoder signal that can be used with any single-channel closed loop Picomotor actuator at any given time.
