This page describes the intended eventual layout of the Zaber wiki. It is also a good place to suggest/develop ideas for new customer wiki content or features.

Goals to keep in mind

• Users should be able to find all the information specific to their device and not have to sift through unrelated stuff.
• Users should have access to a downloadable, printable PDF version of all manuals. Links should have readable URL's in at least some cases.
• Editors should not have to maintain duplicate information on the wiki.
• Editors should not be any more confused than necessary when editing the wiki.
• We should be able to generate the Zaber.dll command help text from the wiki content.

T-CD

T-CD: Manual control section: talks about plunger. There is no plunger in T-CD.

this could be a problem for other motion products... do they really have "plungers"? I replaced "plunger" with "actuator".

T-CD can continue to use the information because the "stall" symptoms would be the same for almost any motion device connected to it.

T-NM

• T-NM a lot of content that applies to linear actuators do not apply to T-NM

I've made some changes, but possibly not all... please specify. Mav 15:42, 20 August 2007 (PDT)

T-CON

• T-CON's user's manual needs updating. Low priority.

T-JOY

• T-JOY default settings: expand.

where can I find them?Leigh8959 19:28, 3 August 2007 (PDT)

• Return settings - example give refers to acceleration, n/a to joystick.

Bruce todo

• Appendix A: Default settings need flushing out.
• Warranty - T-CON3 has a slightly different warranty phrase. Wonder if we have different warranty statements for different products? For example, the guarantee of 50,000 cycles only applies to T-LA, but some of our other products have more than that (like 1M cycles), or does not apply (T-CON, T-JOY).

General

• Bottom of all manuals: Category: Joystick Instructions, Motorized Device Instructions.

this category is included here because some of the templates use that category (ie some MM commands are also Joystick commands) not sure what to do about this. - Rob

• At all times keep in mind that the reader may be looking at a printed PDF version of the content. Try not to exclude them by hyper-linking text without displaying the url, or similar stuff.
• Table titles should be bold/dark grey consistently.

this is a bit of a limitation in my excel to wiki code. Mav 16:45, 20 August 2007 (PDT)
