What differentiates Lightning^TM II from other servo technology on the market?

Lightning II systems incorporate six* differentiating elements:

• Encoder Position Detector - Advanced encoder technology and state-of-the-art galvo motor design provide ultra-high resolution and ultra-low drift, resulting in unsurpassed
• PWM Drive Output - Extremely efficient power transfer from the driver to the motor enables unmatched speed and accuracy even with very large
• Observer-based State-space Modeling - The control algorithms in the servo driver are tailored to a specific motor / mirror combination, which enables the servo to achieve maximum performance in speed and
• GSB Communication Protocol - The General Scanning Bus, a new bi-directional high speed serial communication protocol between controller and servo driver(s), delivers sophisticated control to the scanners, and status and streaming probe data to the
• ScanMaster Control Software - Utilizing a single USB connection between a computer and the scanning system, this revolutionary control software provides automation and optimization far better than any other
• TuneMaster II Setup Software - Automated and user-friendly tools help shorten optimized tune development, automate production tuning and improve
