1.0 Note

This XPS Programmer's Manual describes all the functions available for the XPS family

of controllers.

NOTE

Not all below described functions are available for XPS standard controller. If you

are interested in a function that is described but not available for your controller,

please contact Newport.

NOTE

For more details on XPS features, please refer to XPS User’s Manual.

XPS Unified Programmer’s Manual

2.0 TCP/IP Communication

XPS is based on a 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet communication link with TCP/IP

protocol and uses a web site as the Graphical User Interface (GUI) to access all the

software tools and an FTP server for file transfer. This makes the XPS controller

independent of the user's operating system. When networked, Unix, Linux or Windows

users can access the same controller from any place in the world for remote control,

code development, file transfer or diagnostics. The completely object oriented approach

of the XPS firmware with powerful, multi-parameter Functions (commands) is also

much more consistent and intuitive to use than old-style mnemonic commands.

To connect to the XPS controller you must open a socketThe XPS allows up to 100

open sockets with 30 sockets communicating simultaneously.

Each Function returns a complete or error code. If successful, the return is 0 (zero). In

case of an error, the returned error code can be used for diagnosing the.

The function call is blocked until a reply is sent by the XPS, or until the timeout value is

reached. Running several processes in parallel (for instance getting the position while a

stage is moving), several sockets can be used in parallel. When using the XPS controller

with programming languages that do not support multiple sockets, the timeout value of

the function can be set to a low value (20 ms), in that case you cannot capture errors.

NOTE

When a communication ends with a time out fault, it could be caused by some

hardware failure or the timeout value is lower than the time needed by the

controller to execute the requested function.

For example, setting a timeout of one second and requesting a motion that requires

2 seconds will end with a timeout. In this situation the controller will continue the

move and when accomplished will send the response back to the host.

It is the host responsibility to take the appropriate actions to handle properly these

situations.

3.0 XPS .NET Software Drivers

3.1 How to Install .NET Drivers for XPS Controller

3.1.1 Requirements

.Net Framework is a programming infrastructure created by Microsoft for building,

deploying, and running applications and services that use .NET technologies such as

custom desktop applications.

The Windows PC computer requires having at least the .NET Framework installed and

you need to install either 32 bit (x86) or 64 bit (x64) .NET assembly depending on the

Windows version you are using.

When developing your application, refer to the programming environment

documentation to make the installed .NET assembly visible.

To communicate with the XPS controller you will need to:

• Use the OpenInstrument method to connect to the controller

• Communicate with the controller using any of its API e.g. FirmwareVersionGet

• Once your application terminates it needs to disconnect from the controller using the

CloseInstrument method. If it doesn’t close the communication channel and runs

many connections to the controller, it can run out of free channels and gets an error.

3 EDH0373En1023 — 01/18

XPS Unified Programmer’s Manual

3.1.1 Installing the 32 bit (x86) Windows Platform

The .NET assembly is in the controller in “/Public/Drivers” folder, refer to the

controller user’s manual for more details.

Download the “Newport.XPS.CommandInterface_x86.exe” to your computer.

Once downloaded, run it.

The .NET assembly “Newport.XPS.CommandInterface.dll” is installed in the GAC for

x86 platforms in

“C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_32\Newport.XPS.CommandInterface\”

folder and is ready for use.

3.1.2 Installing the 64 bit (x64) Windows Platform

The .NET assembly is in the controller in “/Public/Drivers” folder, refer to the

controller user’s manual for more details.

Download the “Newport.XPS.CommandInterface_x64.exe” to your computer.

Once downloaded, run it.

The .NET assembly “Newport.XPS.CommandInterface.dll” is installed in the GAC for

x64 platforms in

“C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_64\Newport.XPS.CommandInterface \”

folder and is ready for use.
