3. Software

The controller (GC-201, 101) comes with dedicated control software “GALILEO (Galvano Integrated

Leading Operator (GALILEO).”

GALILEO makes the following controller operations easy:

Parameter setting

Servo tuning (Frequency characteristic measurement)

Status check

Operation setting (Step movement and raster scan)

Most of the functions that can be performed by GALILEO can also be executed by external command

input through RS-232C connection without using GALILEO. This manual describes operations both by

GALILEO and by external command input.

Note: The following function can be executed by GALILEO only, and not by external command input:

Frequency characteristic measurement

Supported OS MS-Windows 2000, XP, Vista

Connection port RS-232C port (with USB-RS-232C conversion cable)

Insert the accessory application CD into the CD drive.

Execute Setup.exe in the GALILEO folder.
