The driver framework implements the hardware/firmware reference of the Zaber Technologies Inc. T-LSM compatible translation stages as described on "http://www.zaber.com/wiki/Manuals/T-LSM#Detailed_Command_Reference".

Devices listed on "http://www.zaber.com/support/?tab=Device%20ids" are supported, but only T-LSM stages have been tested. Double check the parameters in "ZaberDeviceList.m" for your model. New devices can be added to this file, which has to be executed once to produce the relevant file "ZaberDevices.mat"

"ZaberTest.m" contains possible calls to all functions, so please don't run the full script via F5 or the "Play" button.

Help Texts are thankfully taken from the Zaber wiki page.

Implementation of all functions with alias number and error handling proved to be too complex for Instrument Control Toolbox instrument drivers - so these are just m-files which require only a serial port object and the function input parser functionality of Matlab.
