Provides classes and enumerations to assist with use of Zaber motion devices. Supports both Zaber protocols and provides both protocol-specific interfaces and a generic interface for protocol-agnostic use of basic functionality. Unit of measure conversions are provided for many devices via a lookup table, which can be updated via an included Python script to pick up newly released product information.

This toolbox is deprecated; please use the Zaber Motion Library in new projects: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/72236-zaber-motion-library
