Mini System Testbed (MSTB) Goals

General Goals

• Test functionality of three entire modules (six boards).
• Test production cobra performance to keep up with EM cobras and shipping requirements.
• Test electronics and FPGA functionality across several boards.
• Test MPS functionality across boards.
• Test obstacle avoidance for dense setting.

Metrology Measurements

• Do we have sufficient tooling to get metrology for rails in the instrument?
• Test tooling for automated generation of metrology measurements.

Convergence Testing

• Test target convergence of minisystem.
• Test improvement of target convergence using automated motor map updating.
• Automate error analysis for flawed positioner behaviour.

Obstacle Avoidance

• Test obstacle avoidance in mini system testbed
• Optional: Measure performance of obstacle avoidance.

Collision testing (done with EM rail)

1. Measure baseline fiber tilts at home position.
2. Run a bunch of moves with collisions.
3. Return to home positions and measure tilts again to see if plastic deformation occurred.
