Single-Axis Motion Controller
for Delay Line Stages
1.0 Introduction
The DL controller uses the “Communications and CDC Control” USB-IF class. The
driver for this USB class is included in windows but a custom file .inf is needed for
windows 7 and 8. In Windows 10, a new INF, Usbser.inf, has been added that loads
Usbser.sys automatically as the function driver.
We do not manage the automatic installation of the .inf file on your PC, but the files
exist on CD, in the folder: DL Controller\USB driver
Please follow this note to install your USB driver.
