Motion Control
Precision XY positioning for repeatable inspections
The Optysys gantry system uses a GRBL-powered XY stage to move the camera with sub-millimeter precision. Position the camera anywhere in the work area using keyboard controls, jogging, or direct coordinate input.
Movement Modes
Multiple ways to position your camera
Whether you need quick repositioning or fine-grained control, Optysys provides the right movement mode for every inspection task.
- Jog ControlShort and long jog distances with configurable speeds. Hold Shift for precision slow movement. Full keyboard and numpad support.
- Rapid MovesG0 rapid positioning for quick camera relocation. Move instantly to any XY coordinate within the work area.
- HomingStandard and reverse homing routines with limit switch polling. Return to a known reference position at any time.
- Center PositionOne-button centering moves the camera to the exact middle of the work area. Ideal for starting a new inspection.

Real-Time Monitoring
Always know where you are
Optysys continuously polls the GRBL controller for real-time position data and state information. The current XY coordinates are displayed in the interface, updated at configurable refresh intervals. The system tracks all GRBL states -- Idle, Run, Hold, Jog, Alarm, Door, Check, Home, and Sleep -- and provides visual feedback so operators always know the system status.
