Abstract:
The invention relates to a positioning device ( 120, 154 ), for example for testing, comprising a micromechanical positioning actuator ( 130 ) for causing movement of a probe ( 150, 151 ) with respect to a target ( 110 ), a positioning controller ( 145 ), the positioning controller ( 145 ) having an output coupled to the actuator ( 130 ) for controlling the movement, and the positioning controller ( 145 ) having a steering input ( 156 ) for receiving a steering signal to the positioning controller ( 145 ), and the positioning controller ( 145 ) arranged to control the movement based on the steering signal. The measurement device may have memory for storing positioning control instructions ( 300 ). The positioning controller ( 145 ) may be arranged to control said movement based on said steering signal and said positioning control instructions ( 300 ).

Claim (Index 15):
A control unit for controlling a measurement and positioning system, comprising:\n an interface for receiving user input from a user for controlling a measurement: a processor and a memory: computer program code in said memory, said code arranged to, when executed on said processor, cause said control unit to determine positioning control instructions based on said received user input, wherein said positioning control instructions comprise computer-readable instructions suitable for use by a positioning controller of a measurement device in controlling movement of a micromechanical positioning actuator based on steering signals from at least one other device over a local communication connection comprising a local communication network for carrying communication messages, wherein said other device is a micromechanical positioning device, a measurement device or a stimulus device operating on said target: and an instruction interface for providing said positioning control instructions to at least one positioning device of said measurement and positioning system.
