Welcome to Zaber Motion Library Documentation

This is the home of the Zaber Motion Library documentation.

Zaber Motion Library aims to provide an easy-to-use API for communication with Zaber devices.

Requirements

The library requires connected devices to be communicating using the Zaber ASCII Protocol. This communication protocol is the default for all Zaber X-Series devices, and can be enabled for any Zaber A-Series devices with Firmware version 6.14 or higher.

The library currently supports the Python, C#, Javascript, Java, C++, Swift, MATLAB and Octave programming languages and works on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. For a full list of supported platforms and environments, please visit this section.
