Newport ESP7000 Universal Motion Controller/Driver   For sale- a Newport ESP7000 Universal Motion Controller/Driver.  The controller is in good physical condition as I think you can see in the pictures.  HOWEVER, it has two issues that will probably require repair for it to be usable.  Both may be related to the power supply, which appears to be modular.  First, although the unit does power up, the display does not appear to be on (more on that momentarily).  Second, although the controller does power on it tends to switch into Standby mode after awhile.  Awhile can be anywhere from 30 seconds to several hours later.   I might ordinarily theorize that it was going into Standby mode because it wasn’t hooked to anything or because there was no activity.  But the shutdowns have come as I am actively trying to work the unit.  And when I first got it they were almost always within the first minute of powering it up.  It wasn’t until I had repeatedly powered it up that it started staying on longer (sometimes).   That allowed me the opportunity to notice that the display in fact was on, but it wasn’t backlit.  So I took some pictures of it with the lights out at night and as you can see it would appear to want to work, it’s just not doing a great job of it.  In normal room light you can’t see the display at all.  And yes, I did try adjusting the display.  Contrast worked just fine, backlighting produced no visible effect.   Perhaps it needs to be hooked up to a computer, looking for a computer input.  I doubt that is the case.  But it may well be that the backlighting simply isn’t getting what it needs from the power supply and so it can’t come on.  Replace the power supply and perhaps the display issue is resolved as well?  Pure speculation on my part.   The only other issue I noticed was that when I navigated into the various menus on the thing I couldn’t figure out a way to get back out.  Pressing the MENU button, which I would have thought would have taken you back to the main menu, that did nothing and as I recall did not get an audible confirmation when the button was pushed.  So it may have other issues, which is why I am selling it for parts or repair.  It has three 25281-01 boards mounted in the back; I assume each controls a single axis, and I also assume that if you bought them from Newport that you would pay more than I am asking here for the whole machine.   Untested other than as described and pictured, sold as is, and NO warranty is offered.  However, IF you pay the asking price and find it has a problem you cannot live with within 14 days of receipt you may return it.  Returns are ONLY allowed on Buy It Now Purchases.  Accepted Best Offers are strictly an as is sale, no returns allowed.  Return would be for a refund of the purchase price, not including shipping costs.   Just so that we are clear on that, this is an item that has not been thoroughly tested.  As such it may work fine or it may have problems, so any purchase entails a certain degree of risk.  If you Buy It Now your risk is limited to the shipping costs both ways.  If you submit an offer you do so knowing that you cannot return it.  In either case it is up to you to decide whether the risk level is acceptable to you, and if not you need to pass on this particular item.   Please check out my other listings for more interesting lab, test, and optical equipment.  Check back often!   Sold as is, as described, as pictured.  Potential buyers are asked to please make sure you have read the listing carefully, and understand what you are buying.  Ebay’s condition codes for used items, which I am now required to select from, might imply a degree of functionality that my limited time, knowledge, and facilities do not allow me to ascertain.  If the functional condition of the item is known it will be stated as such in the listing.  Unless a warranty is specifically offered returns are not accepted regardless of any implied functionality.   You are also encouraged to visit my “ME” page, where my terms, conditions, and philosophy of doing business are outlined.  I don’t think anything there is outside the bounds of normal e-commerce, but they are binding on the transaction.   Payment is expected within 7 days of the close of the sale and I need to hear from you within 3 days to confirm the transaction.  Please add $23.99 for shipping anywhere in the continental US.  International shipments, plus Alaska and Hawaii for actual shipping costs plus $5.   Ebay (in their infinite wisdom) forces me to include a “Handling Time” in the listing which they then factor into the delivery time.  As a default I use 5 days to allow for the worst case scenario, which would be that I am out of town when you buy and then can’t find the item when I get home.  In most cases I ship the next business day after payment is made, and sometimes things even go out the same day.  I’m just not willing to commit to that timeframe for every transaction.
