async STAR.move_channel_stop_disk_z(channel_idx: int, z: float, speed: float = 125.0, acceleration: float = 800.0, current_limit: int = 3)#

Move a channel’s Z-drive to an absolute stop disk position.

Communicates directly with the individual channel rather than through the master module.

Parameters:
  • channel_idx (int) – Channel index (0-based, backmost = 0).

  • z (float) – Target Z position in mm (stop disk).

  • speed (float) – Max Z-drive speed in mm/sec. Default 125.0 mm/s.

  • acceleration (float) – Acceleration in mm/sec². Default 800.0. Valid range: ~53.6 to 1609.

  • current_limit (int) – Current limit (0-7). Default 3.
