ThorLabs SC10 Shutter Controller Overview
Features:
- Automated Computer Control Capability
- On/Off Times from 1 ms to 999.999 s
- Input and Output Triggers
The front control panel allows the user to directly program and monitor the shutter open and close times. In addition, modes such as run continuous (auto), single shot, and repeat are selected via the front panel interface. The repeat mode allows the user to repeat the displayed open and close sequence from 1 to 99 times.
The unit can be triggered from a TTL input. The TTL input may also be configured as external gate where the control of the SH05 and SH1 output will follow the TTL input. The unit may also be controlled and operated from a remote RS232 interface. All of the provisioning and control can be programmed using a command line editor, or from the stand alone PC application software supplied with the unit.
When used with the SH05 and SH1 shutter the unit detects the presence of the unit and provides an alarming/monitor feature to insure the status of the shutter agrees with the output of the controller. When the SH05 and SH1 is present the output trigger follows the actual state of the SH05 and SH1, this can be used for triggering other devices or for monitoring the performance of the shutter. When the controller is used without a shutter the TTL output signal represents the precise programmed output of the controller.
A key lock and an interlock function are also provided on the SC10.
The SC10 provides drive and output pulses that have 0.001 second resolution and 0.0002 second accuracy for both the ON (open) and OFF (close) time. Though the controller has this accuracy the resulting operation of a shutter differs due the mechanical and electrical properties of the shutter.
The ThorLabs SC10 Shutter Controller may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Don’t worry about damage to your items during shipping – the box ours came in could have taken a beating and would have still survived!
- Shelby G.
The customer service representative was great. She couldn’t answer my question but connected me to an engineer who made sure I was ordering the right part. Shipping was fast too.
- Arvind P.
We have some test equipment in our lab from the 1990's that stopped working about 2 years ago. It sat in the corner collecting dust, but we took on a project last month that required more machines. After talking to Artisan, we found out we could get parts to fix our machine for much less than buying a new one!
- Matt R. Google
I found that the staff is very knowledgeable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for this type of equipment!
