- CONTROL-SIM Version 2.0 Copywrite 1992 Roger W. Thompson
-
- CONTROL-SIM simulates operation of a simple plant control loop. It
- is intended to be used by engineers and students involved in
- practical digital control system design and application. Significant
- uses include:
-
- Tuning a controller
- Specification (modeling) of a plant response
- Evaluation of PID and other types of controllers
- Simulation of a typical bounded controller output and input
- Evaluation of effects of quantization and sample rate
- Time response of LaPlace transforms
- Conversion from LaPlace transforms to state equations
- Development of control algorithms (registered users only)
-
- The program is designed to be easy to use allowing the user to
- concentrate on control system performance characteristics rather than
- program commands and variables or extensive math. Full featured
- menu's and an initial (default) example permit the beginner to
- experiment quickly, while the more advanced user can create,
- evaluate, and save plant configuration files for future reference.
- CONTROL-SIM operation requires IBM compatible computer with EGA/VGA
- color display.
