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.
