Function
7.2
function of the position control
The position sensor records the current position (POS) of the pneumatic actuator. The position controller compares
this actual position value with the set-point value (CMD) which is a standard signal. If there is a control difference
(Xd1), the actuator is aerated and deaerated via the control system. In this way the position of the actuator is changed
until control difference is 0. Z1 represents a disturbance variable.
