Order Code: 52053
Name: PC Based Analog & Digital Motor Control Trainer
SPECIFICATION
Introduction:
Control systems are at the very heart of the technology-based world in which we live. As we grow increasingly reliant on the technology, we will depend to greater extent on the services of maintenance / repair engineers and technicians. The proposed Motor control trainer offers a progressive hand on approach to teaching control technology. The Motor control trainer has three levels of study, each level is based on a teaching set of control modules. Starting with basic practical introduction to analog control, advanced analog control using three-term controller and Digital control based on a Microprocessor system. The unit has an electro-mechanical unit containing an iron-less rotor DC motor, Analog & digital motor drive circuitry, 3 position Eddy current brake & sensors for speed and position.Virtual Control System Lab software is included in the system to perform all the experiments, so that dynamic results can be seen on PC , stored and analyzed.

When used in conjunction with a Windows TM based PC, the Simulated control laboratory performs the following functions simultaneously:
- Monitors the reference signal from the Command potentiometer.
- Provides a PID controller with adjustable parameters.
- Generates analog/digital signals to control the DC motor module.
- Responds to analog/digital feedback signals from the DC motor module.
- Displays all control and feedback signals on the PC screen.
Simulated Control Laboratory Software - SCLS
The Virtual control laboratory software is a comprehensive teaching package that is designed specifically for use with the motor control modules.
The main screen of the Virtual control laboratory software should be divided into four sections, viz. Control reference (input) signal, Controller, Plant & Display. Each of these may be configured independently by the user:
