This combined teaching set provides a complete solution to teaching analogue and digital motor control. It includes a DC motor control module, command potentiometer, PID controller module, input/output interface module and curriculum manuals in pdf format. A power supply unit and connection leads are also provided.

Typical activities include:

• Describe the Main Elements of a PID Controller
• Investigate the data capture features of a digital storage oscilloscope
• Conduct simple step, ramp, and frequency response tests
• Demonstrate Proportional Speed control
• Outline the reasons for adding velocity feedback
• Demonstrate the change in following error when transient velocity feedback replaces velocity feedback
• Discuss the effects of noise when subjected to derivative action
• Demonstrate various combinations of PID control
