COM4LAB Course: Introduction to Control Engineering

The COM4LAB course Introduction to Control Engineering is the first course to the control engineering. The basic concepts and laws of control engineering are explained and practically devised using a number of experiments. The course comprises 12 chapters.

The course covers the following topics:

• open-loop control
• closed-loop control
• analysis of controlled systems
• controlled systems with compensation
• higher-order controlled systems
• controlled systems without compensation
• controller types
• P, I, PI, PD and PID control
• digital control

The course …

• can be displayed and filled out on your own tablet/smartphone/laptop.
• is platform-independent - a current browser is sufficient.
• can be distributed to students via QR codes.
• enables interactive experimenting: The measured values from the Master Unit are automatically made available for evaluation in tables and diagrams. The analysis and documentation of the experiment on the student device can be done at school or at home.
• can be edited and thus adapted to your own lesson plan.
