Applied Cybernetics Provides
total control system requirements generation, preliminary
design and tradeoffs, and full system design, implementation,
validation and production. The following areas are typical
of a control system analysis and design:
1. Housing. Provides
structure and volume needed to contain and physically
protect control system components.
2. Power Distribution.
Converts external electrical
power to internal power requirements and provides to
components.
3. Controller. Designs
utilizing Customized Controller Board (CCB)or standard
Single Board Controllers (SBC) or Programmable Logic
Controllers (PLC). Typical controller layout:
4. Optional Expansion Board for Customer
Inputs/Outputs (I/O) Provides
additional
user interfacing for data, feedback, and commands.
5. Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
Provides
operator interaction for monitoring processes, adjusting
operation, controlling output, and providing safety.
Typical interface layout:
6. Cabling/Mass Termination
Wiring Provides
electrical signal and power distribution through out
the controller housing.
7. Electromechanical/Hydraulic/Pneumatic
Drivers Provides
physical implementation of system operation controlled
by computer programming.
