CHAPTER 4—THE CONTROLLER OPERATION TRUE/FALSE 1. T The controlled variable must deviate from the set point in an on/off controller to cause controlled action to occur. 2. T A differential gap in an on/off controller is desirable because it extends the life of equipment. 3. T In some process control applications, a steady-state error is required to cause equilibrium in the system. 4. F A small steady-state error in a position-type motion control system is acceptable. 5. F The integral mode is effective in systems that require a fast response to the command signal. 6. T A position-type motion control system is in an instability condition when overshoot and oscillations occur. 7. T Steady-state error is also referred to as offset. 8. T To correct the steady-state error, an integral amplifier is added to the proportional system. MULTIPLE CHOICE 1.
