Q

In an automation system, the effect of a control action sensed by a controller is known as __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• closed-loop control systems (how output is monitored and used) • difference between input commands and the system’s response • role of feedback in automatic control

💭 Think About

• In an automatic control loop, what signal tells the controller how well the system followed the command? • Which option names the signal that represents how the system actually responded, not what you wanted it to do? • In a typical controller diagram (input → controller → actuator → process → sensor → back to controller), what is the name of the path returning to the controller?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you distinguish between the desired value (what you want) and the measured result (what actually happened). • Check which term refers to the controller’s reference/target vs. the system’s actual output being sent back. • Verify which option is specifically associated with a closed-loop system, not just any signal.
