🔍 Key Concepts

• automatic control systems terminology (set point, controlled variable, error, steady-state) • difference between temporary error during change vs. permanent remaining error after system settles • how a controller that is not perfectly tuned may leave a small, constant difference from set point

💭 Think About

• Which term describes a remaining difference after the system has reached steady state, not just during a transient change? • Look at each choice: which ones are clearly not a difference between two values, and which ones are? • In control theory, what do we call a constant, residual error that stays even when the process is otherwise stable?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure the term refers to a steady-state condition, not during adjustment or oscillation. • Confirm that the definition involves a difference between set point and actual value, not the set point itself. • Eliminate any option that is usually defined as a range where no corrective action occurs rather than a specific difference.
