The GUNT Training System Position Control, HSI offers fundamental experiments on position regulation using a moving slide driven by a toothed belt as the controlled system. The slide’s position is measured by a rotary encoder, which feeds its output to a software controller. The controller adjusts a motor actuator to move the slide to new positions along the belt, automatically switching off when the slide reaches either end. The current position can be read directly on a steel scale. The system provides real-time control response displayed as time-dependent graphs, with a transparent protective cover for safe observation. Connected via USB to a PC, it integrates with GUNT’s Hardware/Software Integration (HSI) software, supporting programmable reference values and simulations up to 2nd order control systems. Remote learning and multi-user observation via local network enable flexible, collaborative training.
