Yes Doug,

Have you worked on control systems that cycled or hunted? An example of
how difficult it can be to get forces to equalize smoothly?

That is why PB, Reset, & Dev have been added to those systems


Proportional Band also known as Gain

Reset rate can be a very effective way of stopping the
system from hunting, but can also be over done so that the
system is either too fast or too slow... ask Bobsprit which,
after all I've been busted for talking gibberish.

Get him to explain what Dev stands for and what it does too.
I'd like to read that myself.
