function of the position control

The position sensor records the current position (

POS) of the pneumatic actuator. The position controller compares

this actual position value with the set-point value (

CMD) which is a standard signal. If there is a control difference

(Xd1), the actuator is aerated and deaerated via the control system. In this way the position of the actuator is changed
until control difference is 0. Z1 represents a disturbance variable.
