Xmath Interactive Control Design Module

Notice that having the MIMO Plot window on the screen may increase the
required computational response time of ICDM. Closing the window using
the Special option of the MIMO Plot menu bar will then result in a
speed-up.

History Window

The History window is exactly the same in SISO and MIMO modes.

Alternate Plant Window (MIMO Version)

The MIMO version of the alternate plant window differs from the SISO
version. For a MIMO plant there are many parameters that the user might
want to vary in a robustness analysis, for example, the gain in each actuator,
the gain in each sensor, various poles, zeros, and their residues for each
entry of P, and so on. There are so many parameters that the user might
want vary in MIMO robustness analysis that no simple user-interface could
suffice. Instead, the user manipulates the plant in Xmath in the ways
appropriate for the problem at hand, and simply reads in the set of alternate
