-
Rootlocus: Set the maximum allowed gain, Kmax in rootlocus. The
rootlocus is plotted for the gain range (0,Kmax).
- Magnitude plot: Set the minimum frequency, maximum frequency and
the frequency step for the (open loop frequency) Magnitude plot. The unit for
the frequency is rad/sec.
- Nyquist-Nichols plot: Frequency settings similar to above, for
Nyquist plot and Nichols plot.
- Bode plot: Frequency settings for the (closed loop) Bode plot.
- Dynamic response: Set the maximum simulation time and the
timestep for all dynamic responses (impulse, step, ramp, arbitrary
input, sinusoidal input).
- Sensitivity plot: Frequency settings for the sensitivity plot.
- Graphics attributes: Graphics attributes like font, colour etc
can be set from here.
- Gain configuration: Two options are possible for using rltool
(a) Gain, K, is in the forward path.
(b) Gain is in the feedback path.
The default is (a).
Selecting a particular gain configuration also results in that being
displayed in the control center. For example, figure 2.2
shows that the current mode is ``Gain in forward path''.
- Browser path: Applicable only for *nix systems. You can set a
default browser path for viewing this HTML manual while running
rltool. The default browser is mozilla (only because this browser
happens to be bundled into most *nix systems that I have seen). You
can, for instance, type the full path to konqueror, or Opera, or any
other web browser. This browser will be used to open the HTML manual
while running rltool. Also see ``Help ®HTML manual''
