Procedure
1. Referring to Figure 1, arrange the modules, including coupling of U-158 to U-161, and
connect them together.
2. Set U-152 switch to “a” and U-151 to “10”. Turn the power of U-156 on. Set U-157 dial
to 180 degrees.
3. Adjust U-153 to make the output of U-154 zero. Once the adjustment is done, do not alter
U-153 setting.
4. Set U-151 to “9”. Within ±20° from the original 180° setting, turn U-157 either
clockwise or counter clockwise, and see if U-158 follows the movement. U-158 motion
should lag U-157. In case U-158 leads U-157, switch the wires of U-161 motor.
5. Turn U-157 clockwise from 0°position by 20° increment up to 160°, measure the angle of
U-158 at each position of U-157. Repeat the measurements with U-157 turned counter-
clockwise. Calculate the offset error angle between U-157 and U-158 at each position.
6. Increase the system gain by setting U-151 to 5 and 1. At each U-151 setting, repeat Step 5
experiment. Observe the change in offset error angle as a function of the system gain.
7. Plot the results of Steps 5 and 6. Plot all the three settings curves (setting 9,5 and 1)
within the same graph.
Measurements
Question
How does the system gain affect the offset error? And Why?
