Abstract
A method for regulating an actuator or valve, wherein to execute a regulating function of the actuator or a valve function of the valve an actuating pulse is used, which is fed to the actuator or valve, characterized in that between at least two consecutive actuating pulses at least one additional pulse or a stochastic signal is fed to the actuator or valve.
Claims4
A method for regulating an actuator or valve, comprising the steps of:
- transmitting a series of actuating pulses to the actuator or valve;
- and,
- transmitting an additional pulse or a stochastic signal to said actuator or valve between at least two of said actuating pulses, wherein said additional pulse or said stochastic signal acts neutrally in terms of regulating function with respect to the actuator, and wherein said additional pulse acts neutrally in terms of valve function with respect to the valve, and wherein said additional pulse causes a sound to be emitted from the actuator or valve.
