Positioner and its setting method

Abstract

A positioner and method for generating an output signal for setting a controlled object to a control condition corresponding to an input signal, including a memory unit for storing a conversion relation for converting the input signal to a command signal; a signal conversion unit for converting the input signal to the command signal based on the conversion relation; a control unit for generating the output signal for controlling the controlled object corresponding to the command signal; and a setting unit for adjusting the command signal to obtain a desired control condition for each of a plurality of selected input signals, thereby generating a modified conversion relation between the input signal and the command signal. The modified conversion relation generated by the setting unit is stored in the memory unit as the conversion relation.
