Network control system

A network control system for packet-transmitting a manipulated variable (“MV”) of a controller, which is calculated based on a deviation between a processed variable from a sensor that measures a physical quantity of a controlled object plant and a set value at a predetermined sampling period, to an actuator provided on a controlled object plant side via a network, and causing the actuator to provide the manipulated variable to the controlled object plant, the network control system comprising:

• an MV complementing unit that provides a complementary value of the manipulated variable to the actuator when an error occurs in a packet transmission;
• an MV buffering unit that answers back trend data of the manipulated variable being provided to the controlled object plant from the actuator or the complementary value being complemented by the MV complementing unit for the actuator, to the controller via the network;
• and
• an MV compensating unit that corrects a calculation of the manipulated variable of the controller based on the trend data or the complementary value being answered back,
• wherein the controller transmits separately a first manipulated variable corresponding to an amount of change in a set value in a differentiating operation and a second manipulated variable corresponding to an amount of change in the set value except the amount of change in the set value in the differentiating operation, and
• the MV complementing unit provides a sum of the first manipulated variable and the second manipulated variable to the actuator as the complementary value when the packet transmission is in a normal state, and provides only the second manipulated variable to the actuator as the complementary value when the packet transmission is in an error state.
