Automated control system of a manipulator

This work is dedicated to the creation of the manipulator control system. In the manipulator we used servo drive group. The automatic control system consists of a personal computer and the controller of servo. We describe the principles of operation and control of servo drive group. We used proportional-integral-differential controller to control motors. We describe a method that allows to debug and test the control system, with the use of virtual simulation. We created a controller after debugging the control system on the virtual model. We implemented control of servo drive group. We used the created control program of microcontroller. The proposed method allows to test the control system before the production of electronic devices. You can use this method of virtual simulation of control systems in the development of various control systems. Method can be used to control systems in which the commands are given from computer via a USB-port.
