Summary
The course is designed for students of the first year of master's study at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. After completing this subject the student should have a more detailed knowledge of the technical means used in control circuits and monitoring, configuration and control systems. It is an extension of the knowledge of students acquired in the subject "Automation Technology" in the bachelor study. Part of the course is devoted to the processing of el. signals in control circuits.
