Patent ID: 7865649

Claim:
A control system for controlling a machine, comprising: a module for reproducing a transmitter signal; a drive device; a control device for controlling the machine, wherein the control device interprets a configuration of the module and a configuration of the drive device in an identical manner; a first position regulating device within the control device; a second position regulating device within the control device; a data bus connecting the drive device and the control device to transmit a first desired value from the first position regulating device to the drive device and to transmit a first actual value from the drive device to the first position regulating device, wherein the first desired value is based upon a guide value predefined by the control device; a transmitter coupled to the drive device and to the machine; a data bus connecting the module and the control device and configured to transmit a second desired value from the second position regulating device to the module, wherein the module determines a reproduced transmitter signal from the second desired value, which is based upon the guide value, wherein the determination is based upon a simulation of a control characteristic of a machine axle, and to transmit a second actual value, based upon the determined value, from the module to the second position regulating device; and a further control device connected to the module to receive a value based upon the second actual value.
