Desk panel, control box, and controller: what are they?
Control (desk panel or switch)
The "control" is a simple device, like a desk panel or switch, that you use to operate a linear actuator. It lets you send basic commands, such as moving the actuator up or down. It is the part you interact with directly.
Controller (control box)
The "controller" or "control box" is the brain behind the system. It receives signals from the control and decides how the actuator should move, stop, or adjust. It processes these commands and ensures the actuator performs smoothly and accurately based on input from the control and sensors.
Linear actuator controller
The "linear actuator controller" is the device that manages the movement of the actuator. When you press a button on the control (like a desk panel), the controller processes this command and tells the actuator exactly how to move. It makes sure the actuator’s movements are smooth and precise, controlling things like speed and positioning. It acts as the middleman, translating your commands into actions the actuator can perform.
