ABSTRACT:
A closed-loop control system that remotely controls a device over a distributed communications system includes a device that is connected to the distributed communications system and that generates super-media feedback signals. A computer is connected to the distributed communications system and includes a controller that provides super-media feedback. The computer generates and transmits command signals using the controller to the device and outputs the super-media feedback signals to the controller. The closed-loop control system is event-based to ensure stability and synchronization of the closed-loop system.
