摘要:AbstractThe paper presents remote control of a new laboratory experiment that was built at the department. It consists of one propeller that is able to move in vertical direction. The task is to control the position of the propeller. For this purpose, the PID controller was used. Since the experiment was realized remotely it was necessary to solve both the server and the client side. The client part was formed by the environment of the presented online laboratory manager. The server part was supported both by commercial (Matlab) and free (Scilab) simulation environment, as well. The user can choose which one he or she prefers to use.
