"When you turn on a machine you expect it to perform a specific task
in the way that you intended. This applies equally to your own domestic
food mixer or to a complex computer-controlled manufacturing line. You
expect the machine to stop and start when you want it to and run at the
speed and power that gives you the desired product or results. These
requirements are achieved by the machine's control system. Because this
is hidden within the complexity of the machine it is often overlooked by
the user who may only consider the control system as the push button
that stops and starts the machine. Many control systems are complicated
and handle thousands of individual signals, others are simple with only
one command, but they can all be considered as the medium that carries
the message around the machine from where it is initiated to the point
where some response to the signal takes place." - Paul Makin, Chairman
ISO/TC 199, Safety of machinery.
