Description Class NoMalfunctionActuator

INTENTION

This class provides all definitions to describe an actuator if it has no malfunction.

It is distinguished between two values:

• the value of the phenomenon as it exists in the real world (envEntity) (which can never be visible for the machine or controlled directly by the machine), and
• the value adjusted by the machine (adjustedEntity).

Note that this class can be used to describe an actuator that already exists in the environment. Therefore the value adjusted by the actuator, namely adjustedEntity, has the scope machine controlled, visible for the machine. If the actuator does not exist, i.e. the actuator itself has to be developed, the scope of adjustedEntity has to be environment controlled, not visible for the machine.
