still result in some amount of overshoot and undershoot. We are accepting a wider

Modifying the program and StampPlot only requires a little code to adapt the BASIC
Stamp program and the StampPlot macro. Figure 7-9 is a flowchart representing the
control action. The allowable band must be read from StampPlot, values for Upper Trip
Point (UTP) and Lower Trip Point (LTP) calculated, and the heater controlled based on
these setpoints.
