causing the output action can be used by applying a selected iteration weighting to the control algorithm so if it determined that temperature being set to a value is probably contributing to an output action a change to the weighting factor would lessen the call for an output action proportional to a desired level of reduction if it is determined that the probability of one certain inputs has changed then the control algorithm will automatically be modified to affect that new input to be the one that is used to be tied to an outputs reduction the output iteration weighting u2014 is the control value that is set in the configuration to influence a level of output activity it provides the amount in that will influence the control algorithm for an output to be forced to work to a damping factor is also involved for the for the sake of limiting runaway or oscillatory situations so if a weighing factor of 2 is used the input that is probably causing the output to be active will have its influence reduced so that the output is active 2 less than before in the course of meeting set points and checking for failures the invention utilizes the predictive capabilities of the system to u201c find.
