Of a control element or a controlling system, the nature of the change of the output effected by the input.

Note:: The output may be a signal or the value of a manipulated variable. The input may be the control-loop feedback signal when the command is constant, an actuating signal, or the output of another control element. One use of control action is to effect compensation.
