Abstract
For controlling a solenoid actuator in PID control mode in response to input control information, the temperature of the coil of the solenoid actuator is detected or estimated, and the constant or constants necessary for PID control calculation are determined taking into account the resulting temperature. The input control information is subjected to the processing operation for PID control operation by the use of the determined constant or constants, whereby desired PID control characteristics can be obtained irrespective of changes in the temperature of the coil of the solenoid actuator. As a result, in particular, the step response and other dynamic characteristics can be improved.
