Abstract
A control for controlling an output of a system of an automotive vehicle having an electric-operated control device that controls an output of a system of the automotive vehicle in accordance with an electric control signal comprising a waveform comprising voltage pulses applied to the device. An electric control, including a processor, for developing the electric control signal from a primary control signal and a secondary control signal. The processor causes the secondary control signal to selectively interact with the primary control signal in developing the electric control signal such that at certain times, the electric control signal is developed from the primary control signal alone, and at certain other times, the electric control signal is developed by interaction of the secondary control signal with the primary control signal.
