Maybe Aristides or Stephanie can tell us what is different in this version, because I know we all worked on it for a couple of years.

While many of the experiments follow "Industrial Control", its replacement "Process Control" is nearly a total rewrite. This approach of this text was to show not only ability to perform monitoring and control with the BASIC Stamp, but to delve deeper into the electronics and principles. From PWM to Op-Amps, transistor theory, etc, we have tried to provide a good background in the electronics of control in conjunction with the programming.
StampPlot Pro is used with the free educational/home license for displaying a greater variety of information and for interactive control so the user can adjust PID while in operation for example, with discussions to support interactive control.
A couple other highlights that pop to mind is the software-controllable spanning and offsetting of the ADC0831, and use of the integrated IR pair to make those reflective switch experiments easier and show how to provide best sensitivity and responstivity. It's been fairly well tested, we've used it our "Process Control Electronics" lab for the past 3 years while it was going through writing and proofing.
For the educator, an instructor's guide with questions and answers are available through the Parallax Educator's Forum.
I hope ya'll enjoy it and find it useful. Our thanks to Parallax for seeing this through, and especially to Stephanie, Rich, Andy and of course Ken.
