ohjauskomennon

Ohjauskomento is a Finnish term used to describe a signal or instruction that directs a system or device to change its state or behavior. It is commonly encountered in engineering, automation, robotics, information technology, and related fields, where precise commands are required to operate actuators, controllers, or software processes.

The word is a compound formed from ohjaus (control or guidance) and komento (command). The genitive form ohjauskomennon is used to express possession or a relationship to the command, for example ohjauskomennon lähetys (the transmission of the control command) or ohjauskomennon vaikutus (the effect of the control command).

In practice, ohjauskomennot are transmitted as signals within control loops and automation systems. In robotics and mechatronics, they may be digital or analog instructions that steer motion or regulate actuators. In aviation, maritime, or automotive contexts, ohjauskomennot refer to commands issued to autopilots, steering systems, or control units. In software and communications protocols, an ohjauskomento can modify mode, state, or operation of a system or component.

Related terms include käsky (command) and ohjausviesti (control message). The term emphasizes the directive aspect of a command within a control context, distinguishing it from broader instructions or informational messages.
