Abstract
A control device for a actuator applied in a transmission includes a maximum electric current value detecting device that detects a maximum electric current value supplied to the actuator. The maximum electric current value detecting device includes a determining unit, an electric current supplying unit, a detecting unit, and a setting unit. The determining unit determines a target electric current value supplied to the actuator, the electric current supplying unit supplies electric current to the actuator on the basis of the target electric current value determined by the determining unit, the detecting unit detects the maximum electric current value actually supplied to the actuator independently of the target electric current value determined by the determining unit, and the setting unit sets the maximum electric current value supplied to the actuator on the basis of the maximum electric current value detected by the detecting unit.
