Abstract

A method is provided for controlling displacement of a variable displacement pump coupled to a load. The method includes determining an electrical signal to be applied to a proportional solenoid for a desired pump displacement based on known pump characteristics. The electrical signal is provided to the proportional solenoid. The displacement of the variable displacement pump is controlled based on the electrical signal to the proportional solenoid.
