  • Patent number: 8924028
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes, among other things, a method. The method may include receiving an instruction to actuate a valve. The method may also include receiving a first period of time. The method may also include applying energy to the valve for the first period of time. The method may also include comparing a first state of the valve with a state in the instruction. The method may also include determining a second period of time by increasing the first period of time. The method may also include applying energy to the valve for the second period of time. The method may also include determining that a second state of the valve matches the state in the instruction.
