From Bricks to Brains: The Embodied Cognitive Science of ...
The Homeostat automatically moderated the currents produced by its components. Each unit was equipped with a 25-valued uniselector or stepping switch, where each value was a randomly assigned resistance that mediated current.
Michael Wilson, Brian Dupuis, 2010

The Cybernetic Brain: Sketches of Another Future - Strona 104
They were controlled instead by the internal behavior of the homeostat. When the output current of the unit rose beyond some preset limit, relay F in figure 4.4c would close, driving the uniselector (via the coil marked G) to its next setting, thus ...
