    The document summarizes the history of turbine controls from Mark I in 1966 to Mark VIe in 2004. Key developments include the introduction of solid-state components in Mark II, microprocessors in Mark IV, distributed control processors in Mark V, and upgradable CPUs and network connectivity in later models. Operator interfaces transitioned from analog meters and switches to digital monitors and PCs running Windows and Cimplicity GUI software.
