9.1 Operating modes

After a voltage cut-off, the positioner always starts up in the “A: AUTO“ operating mode (provided that initialisation has
already been carried out) and responds directly to the external set value signal.

9.1.1 Automatic operation (A:)AUTO)

Automatic operation is the normal operating mode. The initialised positioner responds to set value changes and adjusts the valve
accordingly.The + and ‫ ـ‬keys have no function in this operating mode.
The current position (x) is shown as a percentage in the display and also as a bar chart.
The lower line shows the current operating mode and at the right is the current set value (w) in percent.
By pressing the key the operating mode "B: MANUAL" is reached.

9.1.2 Manual operation (B: MANUAL)

With manual mode the valve can be adjusted manually. Pressing the + key opens a bracket at the set value. The digit to be
changed in the value must be selected using the key and set using the + or ‫ ـ‬keys. Then the cursor must be moved to the
right-hand bracket using the nd the set value confirmed using the + key. The valve is then moved into the set position.
By pressing the key the operating mode "C: CONFIG" is reached.

9.1.3 Configuration (C: CONFIG)

Various parameter values of the positioner can be changed in the configuration menu. To reach the configuration menu the
parameter "C: CONFIG" must be selected in the working level and then the key must be kept pressed for more than 3 seconds.
The parameter value appears in the top line, the name and number of the parameter appear in the bottom line. Operation is as

42: DeadBand
Positioner's dead band
The dead band shows the maximum permissible system deviation between actual value and set value.
During initialisation, on DEADBAND = Auto the dead band is matched to the requirements of the control circuit. In the other
discrete settings the fixed value for the dead band is used.
The height of the system deviation should always correspond to the requirements of the valve and the control circuit.
It is recommended that you do not set a value of < 1.0% since this could (especially for actuators with discontinuous
movement profiles) cause oscillating control characteristics. This could put a great deal of stress on the internal pilot
valves and cause them to reach the end of their service life more quickly.
Basically: the smaller the fixed value, the higher the wear and the shorter the service life. Therefore, the value should
be set only as accurate as needed.

43: PROP GAIN

Proportional amplification
Adjusting the proportional amplification Kp
Kp = 0.1...100.0
The height of the amplification should always correspond to the requirements of the valve and the control circuit. The optimum set-

The behaviour of the positioner is influenced as follows:

Automatic operation is the normal operating mode. The initialised positioner responds to set value changes and adjusts the valve
accordingly.The + - or ‫ ـ‬keys have no function in this operating mode.
The current position (x) is shown in the top right of the display and in the middle is the applied set value signal (w) as a percentage.
In the bottom line a help text is shown describing the currently selected parameter.
The SETUP menu is reached by pressing the key.
By pressing the key again the "Mode" parameter is reached.

11.2.3 Initialisation

Init All
Automatic or manual initialisation (adaptation of the positioner to the valve) is started.
The menus for starting automatic or manual initialisation are on the following pages.

Init All = Auto: Automatic initialisation

The positioner adapts to the valve when automatic initialisation is started. All parameters are automatically scanned.
This procedure can take a few minutes, dependent on the valve.

It may be necessary to close the internal positioner throttles a little (D1 for single acting actuators and D1, D2 for
double acting actuators) if the actuator volume is very low in order to increase the valve operating time.

Tip for use:

During automatic initialisation of actuators whose travel is not continuous (i.e. with undefined stops, e.g. with large size
butterfly valves) the end positions cannot be clearly detected.
In this case manual initialisation by the operator with sequential movement through the menu (next page) should be
used.

Init All = Man: Manual initialisation
When manual initialisation is started, the positioner runs through an initialisation program that is similar to the automatic
initialisation. However the different program steps for the manual initialisation must be started and confirmed by the operator using
the + key.
●● Manual initialisation should only be used if automatic initialisation does not achieve satisfactory positioning.
●● The menu items goClose and goOpen should be carried out several times for very small valve strokes in order to ensure an
optimum adaptation of the positioner to the valve.
●● It may be necessary to close the internal positioner throttles a little (D1 for single acting actuators and D1, D2 for double acting
actuators) if the actuator volume is very low in order to increase the valve operating time.
●● In order to prevent incorrect operation, the parameters from manual initialisation are only accepted when they comply with the
requirements for correct function.

Kp = 0.1...100.0
The height of the amplification should always correspond to the requirements of the valve and the control circuit. The optimum set-
ting is determined during automatic initialization but must be moved out of adjustment later if necessary.
The behaviour of the positioner is influenced as follows:

The mechanical regulating distance (from limit stop to limit stop) is limited to the set values with the parameters MIN

The parameter setting CLOSETIGHT is higher ranking!

CloseTight:

With this function the valve can be moved into the seat using the maximum possible actuating force (spring force). The close tight
function can be activated for one end or both end positions. CLOSE TIGHT becomes effective when the set value falls below

11.3.2 Setting the dead zone

DeadBand:
Positioner's dead band
The dead band shows the maximum permissible system deviation between actual value and set value.
During initialisation, on DeadBand = Auto the dead band is matched to the requirements of the control circuit. In the other discrete
settings the fixed value for the dead band is used.
The height of the system deviation should always correspond to the requirements of the valve and the control circuit.
It is recommended that you do not set a value of < 1.0% since this could (especially for actuators with discontinuous
movement profiles) cause oscillating control characteristics. This could put a great deal of stress on the internal pilot
valves and cause them to reach the end of their service life more quickly.
Basically: the smaller the fixed value, the higher the wear and the shorter the service life. Therefore, the value should
be set only as accurate as needed.

When the set time has been exceeded the error message output ERR is set at 24 V DC.

Error Level:
Trigger threshold of error message
Here a value (%) can be set for the permissible size of system deviation for triggering the error message.
If parameters ERROR TIME and ERROR LEVEL are both set to "Auto" the error message is set if the slow-travel zone has not
been reached within a set time. This time is 10 times the initialisation travel time.

Set value direction
Setting the set value direction serves to reverse the direction of the set value.It is mainly required for split-range operation and for
single acting actuators with the fail safe "OPEN" setting (control function 2).

Setp Ramp:
Set value ramp
The set value ramp is effective during automatic operation and limits the speed of change of the effective set value. When
switching over from manual to automatic operation the effective set value is matched to the set value on the unit via the set value
ramp.
In the position SETP RAMP = auto the slower of the two travel times which have been established during initialisation is used for
the set value ramp.

Split Start:
Set value split range start

Split End:
Set value split range end
The parameters SPLIT START and SPLIT END in conjunction with the parameter SETP DIRECTN serve to limit the effective set
value range. In this way split range tasks with the curves
rising / falling
falling / rising
falling / falling
rising / rising
are resolved.

Important:
The difference between the SPLIT START and SPLIT END values must be > 10 %.

Setp Functn:
Set value function
With this function non-linear valve characteristics can be linearised and with linear valve characteristics any flow characteristics
can be reproduced.

Four valve characteristics are stored in the unit:

equal-percentage 1 : 25 (in CLOSED position valve remains 4 % open)
equal-percentage 1 : 50 (in CLOSED position valve remains 2 % open)
linear
free

When free is selected a characteristic with 11 calibration points can be entered.

30: FREE 0 %
.
.
.
40: FREE 100 %

At gaps of 10 % a flow characteristic value can be allocated to the set value calibration point concerned. These points make a
traverse with 10 straight lines, which then provides a pattern of the valve characteristic.

Entering the set value calibration points is only possible at SETP FUNCTN = free.
