26.2.5. SPLTRNG – Signal split range
Min. and max. values of the input signal as % for which the valve runs through the entire stroke range.
Factory setting: Min = 0 %; Max = 100 %
Type 8793: The SPLTRNG auxiliary function can only be selected when operating as a positioner.
P.CONTROL = not activated.
Use this auxiliary function to limit the position set-point value range of the Type 8792/8793 by specifying a minimum
and a maximum value.
As a result, it is possible to divide a utilised standard signal range (4 – 20 mA; 0 – 20 mA; 0 – 10 V or 0 – 5 V) into
several devices (without or with overlapping).
This allows several valves to be used alternately or in the case of overlapping set-point value ranges simultane-
ously as actuating element.
