1. Refer to table 5-13 for parameter descriptions.
2. See pages 5-32 and 5-34, Tvl and Prox, for information on accessing these alerts. Refer to Appendix C for information on accessing these alerts through DeltaV.
Valve Travel
Channel 23 provides valve travel.
0 = Closed, 1 = 100% open, 5 = 5% open, 10 = 10%
open, 15 = 15% open, etc.
Open/Closed Limit Switch
Channels 24 and 25 provide valve open and closed
limit switch functionality for the DI block. These
channels will detect if the valve position is more than
the Travel Open Alert Point for open detection or less
than the Travel Closed Alert Point for closed detection.
These channels provide an adjustable deadband to
clear the detected position.
0= Not Active, 1= Active
Variable Limit Switch
Channels 26 through 29 provide variable limit switch
functionality for the DI block. Trip points for this limit
switch functionality are based on the Travel Alert
settings in the transducer Block. The DI function block
provides the same type of position detection as the
travel alerts in the transducer block. Table 5-77 lists
the transducer block parameters used with DI block
channels 26 through 29. Refer to Tvl and Prox, on
page 5-32 for more information on the transducer
block travel alerts.
0= Not Active, 1= Active
