1. If the instrument is shipped mounted on an actuator, this value depends upon the actuator on which the instrument is mounted.
WARNING
During calibration the valve will move full stroke. Changes to the tuning set may also cause the valve / actuator assembly to
stroke. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by moving parts, keep hands, tools, and other objects away
from the valve/actuator assembly.
Note
If optional limits switches are being used, power must be applied to the switch circuits throughout the quick setup routine. Failure
to power the switches may result in incorrect switch orientation.
Refer to the DETAILED SETUP procedure for further explanation of the parameters.
To access the QUICK SETUP routine from the home screen, press the DOWN (B) arrow key and then the RIGHT (")
arrow key. A warning will advise you that this procedure will cause the valve to move. Another RIGHT (") button press
will begin the calibration process. Pressing the LEFT (A) arrow key will bring you back to the main menu.
This procedure will automatically calibrate the instrument and apply tuning parameters specifically fit for the size of
the actuator.
To abort the procedure at any time, press the RIGHT (") and LEFT (A) arrow keys together for 3 seconds.
When the procedure is complete, press the RIGHT (") arrow key to return to the status screen. If the RIGHT (")
button is not pressed within 30 seconds, the device will automatically revert back to the status screen.
