ValveSight DTM software enables communication between
the software and field device networks using the HART
or FF protocol and provides access to the 24/7 diagnostic
information from field devices. Using FDT/DTM technology
maintenance personnel can access any Logix 3000MD
series positioner on the network from a single workstation.
Additionally, the software has capability to store configuration
and calibration history and view event logs for each digital
positioner accessible through the network.
Di a g n o s T i c En g i n E
Users can now obtain a new level of detailed real time diag-
nostic information with ValveSight DTM software. ValveSight
features an “Expert Inside’ performing real time on-line
diagnostics 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The diagnostic
assessment of the ‘expert inside’ is instantly displayed on
the local interface and through the ValveSight DTM software.
The ‘health bars’ in the Dashboard view instantly indicate any
developing issues and quickly direct the user to the implica-
tions and solutions for each problem. The system automati-
cally prioritizes alarms to direct the user to the root cause.
co n f i g u r a T i o n Ma n a g E M E n T
ValveSight DTM software also allows the user to easily upload
a configuration from the positioner. This means that a new
replacement positioner can be identically configured with the
simple click of a mouse once the correct configuration has
been identified. ValveSight enables users to edit individual
configurations and print a positioner configuration report.
21-Po i n T ch a r a c T E r i z a T i o n cu r v E
With ValveSight DTM software, the user can adjust a 21-point
characterization curve to change the response of the posi-
tioner in order to meet the process requirements. The output
of each control point is independent, allowing the user to
create a custom curve with very high resolution. This custom-
ized curve can be saved in the memory of the Logix 3000MD
positioners, and either activated or overridden with a simple
on-board selector switch.
si g n a T u r E s
The Logix 3000MD positioners are designed to assure that
data is easily gathered, stored and compared to historical
valve data so the user can determine the performance of
critical valves.
With ValveSight DTM software a user-defined signature ramp
or step response test can be generated with a Logix 3000MD
positioner. Signatures can be saved and cataloged (and later
retrieved) for comparison with a more recent signature.
A special partial stroke signature function wil automatically
test the valve/actuator and give a pass/fail indication.
Po s i T i o n E r PE r f o r M a n c E
Static performance and accuracy measures such as hysteresis,
deadband, linearity, and repeatability can be obtained with the
Logix 3000MD positioners. These values can be graphically
depicted, stored and later retrieved for comparative analysis.
