1. Step response function, Fig. 2 left
The step response function is activated when
the
Activation of the ramp function
parame

ter is set to "Off".
The valve is moved in steps to the
Step end
position (pos. 3) during the first half of the
test and to the
Step start
position (pos. 2)
during the second half of the test.
2. Ramp function, Fig. 2 right
The ramp function is active when the
Activa

tion of the ramp function
parameter is set to
"On".
Note!
A step before the partial stroke test can be
prevented by allocating the value of the
manual reference variable w to the
Step
start
parameter.
The valve is moved to the
Step end
(pos. 3)
and
Step start
(pos. 2) positions with fixed
velocities (v
1
and v
2
) set by the
Ramp time
(falling)
and
Ramp time (rising)
parameters.
