76 No emergency mode The travel measuring system of the positioner has a self-monitoring
function(seeCode62).
An emergency mode (open-loop control) is not available for certain
actuators, such as double-acting actuators. In case of a travel sensing
error, the positioner vents the output (Output 38) or A1 in double-acting
actuators. During the initialization, the positioner automatically checks
whether the actuator has such a function or not.
