WARNING!
During the initialization, the control
valve moves through its entire tra
-
vel/angle of rotation range. Therefo
-
re, do not start initialization while a
process is running, but only during
start-up, when all shut-off valves are
closed.
Note: The initialization procedure
can be interrupted while running by
pressing . StOP appears three se-
conds long and the positioner then
moves to the fail-safe position.
The fail-safe position can be cance-
led again over Code 0.

After a successful initialization, the

icon.
The control position in % predetermined by
the reference variable appears on the dis

A malfunctioning leads to the process being
interrupted. The initialization error appears
on the display according to how it has been
classified by the condensed status. See sec

tion 5.7 on page 70.
If the slide switch is set to AIR TO CLOSE,
the positioner automatically switches to the
direction of action increasing/decreasing
(äæ) on successful completion of initializa-
tion. This results in the following assignment
between reference variable and valve posi-
tion:
Valve closed

Direction of
action

The tight-closing function is activated.
Set Code 15 (final position w>) to 99 % for
three-way valves.
Further settings relevant for the valve can be
entered subsequently.
