17.2 Error messages and recommended corrective action
Message Possible reasons Recommended action
Status
classication Single reset
Diagnostics > Monitoring > Positioner
Control loop (Code 57) − Actuator is blocked.
− Positioner attachment has shifted
subsequently.
− Insufcient supply pressure
− Check attachment.
− Check supply pressure.
•
[ ]
–
Zero point (Code 58) − Mounting arrangement or link-
age has slipped.
− Valve trim, particularly with soft
seat, is worn.
− Check valve and positioner at-
tachment.
− Calibrate zero.
We recommend to re-initialize the
positioner if zero deviates by more
than 5 %.

[ ]
•
Inconsistent data
memory (Code 59)
The error is detected by automatic monitoring and corrected automatically. – •
Internal device error
(Code 60)
− Electromagnetic interference − Reset initialization.
− Re-initialize positioner.
– •
Kp too low (Code 61) Proportional-action coefcient Kp
level lower than 3 was detected dur-
ing initialization.
− Activate volume restriction in
positioner output.
•
[ ]
•
x signal (Code 62) − Actuator's measured value re-
cording failed.
− Conductive plastic element de-
fective.
− Return positioner to SAMSON
for repair.
– –
w too small (Code 63) − The set point (w) is lower than
3.7mA.
This state is indicated on the posi
-
tioner display by LOW blinking.
− Check set point (w). If neces-
sary, restrict lower limit of cur-
rent source to ensure that a cur-
rent below 3.7mA cannot be
issued.

ful, reset initialization and re-initial-
ize the positioner.

Conrm error. If this is not possible,
return positioner to SAMSON for
repair.
