10.1 Analysis and monitoring
A reference zero point must be recorded to
analyze the course of the end position. This
is recorded during the valve signature refer-
ence test (see u Section 4.1). In case a refer-
ence test has not been performed, the rst
zero point that the valve moved to serves as
the reference value. The reference value is
represented by a straight line in the course
of end position graph.
Note:
If the reference value has been reset
by selecting and executing "Reset
'Reference values for course of lower
end position" (see u Section 2.1.1 ),
the rst zero point that the valve
moves to after the reset serves as the
new reference value, provided it does
not exceed the 'Zero limit' (Code 48 -
d5).
If the analysis of course of the end position
pinpoints to a fault, the positioner generates
the 'Course of end position' message with
the selected status classication.

10.2 Resetting single status mes-
sages
The 'Course of end position' message and
the measured data for the course of the end
position can be reset by selecting and exe-
cuting "Reset 'Course of lower end position".
If only the reference zero point is to be reset,
select and execute "Reset 'Reference values
for course of lower end position".

position'
