7.4 Allocating the closed
position
Taking into account the type of valve and the
operating direction of the actuator, allocate
the closed position (0 % travel):
4
AIR TO OPEN (AtO)
Signal pressure opens the valve.
Fail-close
4
AIR TO CLOSE (AtC)
Signal pressure closes the valve.
Fail-open
NOTICE
Double-acting actuators must always be set
to AIR TO OPEN (AtO).

tion 7.5.
For checking purposes: After the positioner
has been initialized successfully, the valve
closed position is indicated on the positioner
display as 0 %, whereas the valve open
position is indicated by 100 %. If this is not
the case, the closing direction has to be
adapted correspondingly and the positioner
needs to be re-initialized.
7.5 Positioner initialization
WARNING!
During initialization, the control valve moves
through its entire travel/angle of rotation
range. Therefore, do not start the initializa
-
tion procedure while a process is running,
but only during start-up when all shut-off
valves are closed.
Before starting initialization, check the maxi
-
mum permissible signal pressure of the con
-
trol valve. During initialization, the
positioner issues an output signal pressure
up to the maximum supply pressure sup
-
plied. If necessary, limit the signal pressure
by connecting an upstream pressure reduc
-
ing valve.
