soft-sealed plugs.
Status classification [Maintenance required]
Recommended action Check valve and mounting of the positioner. If OK, perform a
zero calibration over Code 6 (see section 7.6 on page 58).
If the lever position on the back of the positioner has been
changed (e.g. while exchanging the lever), move the lever as far
as it will go in both directions to adapt it to the internal mea-
suring lever.
We recommend re-initializing the postioner if the zero point de

viates by more than 5 %.

Autocorrection Should an error occur in the data range of the positioner, the
self-monitoring function recognizes it and automatically corrects
it.
Status classification [No message]
Recommended action Automatic

Fatal error An error was detected in the data relevant for safety,
autocorrection is not possible. This may be due to EMC
disturbances.
The positioner changes to the fail-safe position (SAFE).
Status classification Maintenance alarm (cannot be classified)
Recommended action Reset over Code 36.
Re-initialize the positioner (see sections 7.7 and 7.5).
