Overview of parameters 1 to 5 
Introduction 
Parameters 1 to 5 are the same for all versions of positioner. These parameters are used to 
adjust the positioner to the actuator. Normally the parameter setup is sufficient to be able to 
operate the positioner on an actuator. 
If you want to get to know the positioner in detail, gradually try out the effects of the 
remaining parameters by systematic testing  
 
-set parameter values are printed in bold in the following table.
