4.6 Initial operation
To enable the valve for pressure control setup steps 1 to 6 must be performed.
In case position control is required only it’s sufficient to perform steps 1 to 3.
Turn on external + 24VDC power supply of valve (and external 15
VDC for sensor power supply if required).
Refer to chapter «Behavior during power up» for details.
Refer to chapter «Interface configuration» for details.
Basic configurations of valve must be adapted according to
application needs. Refer to chapter «Valve configuration» for details.
Basic configurations of sensor(s) must be adapted according to
application needs. Refer to chapter «Sensor configuration» for
details.
Compensation of the sensor offset voltage.
Refer to chapter «ZERO» for details.
Determination of the vacuum system characteristic to accommodate
the PID controller. Refer to chapter «LEARN» for details.
Without LEARN the valve is not able to run pressure control.
4.6.1 Interface configuration
Interface configuration must be adapted according to application needs.
Default configuration:
Functionality of digital inputs CLOSE VALVE and OPEN VALVE must be selected.
These may be configured as ‘not inverted‘ or ‘inverted‘. Default is ‘not inverted‘.
LEARN range configuration for remote operation must be selected.
This may either be ‘full range’ or pressure limit according of analog SETPOINT input. Default is ‘full
range‘.
Local operation:
(‘Control View’, ‘Control Performance Analyzer’
or ‘Service Box 2‘)
Do configuration in menu ‘Setup / Interface’.
It’s not possible to do ‘Interface configuration‘ via
remote operation.
