3. Apply supply pressure.
4. Apply an input signal equal to the low value of the input signal range; for example, if the input signal range is 0.2 to
1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig), apply 0.2 bar (3 psig.)
5. Rotate the zero adjustment screw (key 143, figure 13) until the actuator is at the starting point position (fully up or
down depending on the action selected) corresponding to the low input signal. Clockwise rotation of the zero
adjustment screw retracts the actuator stem.
6. Slowly increase the input signal toward the high end of the input signal range and observe the actuator stroke. If the
actuator stroke is short of its expected range, increase the travel by rotating the fine span adjustment screw (key
128, figure 13) counterclockwise with a screwdriver. If the actuator reaches the end of its desired travel with an
input signal less than the high value of the input signal range, decrease the travel by rotating the fine span
adjustment screw clockwise with a screwdriver.
7. Repeat steps 4, 5, and 6 until the actuator stroke corresponds to the input signal range.
8. Replace the cover on the positioner.

Changing Positioner Action

This section explains how to change the positioner action from direct to reverse or reverse to direct. With direct
action, the actuator stem extends as the input signal to the positioner increases. With reverse action, the actuator
stem retracts as the input signal to the positioner increases.
