Once the positioner has been fitted to a pneumatic actuator, it must be
provided with electrical and pneumatic auxiliary power.
The electrical auxiliary power can be provided via a bus interface or
separate power source with 15 to 30 V DC. Then you can then adapt
the positioner to the respective actuator by parameterizing and
initializing it and setting the bus address. Communication with a master
is not necessary for this.
If the positioner has not been initialized it will be in the "P Manual
Mode" operating mode (which can also if necessary be attained by
"PRST") -- "NOINI" will flash.
This initialization can be effected in three different ways:
Automatic initialization
S
Initialization takes place automatically. Hereby the positioner
determines the direction of action, the stem path and the angle of
rotation, the adjusting times of the actuator one after the other and
adapts the control parameters to the dynamic behavior of the
actuator.
Manual initialization
S
The stem travel or angle of rotation of the actuator can be set
manually, the other parameters are determined as in automatic
initialization. This function is useful in actuators with soft limit stops.
Copying initialization data (positioner exchange)
S
The initialization data of a positioner can be read out and copied to
another positioner. This enables a defective device to be changed
without having to interrupt an ongoing process by initialization.
Only a few parameters need to be set in the positioner prior to
initialization. The others are defaulted so that they do not normally
need to be adjusted. You will have no problems with commissioning if
you observe the following points.
The possible operating modes and parameters, together with the
adjustment capabilities and their effects are described in chapter 4
page 91 "Operation".
NOTE
N.B.: The operating pressure should be at least one bar greater than is
necessary for closing/opening the valve during initialization. Jedoch
darf der Betriebsdruck nicht größer sein als der maximal zulässige Be-
triebsdruck des Antriebs.
N.B.: The transmission ratio selector can only be set when the
positioner is open. Therefore check this setting before closing the
housing.
