8.3 Fault/malfunction

A status classification is assigned to all status
and fault alarms in the positioner. The
default settings of the status classification are
listed in the code list.
Note:

The assignment of the status
classification can be changed in
TROVIS-VIEW and over the
FOUNDATION™ fieldbus
parameters. Refer to the Operating
Instructions on the valve diagnostics
u EB 8389 and the Configuration
Manual u KH 8384-5 on the
enclosed CD-ROM for more details.
To provide a better overview, the classified
messages are summarized in a condensed
state for the positioner according to the
NAMUR Recommendation NE 107. The sta-
tus messages are divided into the following
categories:
− Maintenance alarm
The positioner cannot perform its control
task due to a functional fault in the posi-
tioner itself or in one of its peripherals or
EB 8384-5 EN
an initialization has not yet been suc-
cessfully completed.
− Maintenance required
The positioner still performs its control
task (with restrictions). A maintenance
demand or above average wear has
been determined. The wear tolerance will
soon be exhausted or is reducing at a
faster rate than expected. Maintenance is
necessary in the medium term.
− Maintenance demanded
The positioner still performs its control
task (with restrictions). A maintenance
demand or above average wear has
been determined. The wear tolerance will
soon be exhausted or is reducing at a
faster rate than expected. Maintenance is
necessary in the short term.
− Out of specification
The positioner is running outside the
specified operating conditions.
− Function check
Test or calibration procedures are per-
formed in the positioner. The positioner is
temporarily unable to perform its control
task as long as the procedure is taking
place.
Note:

If an event is classified as "No mes-
sage", this event does not have any
affect on the condensed state.
