D Advise Suppress—Advise Suppress (ADVISE_MASK [67]) determines which of the advise alert conditions are
suppressed so that they are not reported. Even if reporting is suppressed, the bit in Advise Active (ADVISE_ACTIVE
[61]) is still set.

D Tag Description—The Tag Description (TAG_DESC [2]) is a 32 character description used to assign a unique
description to each block within the digital valve controller to describe the intended application for the block.
D Pressure Units—Define the output and supply pressure units (PRESSURE_UNITS [90]) in either psi, bar, or kPa.
D Temperature Units—Enter the temperature units (TEMPERATURE_UNITS [89]) in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. The
temperature is measured from a sensor mounted on the digital valve controller's printed wiring board.
D Travel Units—Define the units for valve travel (TVL_UNITS [91]) in inches, centimeters, millimeters or degrees.
D Length Units—Define the units for valve dimensions (LENGTH_UNITS [92]) in inches, centimeters, or millimeters.
D Area Units—Define the units for actuator area (AREA_UNITS [93]) in inches
D Spring Rate Units—Define the units for actuator spring rate (SPRING_RATE_UNITS [94]) in lbs/in
D Relay Type—Enter the Relay Type (RELAY_TYPE [42.5]).There are three categories of relays that result in
combinations from which to select.
Relay Type: The relay type is printed on the label affixed to the relay body:
A = double‐acting or single acting
B = single‐acting, reverse
C= single‐acting, direct
Special App: This is used in single‐acting applications where the "unused" output port is configured to read the
pressure downstream of a solenoid valve. See page 29 for additional information.
Lo Bleed: The label affixed to the relay body indicates it is a low bleed version.
D Zero Power Condition—Zero Power Condition (ZERO_PWR_COND [42.2]) identifies whether the valve is open or
closed when instrument power is lost. If you are unsure how to set this parameter, disconnect the segment loop
power to the instrument. The resulting valve travel is the Zero Power Condition.
D Maximum Supply Pressure—Enter the maximum supply pressure (MAX_SUPP_PRESS [42.6]) in psi, bar, or kPa,
depending on what was selected for pressure units.
D Calibration Person—Name of the person performing last calibration (XD_CAL_WHO [31]).
D Calibration Location—Indicates the location of the last instrument calibration (XD_CAL_LOC [29]).
D Calibration Date—Enter a date with the format MM/DD/YY. Date is a user‐defined variable that provides a place to
save the date of the last calibration (XD_CAL_DATE [30]).
D Last Calibration Type—Indicates the type of the last calibration performed on the instrument. Possible values are:
Not Calibrated, Single Point Calibration, Auto Calibration, Manual Calibration.
