Specifications - Emerson Fisher FIELDVUE DVC6000 HW2 Instruction Manual

Introduction
June 2017
Using a personal computer and ValveLink software or
AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager, or a Field
Communicator, you can perform several operations with
the DVC6000 HW2 digital valve controller. You can
obtain general information concerning software revision
level, messages, tag, descriptor, and date.
Diagnostic information is available to aid you when
troubleshooting. Input and output configuration
parameters can be set, and the digital valve controller can
be calibrated. Refer to table 1‐1 for details on the
capabilities of each diagnostic tier.
Using the HART protocol, information from the field can
be integrated into control systems or be received on a
single loop basis.
The DVC6000 HW2 digital valve controller is designed to
directly replace standard pneumatic and electro‐
pneumatic valve mounted positioners.
