used to tightly close or open the valve. It is used when a
tight seal is needed or when debris or friction may
otherwise interfere with complete closure. When the valve
is commanded past the Shutoff points, the pilot relay will
direct full supply pressure to the appropriate port, applying
all available force to close (or open) the valve. The Shutoff
points apply to the Final Command.
CAUTION: Changing the Shutoff limits may cause the
valve to fully open or fully close after the command passes
a set limit.
Though Shutoff and Soft Limit features should not be used
together, if both are set, the greater of the two settings will
take precedence at the closed end; and the lesser of the
two settings will take precedence at the open end.
10.3.9 Configuration (Set Time and Date)
►Configuration
►Set Date & Time
The positioner has an internal clock. The clock allows time
and date information to be stored with alarms and other
events. The clock does not account for daylight savings.
Set Time and Date – Use the ▲Up and ▼Down buttons to
set the time and date. The format of the time and date is
displayed above the input fields.

► Factory Reset
At times, it may be convenient to reset all of the variables
to a default state. In this case, perform a Factory Reset.
Factory Reset – Use this feature to reset all variables to

including calibration will be reset to factory defaults. The
positioner must be re-calibrated after a factory reset. Tag
names and other user configured limits, alarm settings, and
valve information will also be lost and will need to be
restored. A factory reset will always reset the command
source to analog 4-20 mA.
NOTE: Once the Multi-Function Card (MFC) type has
been configured, the type selection will still remain after a
factory reset.
WARNING: Performing a factory reset may result in the
inability to operate the valve until reconfigured properly.
Notify proper personnel that the valve may stroke, and
make sure the valve is properly isolated.
