  • Page 29: Chapter 3. Operation

    Chapter 3. Operation 3-1. Auto-setup Auto-setup is a unique program for automatically making various positioner adjustments. After installing your SVX, auto-setup should be performed. The built-in zero and span adjustment switches on the SVX provides non-interactive closed and open valve position setting.
  • Page 30 The following valve actuator characteristics are automatically detected during autosetup: „ Zero and span adjustment (However, as a default, the span point is taken to be 0% of the overstroke. If a span adjustment is performed after auto-setup completes, change the overstroke value and save the changed value.) „...

    3-2. Zero and span adjustment The SVX provides an zero and span adjustment function. This method is also useful when the communicator is not available. There are three ways to perform zero and span adjustment. „ Using the switch „ Using communicator by input signal „...
  • Page 33 Zero and span adjustment using the switch Zero and span adjustments can be made pressing the “UP” or “DOWN” button switch. Once adjustments have been completed, press the button switch a second time to record the new position. Since the zero and span adjustments do not interfere with each other, they can be adjusted independently.

    4-6. Maintenance 4-6-1. Mode The HART® version has two modes. One is “In service” and the other is “Out of service. ” When performing calibration or adjustment, or when changing settings, the control valve will move, so first verify that these operations will not result in problems that could adversely affect plant operation.
  • Page 55: Dummy Input Signal

    4-6-3. Dummy input signal Sets the input signal via communication, regardless of the value of the input signal from the controller. This function can be effective when, for instance, isolating problems during troubleshooting. For example, if the control valve does not move in response to input signals from the controller, but the valve operates correctly in response to the simulated current input, it follows that the problem is somewhere between the wiring and the host system.
