6.1 Local indication lights

These indication lights are used to display certain actuator states. Depending on configu-
ration, both outer indication lights are used for signalling directional running indications or
reaching an end position. The mid indication light is reserved as failure signal. The nature
of the indicated failure can be set via actuator controls parameterisation. Please refer to
the firmware description for exact procedure and available options.

6.2 Operation

After booting of actuator controls, the basic screen is displayed with the most important
details like position, torque, type of duty and if available fieldbus status as well as any im-
minent failures or warnings. Data structure can differ depending on firmware and hardware.

Local control is performed via four operating elements, either as mechanically operable
spring-loaded push buttons (6.1 a) or as hidden magnetic keys (6.1 b). For operation,
magnetic keys require a special magnetic pin available as separate accessory.
Standard functional assignment of push buttons/keys is indicated on the provided face
plate of local controls. Furthermore, the lower display status indication shows the current
function assignment which might vary depending on sub-menu operation.
If LOCAL or LEARN are displayed, actuator operation can be performed using the ar-
row push buttons (1 and 3 refer to figure 6.1). This is not possible if the display indicates
OFF or REMOTE.
If the lock symbol is displayed (refer to figure 6.3), local operation is disabled and the
actuator can only be operated from REMOTE. In this instance, an enable command must
be issued to activate use of local controls. If local controls are not disabled, select the menu
for operation mode LOCAL by means of the ENTER push button/key (4 in figure 6.1).
