NOTE: The position demand and actual position feedback were both used to determine activation/deactivation of Zero Cut-off starting in DVP firmware version 5418-7030/rev 6.02. Currently, only position demand is being used beginning with DVP firmware version 5418-8082/rev 6.11 and later. Woodward...
Excessive gear wear can result when the valve is actively controlling in one fixed position for long durations. Woodward has provided default values that will likely meet most customer needs. It is recommended not to alter these values. If altering them is necessary, be sure that the operator understands the impact of the values entered to avoid unexpected operational characteristics.
The valve will respond with zero delay when the cut-off deactivates. Figure 2-35. Zero Cut-off Timing Chart *Timing chart is not to scale 2.16.3 Discrete Inputs Configuration This section displays the configuration of the discrete inputs. Figure 2-36. Discrete Inputs Configuration Woodward...
