9.4.3.5 Description of parameter E
E. DEBA - deadband monitoring
Use this parameter to activate the "deadband monitoring" test. This test can be used to
monitor the automatic adjustment of deadbands continuously.
Configure the following settings to activate the test:
1. Ensure that the "34.DEBA" parameter is set to "Auto".
2. Set the "E. DEBA" parameter to "On". The sub-menu to set the threshold value is
3. Change the parameter in the sub-menu if required. The setting option is described below.
The positioner triggers a fault message if the current deadband exceeds the configured limit
threshold during the test.
The factory setting is "OFF".
E1.LEVL3 - threshold for monitoring the deadband adjustment
Use this sub-parameter to set the factor limit threshold to monitor the deadband adjustment.
Set the threshold in a range from "0.1" to "10.0".
The threshold 3 fault message is displayed when the current deadband exceeds the
threshold limit during the test. The procedure to activate and display this error message is
described in the "XDIAG" parameter.
Note
Fault message display
A three-stage fault message display has not been implemented for deadband monitoring.
The positioner triggers only threshold 3 fault messages depending on the setting.
The factory setting is "2.0".
