Calibration

Red LED blinks after a Quick-Cal oper-
ation. Valve stays in fully open or
closed position.

1. Positioner configured for Linear

operation, but mounted on a
rotary actuator

1. Feedback linkage out of range

1. See Quick-Cal Function on

page 44-33.

1. See Stem Position Sensor on

page 44-12.

Yellow LED blinks after a Quick-Cal
operation

1. Valve did not fully stroke during

calibration (low or no air supply)

1. See Quick-Cal Function on

page 44-33. or 44-16.

Rotary valve has a dead band at the
fully open or closed position

1. Mechanical travel is not cen-

tered within the electrical mea-
surement range.

1. See Linear vs. Rotary on

page 44-32. or Stem Position
Sensor on page 44-12.

Red LED after loop current calibration

1. Applied Current is greater than

21 mA

1. Current source changed

between two values

1. See Command 100% Calibra-

tion Flag on page 44-33.

Control and Tuning

Valve will not saturate at closed posi-
tion
