Pushbuttons and Local Display
This section covers the optional local interface consisting of the LCD alphanumeric display and
pushbuttons. Operation of the SVI II AP Digital Valve Positioner as a local device is controlled
through the optional device-mounted pushbuttons and digital display, shown in Figure 7 on
page 18. Using the display you can read the input signal, valve position, and actuator pressure.
The display sequences from one variable to the next every 1.5 seconds.
Using the pushbuttons you can exit from operating mode at any time and step through a menu
structure to perform a wide range of manual operation, calibration, configuration, and monitor-
ing functions that are described later in this section. ValVue is used to perform all diagnostics
functions. The pushbuttons do not support diagnostics functions.
The SVI II AP has two operational modes: Normal Operating mode and Manual mode and two set-
up modes, Configuration and Calibration. The SVI II AP also has two modes for handling of faults
and power-up: Reset and Failsafe. When commissioning or checking a control valve with SVI II AP
fully installed the following steps are recommended:
Change mode to Manual mode
Examine and adjust all CONFIGuration items
Enter Calibration mode
Run STOPS to automatically calibrate stroke
Run autoTUNE to set dynamic response
Examine the device STATUS
Introduce manual set point changes to verify dynamic performance
Pushbuttons
The local pushbuttons are located behind a hinged cover, directly below the display window. To
open the cover loosen the screw and swing the cover down. Always re-fasten the cover after use
to protect the pushbuttons from environmental contamination.
The three pushbuttons perform the following functions:
Left Button - Marked with *,permits you to select or accept the value or
parameter option currently displayed.
Middle Button - Marked –,permits you to move back through the menu
structure to the previous item in the menu or decrement the value currently
shown in the digital display. When used to decrease a displayed value,
holding the button down causes the value to decrease at a faster rate.
Right Button - Marked +, permits you to move forward through the menu
structure to the next item in the menu, or to increment the value currently
shown in the digital display. When used to increase a displayed value
holding this button down causes the value to increase at a faster rate.

Pushbutton Locks and Configuration-Lock Jumper
Before performing any of these functions with the local display you must first ensure that the
pushbuttons are placed in the unlocked mode using ValVue. The positioner is provided in the un-
locked mode. See ValVue documentation for more details.
The SVI II AP offers several levels of accessibility. It may be desirable, after initial setup, to lock the
pushbuttons so that the SVI II AP parameters cannot be inadvertently changed by the buttons.
Several levels of pushbutton locks are provided.
Table 2: Pushbutton Lock Security Level
Level Access
Security Level 3 Allow Local Buttons: Buttons on the SVI II AP are fully enabled.
Security Level 2 Lock Out Local Calibration and Configuration: Use the buttons to per-
form operations in normal operating mode and manual mode. Do not
go to configure or calibrate mode.
Security Level 1 Lock Out Local Manual: Examine variables in normal operating mode
but do not put the valve in manual operating mode. Access to cali-
brate or configure modes is not available.
Security Level 0 Lock Out All Buttons: The buttons are disabled (level 0).

Hardware Configuration Lock
Additional security is achieved using the hardware configuration-lock jumper shown in Figure 8.
When set to the secure position, shorting the two-pin header, configuration and calibration are
not permitted by the local interface or by remote communications. Pushbuttons, ValVue and
handheld are locked out, except to examine configuration, calibration, and position. This is sim-
ilar to Security Level 1 shown in the Pushbutton Lock Security Level table.

NOTE The PV (Process Variable is not used for the SVI II AP. The Digital
Input (DI) is activated using SMARTs Assistant, which is
downloaded at https://www.geoilandgas.com/file-download-
search.
The DI switch is a dry contact switch. As an example, the switch
may be utilized as a mechanical limit switch backup. The most
common way to read the switch status is via the DTM or DD. The
input to the switch can be automated by sending Device Variable
8 (DI) via CMD 9 or CMD 33 from a DCS.
