installation
The actuator pushes/pulls 2
times (unexpected stall) trying
to remove the possible obstacle.
After 2 tries an alarm is signalled
and the actuator moves to initial
position and does not respond to
control signal. Stroke value is not
updated because out of range
The actuator pushes/pulls 2
times against endpoint during
calibration and the actuator
moves to the initial position and
then it does not respond to the
control signal. The actuator keeps

installation
The actuator exits the 60mm
stroke range and it moves toward
the new stroke limit signalling an
anomaly. The actuator pushes/
pulls 2 times against the new
stroke limit, then it goes back to
the initial position still signalling
the anomaly until it is not within
60mm. The actuator does not
calibrate the stroke after 10s

after 10s the actuator updates
the new stroke length
The actuator tries 5 times against
the new stall condition. At the end
of the attempts the fault will be
signalled. The actuator does not
update the new stroke length, but
after 60s makes other attempts to
verify the stall condition
