Scope of Manual
This instruction manual is a supplement to the DVC6200 Series Quick Start Guide (D103556X012) that ships with
every instrument. This instruction manual includes product specifications, reference materials, custom setup
information, calibration and maintenance procedures, and replacement part details for the DVC6200p digital valve
controller.
Note
All references to the DVC6200p digital valve controller include the DVC6205p base unit unless otherwise indicated.
Do not install, operate, or maintain a DVC6200p digital valve controller without being fully trained and qualified in
valve, actuator, and accessory installation, operation, and maintenance. To avoid personal injury or property damage,
it is important to carefully read, understand, and follow all of the contents of this manual, including all safety cautions

Partner before proceeding.
Conventions Used in this Manual
Throughout this document, parameters are typically referred to by their common name or label.
Description
DVC6200p digital valve controllers are communicating, microprocessor‐based instruments. In addition to the
traditional function of converting a digital signal to a pneumatic output pressure, the DVC6200p digital valve
controller, using PROFIBUS PA communications protocol, gives easy access to information critical to process operation
as well as process control. It includes AO, AI, DO, and two DI function blocks in addition to the physical and transducer
blocks.
Using a compatible profibus configuration device, you can obtain information about the health of the instrument. You
can also obtain asset information about the actuator or valve manufacturer, model, and serial number. You can set
input and output configuration parameters and calibrate the instrument.
Using the PROFIBUS protocol, information from the instrument can be integrated into control systems.
The DVC6200p can be mounted on single or double‐acting sliding‐stem actuators, as shown in figure 1‐1, or on rotary
actuators. It can also be integrally mounted to the Fisher GX control valve and actuator system, as shown in figure 1‐2.
The DVC6200p mounts on most Fisher and other manufacturers' rotary and sliding‐stem actuators.

Instrument Blocks
The digital valve controller is a block‐based device. For detailed information on the blocks within the digital valve
controller, see the Detailed Setup section of this manual.
The DVC6200p digital valve controller includes the physical and transducer block:
D Physical Block—The physical block contains the hardware specific characteristics associated with a device; it has no
input or output parameters. The physical block monitors and controls the general operation of other blocks within
the device. For example, when the mode of the physical block is Out of Service, it impacts all function blocks.
D Transducer Block—The transducer block connects the analog output function block to the I/P converter, relay, and
travel sensor hardware within the digital valve controller.

Function Blocks
In addition to the physical and transducer block, the digital valve controller contains the following function blocks.
D Analog Output (AO) Function Block—The analog output function block accepts the output from another function
block (such as a PID block) and transfers it as an actuator control signal to the transducer block. If the DO block is
selected, the AO block is not functional.
D Discrete Output (DO) Function Block—The discrete output function block processes a discrete set point and sends it
to a specified output channel, which can be transferred to the transducer block for actuator control. In the digital
valve controller, the discrete output block provides both normally open or closed control and the ability to position
the valve in 5% increments for coarse throttling applications. If the AO block is selected, the DO block is not
functional.
D Analog Input (AI) Function Block—The analog input function block monitors the signal from a DVC6200p sensor or
internal measurement and provides it to another block.
D Discrete Input (DI) Function Block—The discrete input function block processes a single discrete input from a
DVC6200p and makes it available to other function blocks. In the digital valve controller, the discrete input function
block can provide limit switch functionality and valve position proximity detection.
D Alarm Transducer Block—The Alarm Transducer Block manages the device alarms. Active alarms are monitored and
displayed as active. Working with the Logbook Block those alarms active and configured are time/date stamped and
written to the Logbook block.
D Logbook Function Block—The Logbook Function Block will store any alarm that is active and configured to record an
occurrence of the alarm to the logbook. Logbook entries are written from active alarms in the Alarm Transducer
Block. Each Logbook entry is time/date stamped. A maximum of 260 log entries are allowed.

Note
The DVC6200p may keep the Transducer Block Mode Out‐of‐Service if the instrument is not properly mounted.
To setup and calibrate the instrument, the Transducer Block Mode must be AUTO and the output block (AO or DO) must be OOS.
Protection must be None.
When performing procedures where you are prompted to change the mode, changes to Protection will be made automatically. If
you have a host system that overrides transducer block parameters ensure that the Protection setting is not left as None. Doing so
will result in transducer block parameters being overwritten. Refer to page 26 for additional information on setting Protection.
Response Control
Travel/Pressure Control
D Travel/Pressure State indicates if the instrument is being used for travel control (position control) or as an I/P
(pressure control).
D Travel/Pressure Select
CAUTION
When using Pressure Fallback Manual Recovery or Pressure Fallback Auto Recovery, the valve travel has the potential of
moving rapidly, causing potential process instability when returning to Travel Control.
Note
Travel / Pressure Select must be set to Travel for double acting actuators.
Travel / Pressure Select determines if the instrument is setup for travel position or pressure control. Select Travel,
Pressure, Travel with Pressure Fallback/Auto recovery or Travel with Pressure Fallback/Manual Recovery. If the travel
sensor fails, and Travel with Pressure Fallback/Auto Recovery is selected, it will return to travel control when the travel
sensor starts working again. Travel with Pressure Fallback/Manual recovery will stay in pressure control until Travel
Pressure Select is changed to Travel or Travel with Pressure Fallback/Auto recovery. It is not necessary to enable the
Travel Sensor Alert for Pressure Fallback to occur.
D Travel Cutoff Hi defines the high cutoff point for the travel in percent (%) of pre‐characterized setpoint. Above this
cutoff, the travel target is set to 123.0% of the ranged travel. Travel Cutoff Hi is deactivated by setting it to 125.0%.
D Travel Cutoff Lo defines the low cutoff point for the travel in percent (%) of pre‐characterized setpoint. Below this
cutoff, the travel target is set to -23%. A Travel Cutoff Lo of 0.5% is recommended to help ensure maximum shutoff
seat loading. Travel Cutoff Lo is deactivated by setting it to -25.0%
D Pressure Tune Cutoff Hi defines the high cutoff point for the pressure in percent (%) of pre‐characterized setpoint.
Above this cutoff, the pressure target is set to 123.0%. A Pressure Cutoff Open of 99.5% is recommended to ensure
valve goes fully open. Pressure Tune Cutoff Hi is deactivated by setting it 125%.

Below this cutoff, the pressure target is set to -23%. A Pressure Tune Cutoff Lo of 0.5% is recommended to help
ensure maximum shutoff seat loading. Pressure Tune Cutoff Lo is deactivated by setting it to -25.0%.
D Pressure Range Hi is the high end of output pressure range. Enter the pressure that corresponds with 100% valve
travel when Zero Power Condition is closed, or 0% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is open. This pressure
must be greater than the Pressure Range Lo.
D Pressure Range Lo is the low end of the output pressure range. Enter the pressure that corresponds to 0% valve
travel when Zero Power Condition is closed, or 100% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is open. This pressure
must be less than the Pressure Range Hi.
Output Synchronize
Output Sync allows a bumpless transition from travel control mode to pressure control mode in the event of control
feedback switch.
D Bleed Rate is the time, in %/sec, for the transition to the user-specified setpoint. Select Enable or Disable.
Travel Deviation Fallback
D Travel Deviation Fallback occurs when a gross deviation exists between set point and actual travel. It switches to
Pressure Control and no longer uses the travel sensor to position the valve Select Enabled or Disabled.
D Fallback Point is the point, in percent (%) of travel, at which the instrument switches to Pressure Control.
D Fallback Time is the time, in seconds, that is required to reach the Travel Deviation Fallback Point.
D Deadband defines the Travel Deviation Fallback Deadband in percent (%).
D Minimum Supply is the minimum air supply, in psi or percent (%), required for the pressure control mode to activate
during Travel Deviation Fallback
Travel Tuning Set
WARNING
Changes to the tuning set may cause the valve/actuator assembly to stroke. To avoid personal injury or property damage
caused by moving parts, keep hands, tools, and other objects away from the valve/actuator assembly.
There are eleven Travel Tuning Sets to choose from. Each tuning set provides a preselected value for the digital valve
controller gain settings.
Tuning set C provides the slowest response and M provides the fastest response. Table 3‐2 lists the proportional gain,
velocity gain and minor loop feedback gain values for preselected tuning sets.
In addition, you can specify Expert tuning and individually set the proportional gain, velocity gain, and minor loop
feedback gain. Individually setting or changing any tuning parameter or running the Performance Tuner will
automatically change the tuning set to X (expert).

Note
Use Expert tuning if standard tuning has not achieved the desired results.
Table 3‐3 provides tuning set selection guidelines for Fisher and Baumann™ actuators. These tuning sets are
recommended starting points. After you finish setting up and calibrating the instrument, you may have to select either
a higher or lower tuning set to get the desired response.
For an actuator not listed in table 3‐3, you can estimate a starting tuning set by calculating the casing or cylinder
volume. Then, find an actuator in table 3‐3 with the closest equivalent volume and use the tuning set suggested for
that actuator.
