• "Device not initialized" diagnostic alarm: the diagnostic alarm “Device not initialized” is
generated when the positioner is not initialized and the condensed state is set to “Maintenance
alarm”.
• Leakage sensor at binary input 2: The connection of a leakage sensor at binary input 2 (by
selecting LEAKAGE SENSOR in CONFIG_BINARY_INPUT2 parameter of the AO Transducer
Block) causes:
• Information specied in XD_ERROR_EXT parameter in the AO Transducer Block and the
generation of a diagnostic alarm which is logged
• The state of the binary input is reported in BINARY_INPUT2 parameter in the AO Transducer

• Display of the operating range FINAL_VALUE_RANGE: the correction of the operating range
FINAL_VALUE_RANGE over on-site operation of the positioner (Code 8/9) is also transferred
over eldbus in rmware version K1.21 and higher.
• De-energized internal solenoid valve: a masking allows to set whether a de-energized internal
solenoid valve generates an AO block error, resulting in a block alarm.
• SOLENOID_SELECT parameter: the SOLENOID_SELECT parameter in rmware K1.21 and
higher allows to set whether a "Maintenance now" block error of the AO Transducer Block results
in an output error in the AO Function Block.
• TOT_VALVE_TRAV_LIM parameter: new range: 1000 to 990 000 000
K 1.22
• Operating range FINAL_VALUE_RANGE: the operating range FINAL_VALUE_RANGE of the AO
Transducer Block is compared on entering it with TRANSM_PIN_POS.
If the TRANSM_PIN_POS parameter is changed, the positioner checks whether the setting and
unit match the current operating range FINAL_VALUE_RANGE. If this is not the case, the FINAL_
VALUE_RANGE parameter is set to 0 to 100%.
• VALVE_TYPE parameter: the parameter of the AO Transducer Block is set depending on the
selected PIN_POS. The last setting is kept when VALVE_TYPE is set to OFF.
• FINAL_VALUE parameter: the output value is scaled with FINAL_VALUE_ RANGE in rmware
K1.22 and higher and not as previously with XD_SCALE.
• Display of O/S mode in AO Transducer Block: if the AO Transducer Block is set to O/S mode,
this is indicated in the positioner display by MAN/AUTO.

Design and principle of operation
2 Design and principle of operation
The positioner is mounted on pneumatic control valves and is used to assign the valve posi-
tion (controlled variablex) to the control signal (set pointw). The positioner compares the
control signal of a control system to the travel or rotational angle of the control valve and is-
sues a signal pressure (output variable y) for the pneumatic actuator.
The positioner mainly consists of an electric travel sensor system, an analog i/p converter
with a downstream air capacity booster and the electronics with the microcontroller.
When a set point deviation occurs, the actuator is either vented or lled with air. If neces-
sary, the signal pressure change can be slowed down by a volume restriction. The signal
pressure supplied to the actuator can be limited by software or on site to 1.4, 2.4 or 3.7bar.
The xed ow regulator ensures a constant air ow to the atmosphere, which is used to ush
the inside of the positioner housing and to optimize the air capacity booster. The i/p convert-
er is supplied with a constant upstream pressure by the pressure regulator to compensate for
any uctuations in the supply pressure.

Design and principle of operation
The positioner communicates and is powered using IEC61158-2 transmission technology
conforming to FOUNDATION™ eldbus specication.
As a standard feature, the positioner comes with a binary input used to signalize process in-
formation over the FOUNDATION™ eldbus network.
The extended EXPERTplus diagnostics are integrated into the positioner. They provide infor-
mation on the positioner and generate diagnostic and status messages, which allow faults to
be pinpointed quickly.
2.1 Application type
The application types 'Control valve' and 'On/off valve' are available. The manual mode
(MAN) and the automatic mode (AUTO) can be selected with both application types.
Depending on the application type selected, the positioner responds differently in automatic
mode (AUTO) .
Control over FOUNDATION™ eldbus is performed over the AO Function Block (control
valve) and over the DO1 Function Block (on/off valve). The application type can be entered
in the Resource Block over the SELECT_DO_1 parameter or at the positioner using Code
49-h0.
Control valve Open/close (on/off) valve
AUTO mode The positioner uses the set point to
position the valve. The valve position
(current position) appears in % on the
display.
Discrete analysis of the set point The
valve position (current position) in %
and O/C (Open/Close) appear in
alternating sequence on the display.
MAN mode The positioner follows the set point given over local operation.
−Depending on the application type, certain diagnostic functions cannot be performed or
analyzed (u EB8389 on EXPERTplus valve diagnostics).
−In manual mode, an on/off valve can be moved past 100% of the nominal range (with the
closed position for AIR TO OPEN) or below 0% of the nominal range (with the closed posi-
tion for AIR TO CLOSE).
