D Date—Enter a date with the format MM/DD/YY. Date is a user-defined variable that provides a place to save the date
of the last revision of configuration or calibration information.
D Valve Serial Num—Enter the serial number for the valve in the application with up to 12 characters.
D Inst Serial Num—Enter the serial number on the instrument nameplate, up to 12 characters.
D Polling Address—If the digital valve controller is used in point-to-point operation, the Polling Address is 0. When
several devices are connected in the same loop, such as for split ranging, each device must be assigned a unique
polling address. The Polling Address is set to a value between 0 and 15. To change the polling address the
instrument must be Out Of Service.
For the Field Communicator to be able to communicate with a device whose polling address is not 0, it must be
configured to automatically search for all or specific connected devices.
D LUI Language—Select the language to be displayed on the local user interface; English, French, German, Italian,
Spanish, Chinese and Japanese.
Measured Variable Units and Ranges
Field Communicator Setup & Diag > Detailed Setup > Measured Var (1-2-4)
Follow the prompts on the Field Communicator to define the following measured variables units and ranges:
D Analog In Units—Permits defining the Analog Input Units in mA or percent of 4-20 mA range.
D Input Range Hi—Permits setting the Input Range High value. Input Range High should correspond to Travel Range
High, if the Zero Control Signal is configured as closed. If the Zero Control Signal is configured as open, Input Range
High corresponds to Travel Range Low. See figure 4‐1.
D Input Range Lo—Permits setting the Input Range Low value. Input Range Low should correspond to Travel Range
Low, if the Zero Control Signal is configured as closed. If the Zero Control Signal is configured as open, Input Range
Low corresponds to Travel Range High. See figure 4‐1.
D Pressure Units—Defines the output and supply pressure units in either psi, bar, or kPa.
D LUI Pressure Units—Enter the pressure units displayed on the local user interface; psi, bar, or kPa.
D Temp Units—Degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. The temperature measured is from a sensor mounted on the digital
valve controller's printed wiring board.
