provides advanced diagnostic, maintenance capabilities and basic
calibration and configuration for the SVI II AP. SVI II AP performs valve
diagnostics and displays stroking speed, step response, cumulative
travel, cycles, and operation in near-closed position. The software
stores test results for comparison with future results for predictive
maintenance. Password protected access to remote instruments is set
up with administration features. The fully licensed ValVue 2.4 software
is available as an upgrade.

This section covers the optional local interface consisting of the LCD
alphanumeric display and pushbuttons. Operation of the SVI II AP
Positioner as a local device is controlled through the optional device-
mounted pushbuttons and digital display, shown in Figure 12 on page
26. 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 monitoring functions that are
described later in this section. ValVue 2.4 is used to perform all
diagnostics functions. The pushbuttons do not support diagnostics
functions.
