function preferably
without
operating medium pressure to exclude interference due to flow
forces.
The following functions are actuated automatically:
• Adjustment of the sensor signal to the (physical) stroke of the actuator used.
• Determination of parameters of the PWM signals to control the solenoid valves integrated in Type EP 501 /
EP 501 C.
• Adjustment of the controller parameters for the positioner. Optimization occurs according to the criteria of the
