11.2 Position-feedback transmitter 4 - 20mA 

The electrical position-feedback transmitter is an 
accessory either installed in the factory (no retrofit 
possible). It converts the rotary movement of an 
actuator into an electrical standard signal 4...20mA. 
The start-up procedure is described in step 7.1 

 7.7. 

The electronic connection of the position transmitter 

must be assured. Both LED’s are then light up. 

 

 
 

Adjusting the start of the measuring range (4mA)  

a)  Move the actuator to the starting position.  
b)  

Press push button S1 „Config Output 4mA“ longer 

than 2s. During this time LED 1 lights up. After 2s both 

LED’s are light up again, the value for 4mA is stored. 

 

 
 

Adjusting the end of the measuring range (20mA)  

a)  Move the actuator to the end position.  
b)  

Press push button S2 „Config Output 20mA“ longer

 

than 2s. During this time LED 2 lights up. After 2s both 

LED’s are light up again, the value for 20mA is stored. 

 

 

Random adjustment of the current values  
at the end points  

a)   Move the actuator to the end position, where you 

want to adjust the current.  

b)   Press both buttons simultaneously for about 2s. 

Then both LED’s are alternating flashing in a slow 

frequency.  

c)   

With push button S1 „Config Output 4mA“ the 

output current value can be decreased and with 

push button S2 „Config Output 20mA“ the output 

current value can be increased. Pressing the 
buttons for a short moment results in a small 
change and pressing the button for a longer time 
results in a fast mode for a bigger change. The 
value of the current can be freely decreased 
between about 3,3 and increased up to 22,5 mA.  

d)  Without any additional manipulations of the push 

buttons the new value is automatically saved. After 
a few seconds, the device returns into the normal 

operating mode, indicated by both LED’s that are 

then light up again.  

 
 

Trouble shooting of the position transmitter  

 
The components of the position transmitter are under 
constant surveillance by the installed micro controller. 

Errors are detected and indicated when both LED’s 

are off or both LED’s are parallel flashing at a fast 

frequency.  
In the event of a fatal error, e.g. potentiometer not 
connected, an output current of more then 24mA will 
be shown in addition to the error indication given by 

the LED’s (fast flashing). 

 

 
In this case check the following:  
a)   if the potentiometer is correctly connected to the 

electronic board.  

b)   if the potentiometer is within its working span. 

When both LED’s are off, the supply voltage 

should be checked (minimum tension, polarity).
