3. Run a partial stroke test.
the actuator pressure starts high and moves low, find the minimum actuator pressure (Pmin). If the actuator
pressure starts low and moves high, find the maximum actuator pressure (Pmax). Doubleacting actuators will
display differential pressure. Use table 3‐7 to estimate the partial stroke pressure limit.

5. Enable the parameters that were previously disabled:
D
Travel Deviation Alert - set to 1.5 x the maximum travel deviation between travel set point and travel.
D
End Point Pressure Control - enable
D
Partial Stroke Pressure Limit - calculate the value using table 3‐7.
