Travel History
D
Cycle Count High Alert— This alert is active if the Cycle Counter exceeds the Cycle Count Alert Point. The Cycle Count
records the number of times the travel changes direction when it is outside of the deadband. To clear the alert, set
the Cycle Counter to a value less than the alert point.
D
Travel Accumulator High Alert— This alert is active if the Travel Accumulator exceeds the Travel Accumulator Alert
Point. The Travel Accumulator totalizes the travel of the valve when the deadband is exceeded. To clear the alert,
set the Travel Accumulator to a value less than the alert point.
Note
The Cycle Count / Travel Accumulator Deadband applies to both the Cycle Count High Alert and the Travel Accumulator High
Alert.
The deadband is the percent (%) of ranged travel around a travel reference point. The travel reference point gets
re­established to the point of travel reversal that occurs outside of the deadband. The deadband must be exceeded
before a change in travel direction will be counted as a cycle and the accumulated travel (up to the point of travel
reversal) is added to the total accumulation. See figure 5‐2.
