Step 4—Configure the Digital Valve Controller
WARNING
Select wiring and/or cable glands that are rated for the environment of use (such as hazardous area, ingress protection and
temperature). Failure to use properly rated wiring and/or cable glands can result in personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.
Wiring connections must be in accordance with local, regional, and national codes for any given hazardous area approval.
Failure to follow the local, regional, and national codes could result in personal injury or property damage from fire or
explosion.
To avoid personal injury resulting from electrical shock, do not exceed maximum input voltage specified on the product
nameplate. If the input voltage specified differs, do not exceed the lowest specified maximum input voltage.
Personal injury or property damage caused by fire or explosion may occur if this connection is attempted in a potentially
explosive atmosphere or in an area that has been classified as hazardous. Confirm that area classification and atmosphere
conditions permit the safe removal of the terminal box cover before proceeding.
The valve may move in an unexpected direction when power is applied to the digital valve controller. To avoid personal
injury and property damage caused by moving parts, keep hands, tools, and other objects away from the valve/actuator
assembly when applying power to the instrument.
While configuring the digital valve controller the valve may move, causing process fluid or pressure to be released. To
avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of process fluid or pressure, isolate the valve from the
process and equalize pressure on both sides of the valve or bleed off the process fluid.
Changes to the instrument setup may cause changes in the output pressure or valve travel. Depending on the application,
these changes may upset process control, which may result in personal injury or property damage.
CAUTION
Before proceeding, check that all pressure connections, fasteners, and plugs are installed and tightened.
Ensure that the base unit is wired to the feedback unit before providing electrical power. Failure to do so may cause the
DVC6005 to go into “Pressure Control” mode if Pressure Fallback is configured. The unit can be returned to “Travel
Control” mode using Detailed Configuration.
