Maintenance information
Available tabs
The maintenance information is processed in the following six tabs:

"Maintenance information (last maintenance)" tab
●
"Maintenance counter" tab
●
"Operating temperature" tab
●
"Operating times" tab
●
"Static revision numbers" counter
Use
The "Maintenance information (current)" tab contains an overview of the values determined
by the positioner during the last initialization process. Use the "Save maintenance
information (last maintenance)" button to transfer the current values to the memory of the
positioner. You can use these values in the "Maintenance information (last maintenance)"
tab as the reference values for comparison at the time of a subsequent re-initialization of the
device. When saving the current values, you will be prompted to enter the maintenance date.
Use the "Reset maintenance information" button to reset the maintenance date to
01.01.2000. This date indicates the positioner that no maintenance has been carried out as
yet.
The saved values are then hidden in the next "Maintenance information (last maintenance)"
tab.
The "Maintenance counter" contains an overview of the number of:
●
Strokes,
●
Changes of direction
●
Fault messages
●
Alarms
●
switching cycles of piezo valves.
Press the "Reset maintenance counter" button to access a selection menu to reset all
maintenance counters at one go or individually.
The "Operating temperature" tab displays the minimum, current and maximum temperatures
in the pointer instruments.
The "Operating times" tab contains the number of operating hours of the positioner and the
time elapsed since the last initialization.
The "Static revision numbers" tab gives an overview of the status of the revision numbers of
PROFIBUS blocks. Revision numbers of a block are incremented whenever a parameter in
the corresponding block is changed.
