B. Valves Setup Screen
The Valves Setup screen (C4 tab) allows you to
specify the type of valve connected to each out-
put on the MultiFlex ESR board:
Enter specifics about the valves that are
connected to the MultiFlex ESR.
All valves on this screen are listed in eight rows
numbered one (
#1
) through eight (
#8
). The
number on each row corresponds to the similarly
numbered point on the MultiFlex ESR. For each
MultiFlex ESR point that has a valve attached to
it, define the following fields:
OvrClose%
The Over Close Percentage is the
percentage of the MaxStep parameter that
the valve will attempt to close past its 0%
limit for defrost. This will ensure the valve is
fully closed when the circuit associated with
the valve goes into defrost.
For example, when a valve with an Over
Close Percentage of 5% and a Maximum
Steps value of 800 is called upon to over
close (i.e., defrost), the valve will travel to
the step that it counts as 0% and then attempt
to close 40 more steps. By doing this, any
error that may cause the valve to be slightly
open at 0% will be eliminated.
It is recommended that this value be set to
5% for all Emerson Flow Control valves. For
more information, refer to the Valve
Specifications tables at the end of this
manual.
Step Rate
The Step Rate field corresponds to
the valve manufacturer’s recommended step
rate in steps-per-second. The default, 50
steps per second, is the correct step rate for
the ESR 12 and ESR 20 valves. If using
different types of valves, refer to the Valve
Specifications tables at the end of this
manual and enter the rate listed for your
valve type.
MaxStep
The MaxStep field is where you must
enter the total number of steps the valve
travels between fully closed (0%) and fully
open (100%). This is a physical property of
the valve. Refer to the Valve Specifications
tables at the end of this manual to determine
the total number of valve steps.
