13  Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I set the Final Value Cutoff Low at 5 percent. How will the 

positioner operate?

A: Assume that the present command signal is at 50 percent. If the 
command signal is decreased, the positioner will follow the command 
until it reaches 5 percent. At 5 percent, the spool will be driven fully 
open or fully closed, depending on the air action of the valve, in order 
to provide full actuator saturation and tight shutoff. The positioner 
will maintain full saturation below 5 percent command signal. As the 
command increases, the positioner will remain saturated until the 
command reaches 6 percent (there is a 1 percent hysteresis value 
added by the positioner). At this point, the stem position will follow the 
command signal. While in Final Value Cutoff, the Logix 3400

MD 

LEDs 

will blink GGGY.

Q: I have Final Value Cutoff set to 3 percent but the valve will not go 

below 10 percent.

A: Is a lower soft stop enabled? The lower soft stop must be less than 
or equal to zero percent in order for the Final Value Cutoff to become 
active. If a positive lower soft stop is written, this stop will take priority 
over the Final Value Cutoff feature. When the lower soft stop is reached, 
the positioner will blink a GYGYs code.

Q: Will soft stops prevent the valve from going to its fail position?

A: No.

Q: What is the difference between a model with Standard diagnostics 

and a model with Advanced diagnostics?

A: The model with Advanced diagnostics adds top and bottom actuator 
pressure sensors. This allows for more diagnostic calculations such as 
loss of pressure, friction, advanced signatures, and troubleshooting. 
The pressure sensors, if present, are also used in the positioner control 
algorithm to enhance valve stability.

Q: Can I upgrade from a Standard to an Advanced?

A: Yes. Referencing the IOM, an advanced pressure sensor board 
assembly can be purchased. Simply replace the pressure sensor plug 
plate with the advanced pressure sensor board. Perform an actuator 
pressure calibration.
