This function block reports the feedback of Danfoss Series 7 valve actuators for valves configured for a
float option.
You can move the main spool into its float position by powering a dedicated float pin.
Inputs
Inputs to the function block are described.
ItemTypeRangeDescription
EnableBOOL——Enables and disables the function block.
•
True—Enables the function block's Supply output and releases the block's Output from its neutral
hold (5,000).
•
False— Disables the function block's Supply output and holds the block's Output at neutral (5,000).
•
False—The Output goes to 5,000.
ParaBus
Float_FdbkBus——Reports the pin status of the PVE actuator's Float pin.
FdbkBus——Input for the Status bus from the MFOut that reports the output status of the MFOut that receives the
Error_PinBus——Input for a bus from an MFIn or DigAn with a DigIn signal from the valve actuator's Error_Pin.
Inputs:
Thld_A— Threshold is the hydraulic deadband in the actuator. Applies to the A port.
Thld_B—Threshold is the hydraulic deadband in the actuator. Applies to the B port.
Fault Reaction—T Sets the output constantly in neutral if the Error_Pin goes high.
F Does not change the output in case the Error_Pin goes high.
SuppTimeAtNeut—Supply Time At Neutral: Sets time that the supply stays on after return to neutral. If
-1, then the supply is always on.
The function block uses this input to detect shorts on the PVE actuator's Float output.
function block's Output.
(Each MFOut inside the Inputs page reports, through a Status bus, the state of a corresponding
MFOut inside the Outputs page.)
•
On MC controllers, the Status bus inputs a PinStatus signal.
•
On SC controllers, the Status bus inputs a Status signal.
InputS16±10,000Command signal for the actuator spool.
Function Block Parameter Values
The function block's operating characteristics are set by para bus input signals.
The following table describes the Para bus inputs signals.

T—Requests the actuator spool to float. A true input:
Sets the function block's Float output to true.

Sets the function block's Float output to false.
‒
+10,000—Commands the full travel of the actuator spool in Direction B.
•

parameter sets the amount of time that the supply stays on after return to neutral.
-1—The Supply is always on.
0–30,000—Sets the amount of time in milliseconds that the Supply output stays true after
the function block's Output returns to neutral (5,000).
1,000 is 1,000 ms.
Outputs
Outputs of the function block are described.
ItemTypeRangeDescription
StatusU16——Reports the status of the function block.
See Status and Fault Logic for more about this output.
FaultU16——Reports the faults of the function block.
See Status and Fault Logic for more about this output.
SupplyBOOL——
SOSBOOL——
•
True—The valve actuator under control of this function block requires power to its Supply pin.
•
False— The valve actuator under control of this function block does not require power to its Supply
pin.
See Power Two or More PVE-Type Valve Actuators from One DigOut if you are powering more than one
PVE-type valve from a single DigOut.
•
True— The function block detects no errors in the valve actuator wiring. Power can be shared
between this and other actuators.
•
False— The function block detects an error in the valve actuator wiring. Power must not be applied
to the actuator's Supply pin.
You do not need to connect this output when you control just one actuator.
See Power Two or More PVE-Type Valve Actuators from One DigOut if you are powering more than one
PVE-type valve from a single DigOut.
ItemTypeRangeDescription
FloatBOOL——Output to the actuator Float pin.
•
True— Allow actuator spool to float.
•
False—The function block's Output controls actuator spool position.
OutputBus——Outputs a bus with OutputValue and DutyOut signals.
•
On MC controllers, the OutputValue signal proportionally commands the valve actuator.
•
On SC controllers, the DutyOut signal proportionally commands the valve actuator.
Function Block Connections
The connections that can be made with the function block are described.

Threshold and Maximum Values
Learn how the output of the function block is determined according to minimum, threshold and
maximum values.
The function block outputs a bus with an OutputValue signal. This signal commands the valve actuator.
Fault logic helps you determine errors in hardware, inputs or circuits.

A delayed fault is reported if the detected fault condition persists for a specified delay time. A delayed fault cannot be cleared until the fault condition
remains undetected for the delay time.
‡
The function block maintains a latched fault report until the latch releases. The function block attempts a release each time the Error_Pin is false
