DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers can be mounted on single or double-acting sliding-stem actuators, as shown in figure 1-1, or on rotary actuators, as shown in figure 1-2. DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers mount on most Fisher and other manufacturers’ rotary and sliding-stem actuators.
DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers are available with several selections of control and diagnostic capability. Control selections include:
Standard Control (SC)— Digital valve
controllers with Standard Control have the AO, PID, ISEL, OS, AI, MAI, DO, and four DI function blocks in addition to the resource and transducer blocks.

Instrument Description

DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers for
FOUNDATION fieldbus are interoperable,
communicating, microprocessor-based, digital-to-pneumatic instruments. In addition to the primary function of converting a digital input signal to a pneumatic output, the DVC6000f Series digital valve controller, using communications protocol, gives easy access to information critical to process operation as well as process control. This can be done using a DeltaV
FOUNDATION fieldbus

Introduction
Analog Output (AO) Function Block—The
analog output function block accepts the output from another function block (such as a PID block) and transfers it as an actuator control signal to the transducer block. If the DO block is selected, the AO block is not functional.
1
Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID)
Function Block—The PID function block performs
proportional-plus-integral-plus-derivative control.
Input Selector (ISEL) Function block—The
input selector function block selects from up to four inputs and may provide the selected signal as input to the PID block. The input selection can be configured to select the first good input signal; a maximum, minimum or average value; or a hot spare.
Performance and Advanced Diagnostics are available with AMS ValveLink Software. They provide visibility to instrument alerts. Fieldbus Diagnostics can be viewed with any host system.

Instrument Blocks

The digital valve controller is a block-based device. For detailed information on the blocks within the digital valve controller, see the Detailed Setup / Blocks section of this manual.
All DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers include the resource and transducer block:
Resource Block—The resource block contains
the hardware specific characteristics associated with a device; it has no input or output parameters. The resource block monitors and controls the general operation of other blocks within the device. For example, when the mode of the resource block is Out of Service, it impacts all function blocks.
Transducer Block—The transducer block
connects the analog output function block to the I/P converter, relay, and travel sensor hardware within the digital valve controller.
Output Splitter (OS) Function Block—The
output splitter function block accepts the output from another function block (such as a PID block) and creates two outputs that are scaled or split, according to the user configuration. This block is typically used for split ranging of two control valves.
Analog Input (AI) Function Block—The analog
input function block monitors the signal from a DVC6000f sensor or internal measurement and provides it to another block.
Multiple Analog Input (AI) Function
Block—The Multiple Analog Input (MAI) function block
has the ability to process up to eight DVC6000f measurements and make them available to other function blocks.
Discrete Output (DO) Function Block—The
discrete output function block processes a discrete set point and sends it to a specified output channel, which can be transferred to the transducer block for actuator control. In the digital valve controller, the discrete output block provides both normal open/closed control and the ability to position the valve in 5% increments for course throttling applications. If the AO block is selected, the DO block is not functional.

Function Blocks

In addition to the resource and transducer block, the digital valve controller may contain the following function blocks. For additional information on function blocks, refer to Appendix B, Communication.
March 2006
FOUNDATION fieldbus
Discrete Input (DI) Function Block—The
discrete input function block processes a single discrete input from a DVC6000f and makes it available to other function blocks. In the digital valve controller, the discrete input function block can provide limit switch functionality and valve position proximity detection.

Using This Manual

Procedures that require the use of the Model 375 Field Communicator have the Field Communicator symbol
in the heading.
Also included is the path required to accomplish
1
various tasks; the sequence of steps through the Field Communicator menus. For example, the path to Resource Block Mode is RB > Setup > Res Block Mode.
An overview of the Model 375 Field Communicator resource block and transducer block menu structures are shown at the beginning of this manual. Menu structures for the function blocks are included with each function block section in Detailed Setup / Blocks.
Throughout this document, parameters are typically referred to by their common name or label, followed by the parameter name and index number; for example, Write Priority (WRITE_PRI [39]). However, not all interface systems support the use of the parameter label and instead use only the Parameter Name, followed by the index number, when referring to the block parameters.

Installation
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before mounting the DVC6000f Series digital valve controller:
Always wear protective clothing
and eyewear when performing any installation procedures.
Disconnect any operating lines
providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
Use bypass valves or completely
shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure from both sides of the valve.
Vent the pneumatic actuator
loading pressure and relieve any actuator spring precompression.
Use lock-out procedures to be
sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
Check with your process or
safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process media.

Special Instructions for Safe Use and Installation in Hazardous Locations

Mounting

Type DVC6010f on Sliding-Stem Actuators Up to 102 mm (4 Inches) of Travel

WARNING
Refer to the Installation WARNING at the beginning of this section.
If ordered as part of a control valve assembly, the factory mounts the digital valve controller on the actuator, makes pneumatic connections to the actuator, sets up, and calibrates the instrument. If you purchased the digital valve controller separately, you will need a mounting kit to mount the digital valve controller on the actuator. See the instructions that come with the mounting kit for detailed information on mounting the digital valve controller to a specific actuator model.
The Type DVC6010f digital valve controller mounts on sliding-stem actuators with up to 102 mm (4-inch) travel. Figure 2-1 shows a typical mounting on an actuator with up to 51 mm (2-inch) travel. Figure 2-2 shows a typical mounting on actuators with 51 to 102 mm (2- to 4-inch) travel. For actuators with greater than 102 mm (4-inch) travel, see the guidelines for mounting a Type DVC6020f digital valve controller.
Refer to the following guidelines when mounting on sliding-stem actuators with up to 4 inches of travel. Where a key number is referenced, refer to figure 11-2.
1. Isolate the control valve from the process line pressure and release pressure from both sides of the valve body. Shut off all pressure lines to the actuator, releasing all pressure from the actuator. Use lock-out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
2. Attach the connector arm to the valve stem connector.
3. Attach the mounting bracket to the digital valve controller housing.
4. If valve travel exceeds 2 inches, a feedback arm extension is attached to the existing 2-inch feedback arm. Remove the existing bias spring (key 78) from the 2-inch feedback arm (key 79). Attach the feedback arm extension to the feedback arm (key 79) as shown in figure 2-2.
5. Mount the digital valve controller on the actuator as described in the mounting kit instructions.
6. Set the position of the feedback arm (key 79) on the digital valve controller to the zero drive position

counterclockwise, from A to B, as air pressure to the casing or lower cylinder increases.
For air-to-close actuators (i.e., the actuator
stem extends from the actuator casing or cylinder as air pressure to the casing or upper cylinder increases), insert the alignment pin into the hole marked ‘‘B’’. For this style actuator, the feedback arm rotates clockwise, from B to A, as air pressure to the casing or upper cylinder increases.
BIAS SPRING
SPRING RELAXED
FEEDBACK ARM
Note
When performing the following steps, ensure there is enough clearance between the adjustment arm and the feedback arm to prevent interference with the bias spring.

Note
All cams supplied with FIELDVUE mounting kits are characterized to provide a linear response.
Type DVC6020f digital valve controllers use a cam (designed for linear response) and roller as the feedback mechanism. Figure 2-4 shows an example of mounting on sliding-stem actuators with travels from 4 inches to 24 inches. Some long-stroke applications will require an actuator with a tapped lower yoke boss. Figures 2-5 and 2-7 show the Type DVC6020f mounted on rotary actuators.
As shown in figure 2-5, two feedback arms are available for the digital valve controller. Most long-stroke sliding-stem and rotary actuator installations use the long feedback arm [62 mm (2.45 inches) from roller to pivot point]. Installations on Fisher Type 1051 size 33 and Type 1052 size 20 and 33 actuators use the short feedback arm [54 mm (2.13

DVC6000f Series digital valve controllers on double-acting actuators always use relay type A. With no instrument Fieldbus power (Zero Power Condition), OUTPUT A is at 0 pressure and OUTPUT B is at full supply pressure when the relay is properly adjusted.
To have the actuator stem retract into the cylinder with Zero Power Condition, connect OUTPUT A to the upper actuator cylinder connection. Connect OUTPUT B to the lower cylinder connection. Figure 2-16 shows the digital valve controller connected to a double-acting piston actuator.
To have the actuator stem extend from the cylinder with Zero Power Condition, connect OUTPUT A to the lower actuator cylinder connection. Connect OUTPUT B to the upper cylinder connection.

Vent Connection

WARNING
Personal injury or property damage can occur from cover failure due to overpressure.
Ensure that the housing vent opening is open and free of debris to prevent pressure buildup under the cover.
The relay output constantly bleeds supply air into the area under the cover. The vent opening at the back of the housing should be left open to prevent pressure buildup under the cover. If a remote vent is required, the vent line must be as short as possible with a minimum number of bends and elbows.
To connect a remote vent to Type DVC6010f and DVC6030f digital valve controllers and Type DVC6015 and DVC6035 remote feedback units sliding-stem remove the plastic vent (key 52, figures
11-1, 11-2 and 11-6). The vent connection is 3/8-inch NPT female. Typically, 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) tubing is used to provide a remote vent.
To connect a remote vent to a Type DVC6020f digital valve controller and a Type DVC6025 remote feedback unit—rotary replace the standard
mounting bracket (key 74, figures 11-1 and 11-4) with the vent-away bracket (key 74). Install a pipe plug in

the vent-away mounting bracket (key 74). Mount the digital valve controller on the actuator as described in the Installation section of this manual. The vent connection is 3/8-inch NPT female. Typically, 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) tubing is used to provide a remote vent.
Use 10 mm (0.275 inch) outside diameter tubing to connect the 1/4-inch NPT digital valve controller output connection to the pneumatic actuator input connection.
If a volume tank is used to attenuate flow instabilities, the volume needs to be at least 1.64 liters (100 cubic inch) but not greater than 4.1 liters (250 cubic inch). To tune the digital valve controller for an assembly equipped with a volume tank, select a tuning set for an actuator with roughly the same volume. Do not use tuning set B when a volume tank is present.
Alternatively, flow fluctuations may be attenuated by placing a 0.9 mm (0.035 inch) fixed restriction between the regulator and the output. A list of fixed restriction orifice specifications is presented in table 2-2.

3RD PARTY FEEDBACK ELEMENT
(WITH 10k W POTENTIOMETER)
Note
The digital valve controller must be configured using the SStem/Roller selection on the menu of the appropriate setup device.
The base unit (DVC6005f) was designed to work with a 40 kOhm potentiometer for travel feedback. However, there are linear potentiometers that are readily available with a rated resistance of 10 kOhm. Therefore, the feedback terminal box on the DVC6005f contains an additional 30 kOhm fixed resistor that may be added to the circuit. This brings the total resistance up to the required 40 kOhm.
1. Stroke the actuator with the 10 kOhm potentiometer to the mid-travel position, which corresponds to the potentiometer value of 5 kOhm. This will leave an equal amount of unused resistive element on both ends of the travel, which is required by the digital valve controller to function properly.
2. On the base unit, remove the feedback connections terminal box cap (refer to figure 2-15).
Using a Potentiometer with Two Fixed Resistors as a Remote Travel Sensor
Perform the following procedures if a potentiometer is used with the same, or slightly longer travel than the actuator’s travel.
Note
The potentiometer must be capable of resistance close to 0 Ohms.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the potentiometer, ensure that it is free to travel the entire length of the actuators travel.
Note
The digital valve controller must be configured using the SStem/Roller selection on the menu of the appropriate setup device.
3. If necessary, install conduit between the potentiometer and the base unit following applicable local and national electrical codes. Route the 3-conductor shielded cable between the two units (refer to figure 2-20).
4. Connect one wire of the 3-conductor shielded cable between the Terminal labeled “30k ” on the base unit and one end lead of the potentiometer.
5. Connect the second wire of the 3-conductor shielded cable between the middle lead (wiper) of the

Communication Connections

WARNING
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 cap before proceeding.
3. Install the fixed resistor (R1) across the unlabeled bottom Terminal and Terminal #1. The bottom terminal does not have a screw. The screw on the 30 kOhm terminal can be used. R1 must be properly insulated when installed in the terminal box to prevent personal injury or property damage.
4. Connect one wire of the 3-conductor shielded cable between the unlabeled bottom Terminal on the base unit and an end-lead on the external potentiometer (Rpot).

Simulate Enable Jumper

WARNING
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 cap before proceeding.
Install a jumper across the SIMULATE ENABLE terminals to enable the instrument to accept a simulate command. (These terminals are marked AUX on the terminal board, see figure 2-17). With the jumper in place and the simulate parameter in the AO or DO block set to enabled, the transducer block ignores the output of the AO or DO block. The simulate value and status become the readback value and status to the AO or DO block and the transducer block is ignored. For more information on running simulations, see the Detailed Setup / Blocks section of this manual, the and the host documentation.
FOUNDATION fieldbus specifications,
WARNING
Removing the jumper will disable the simulate, which may cause the valve to move. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, provide some temporary means of control for the process.

Commissioning Tag

The DVC6000f Series digital valve controller is supplied with a removable paper commissioning tag, shown in figure 2-22. This tag contains both the device ID and a space to record the device’s tag number. The device ID is a unique code that identifies a particular device in the absence of a device tag. The device tag
is used as an operational identification for the device and is usually defined by the piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID).
2
18B9406-D
Figure 2-22. Paper Commissioning Tag
When commissioning more than one device on a fieldbus segment, identifying which device is at a particular location can be tedious without tags. The removable tag provided with the digital valve controller can be used to link the device ID and the physical installation location. The installer should note the physical location in both places on the removable commissioning tag and tear off the bottom portion. This should be done for each device on the segment. The bottom portion of the tags can be used for commissioning the segment in the control system.
Prior to commissioning, the device ID is displayed by the host system if no device tag is configured in the digital valve controller electronics. Typically the placeholder displays the device tag. The information on the paper tag enables the engineer to match the device ID to the correct placeholder.
As an ordering option, the factory can enter a device tag into the digital valve controller electronics during the manufacturing process. If this option is specified, the device tag is displayed at the host system prior to commissioning rather than the device ID. This makes the job of commissioning the device easier.

If you answer YES to the prompt for permission to move the valve when setting the Travel Sensor Motion, the instrument will move the valve through its full travel range. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, provide some temporary means of control for the process.
For instruments with Relay Type A If increasing air
pressure at output A causes the shaft to turn clockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the shaft to turn counterclockwise, enter Counterclockwise.
For instruments with Relay Type B If decreasing
air pressure at output B causes the shaft to turn clockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the shaft to turn counterclockwise, enter Counterclockwise.
Table 4-2 lists the required Travel Sensor Motion selections for Fisher, Baumann, and Gulde actuators.
Tuning Set—There are twelve tuning sets to
choose from. Each tuning set provides a preselected value for the digital valve controller gain settings. Tuning set B provides the slowest response and M provides the fastest response. Table 4-3 lists the values for preselected tuning sets.
In addition, you can select Expert, which allows you to modify tuning of the digital valve controller by specifying the gain values.
Table 4-2 provides tuning set selection guidelines for Fisher, Baumann, and Gulde actuators. These tuning sets are only recommended starting points. After you finish setting up and calibrating the instrument, use the

performance tuner to adjust the tuning set to get the desired response.
Note
When selecting a tuning set for a DVC6015, DVC6025 or DVC6035 remote mount unit, it may be necessary to reduce the tuning set, due to the effects of the long tubing between the digital valve controller and the actuator.
For an actuator not listed in the table, you can estimate a starting tuning set by calculating the casing or cylinder volume. Then, in the table, find an actuator with the closest equivalent volume and use the tuning set suggested for that actuator.

display. The calibration procedure uses the valve and actuator stops as the 0% and 100% calibration points. For additional information, refer to Auto Calibrate Travel in this section.
Note
Relay adjustment for single acting relays is not normally required. However, it is recommended that you check the relay adjustment for double acting relays in new installations before proceeding with travel calibration. Refer to page 6-5 for relay adjustment instructions.
If after completing auto setup and auto calibration the valve seems slightly unstable or unresponsive, you can improve operation by selecting Stabilize/Optimize from the Basic Setup menu. For additional information on stabilizing or optimizing valve response, refer to Stabilize/Optimize, also in this section.

Figure 4-3. Crossover Point
There are two Auto Travel Calibration options available; autocalibrate-standard or autocalibrateextended. Autocalibrate-extended is used for very large, slow moving actuators or actuators with accessories, and may also be needed for remote mount calibration.
Auto Travel Calibration requires user interaction only when the Feedback Connection is SStem - Standard. If the Feedback Connection is Rotary - All, SStem ­Roller, no user interaction is required. For valves with the SStem - Standard Feedback Connection, interaction provides a more accurate crossover adjustment.
1. Select the method of crossover adjustment: manual, last value, or default. Manual adjustment is recommended.
If you select Last Value, the crossover setting currently stored in the instrument is used and there are no further user interactions with the auto-calibration routine (go to step 3). If you select Default, an approximate value for the crossover is sent to the instrument and there are no further user interactions with the auto-calibration routine (go to step 3). If you select Manual, the Field Communicator prompts you to adjust the transducer block set point until the feedback arm is 90° to the actuator stem, as shown in figure 4-3. After you have made the adjustment, press OK and go to step 3.
2. The Field Communicator displays a menu to allow you to adjust the crossover.

5. Enter the location of the calibration procedure.
6. Enter the date of the calibration procedure.
7. Place the Transducer Block Mode in Auto and verify that the travel properly tracks the setpoint changes.

Tuning

Stabilize/Optimize
(TB > Basic Setup > Stabilize/Optimize)
If after completing initial setup and calibration the valve cycles or overshoots, or is sluggish, you can improve operation running Stabilize/Optimize.
WARNING
During Stabilize/Optimize, the valve may move. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, provide some temporary means of control for the process.
Stabilize/Optimize is included with the device description (DD) software. Stabilize/Optimize is accessible from the transducer block and permits changing the transducer block set point a small amount to see if the valve is unstable or unresponsive. If valve response is unsatisfactory, the method permits adjusting the digital valve controller tuning to improve response.
If the valve is unstable, select Decrease Response to stabilize valve operation. This selects the next lower tuning set (e.g., F to E). If the valve response is sluggish, select Increase Response to make the valve more responsive. This selects the next higher tuning set (e.g., F to G).
If after selecting Decrease Response or Increase
Response the valve travel overshoot is excessive, Increase Damping or Decrease Damping can be used
to select a damping value not represented in a predefined tuning set. Select Decrease Damping to select a damping value that allows more overshoot. Select Increase Damping to select a damping value that will decrease the overshoot.
When valve operation is satisfactory, select Exit. Before exiting, you are asked if you want to return the transducer block mode to Auto. Select Yes to change the transducer block mode to Auto. Select No to leave the transducer block in its current mode.

Resource Block Overview

The resource block contains the hardware specific characteristics associated with a device; it has no input or output parameters. The resource block monitors and controls the general operation of other blocks within the device. Most of the resource block parameters are operational parameters that provide information about the instrument such as identification, hardware information, available options, etc. and are read only. Configuration of the resource block involves selecting features from those that are available, setting the mode, setting write lock, and setting up alert reporting details.
The following procedures address only the key resource block parameters; however, all resource block parameters are listed in table 5-5.
5

Setup

Write Lock
(RB > Setup > WriteLock)
Write Lock
Write Lock (WRITE_LOCK [34]) determines if writes are permissible to other device parameters. The Soft Write Lock feature must be selected to be able to use Write Lock (see Features). When Write Lock is set to Locked, no writes are permitted to any parameters within the device except to set Write Lock to Not Locked. When locked, the device functions normally, updating inputs and outputs and executing algorithms. When Write Lock is set to Not Locked, the Write Alarm (WRITE_ALM [40]) alert is active.
Write Priority
Write Priority (WRITE_PRI [39]) sets the priority for Write Alarm. The lowest priority is 0. The highest is
15.
Comm Time Out
(RB > Setup > Comm Time Out)
RCas Timeout
Resource Block Mode
(RB > Setup > Res Block Mode)
Modes
The resource block can be in one of two modes (MODE_BLK [5]):
Automatic (Auto)—This is the operational mode for
this block. When the resource block is in the Auto mode, all other function blocks are allowed to function normally.
Out of Service (OOS)—Placing the resource block
in Out of Service mode stops all function block execution, by setting their modes to Out of Service as well. The actual mode of the function blocks is changed to Out of Service, but the function block target modes are retained . Placing the resource block in the Out of Service mode does not affect the mode of the transducer block.
5-4
Note
Typically this parameter does not need to be changed. The unit will be operational using the default values assigned by the factory. Perform this procedure only if a remote computer is sending setpoints from your “advanced” control.
Default value for RCas Timeout is 20 seconds.
RCas Timeout (SHED_RCAS [26]) determines how long function blocks in the DVC6000f should wait before giving up on remote computer writes to RCas parameters. When the timeout is exceeded, the block sheds to the next mode as defined by the block shed options. If RCas Timeout is set to 0, the block will not shed from RCas. Enter a positive value in the RCas Timeout Timeout field. Time duration is in 1/32 milliseconds (640000
= 20 secs).

Resource Block
ROut Timeout
Note
Typically this parameter does not need to be changed. The unit will be operational using the default values assigned by the factory. Perform this procedure only if a remote computer is sending setpoints from your “advanced” control.
Default value for ROut Timeout is 20 seconds.
ROut Timeout (SHED_ROUT [27]) determine how long function blocks in the DVC6000f should wait before giving up on computer writes to ROut parameters. When the timeout is exceeded, the block sheds to the next mode as defined by the block shed options. If ROut Timeout is set to 0, the block will not shed from ROut. Enter a positive value in the ROut Timeout field. Time duration is in 1/32 milliseconds (640000 = 20 secs).
Fault State—Selecting fault state enables the
ability to manually set and clear the fault state. See parameter descriptions for Set Fault State (SET_FSTATE [29]) and Clear Fault State (CLR_FSTATE [30]) in table 5-5.
Soft Write Lock—When selected, permits using
Write Lock (WRITE_LOCK [34]) to prevent any external change to parameter values. Block connections and calculation results will proceed normally, but the configuration is locked. Also see Write Lock, on page 5-4.
Output Readback—Output Readback is always
enabled and is always from the actual valve position.
Renunciation Supported— When selected, the
instrument will support Renunciation of alarms.
PW Alarms set PV Status— When selected,
PlantWeb to table 5-1.
alarms will set the PV status according
DO Control— When selected, the transducer
block accepts setpoint changes from the DO block. When not selected the transducer block accepts setpoint changes from the AO block. The resource block must be Out of Service to change this selection.
5
Options
(RB > Setup > Options)
Feature Selection
Note
Typically this parameter does not need to be changed. The unit will be operational using the default values assigned by the factory.
Fault State, Soft Write Lock, and Output Readback are set by default.
Feature Selection (FEATURE_SEL [18]) indicates which Resource Block Options features have been selected and is used to select the desired features.
Reports—Selecting reports enables alert and
event reporting. Reporting of specific alerts may be suppressed. See Alerts on page 5-29.
When DO Control is set, the AO block remains in IMAN and the DO block is fully functional. When not selected, the DO block remains in IMAN and the AO block is fully functional.
Alarm Handling
(RB > Setup > Alarm Handling)
Alert Key
Alert Key (ALERT_KEY [4]) is a number that permits grouping alerts. This number may be used to indicate to the operator the source of the alert, such as the instrument, plant unit, etc. Enter a value between 1 and 255.
Confirm Time
Confirm Time (CONFIRM_TIME [33]) determines the time, in 1/32 of a millisecond, the instrument waits for confirmation of receipt of a report before trying again. If Confirm Time is 0, the instrument does not retry to send the report. Enter 0 or a value between 320000 (10 secs) and 640000 (20 secs).

Master Reset
(RB > Master Reset)
You can restart the instrument to reset parameters, links, etc. within the instrument. However, due to the effect that a restart can have on the instrument, and therefore the control loop, restarting the instrument should be used cautiously and only as a last measure.
The following procedure describes how to use Master Reset to restart the instrument with a Field
Communicator. You can also restart the instrument using AMS ValveLink Software or from a host system using the Restart method included with the device description (DD) software.
You can restart the instrument any time it is connected to an active segment.
WARNING
Restarting the instrument may cause loss of process control. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure of process fluid, provide some temporary means of control for the process.
5
To restart the instrument, select Resource Block and Master Restart on the Field Communicator.
1. Restart informs you about what can happen when an instrument restart is performed. Select Yes to continue, or No to abort without restarting.
2. Select the desired restart action or select EXIT to exit Restart. Select Help (not the Help button) to get information on restart actions.
There are two different restarts: Restart Processor, and Restart with Defaults:
When selecting either of these options, Restart informs you of the consequences of this action and asks if you want to continue. Select Yes to perform the restart action or select No to select another action or exit. Restart informs you when the restart is completed. You must acknowledge the message to continue.
Restart Processor—Performing a Restart Processor has the same effect as removing power from the instrument and re-applying power. Configuration and calibration do not change.
Restart with Defaults—Performing a Restart with Defaults should be done with care. This restart resets the static and non-volatile parameters for all of the blocks in the instrument to their initial value, as listed in table 5-4. After a Restart with Defaults, you should run the Setup Wizard and download the instrument configuration from the control system to properly setup the instrument. You also may need to re-establish communication links and trends.

Description
Data Type: Unsigned32 Manufacturer identification number, used by an interface device or host to locate the DD file for the resource. All manufacturer identification numbers are maintained by the Fieldbus Foundation. A host usually will have a base directory for DD files. In this directory is a subdirectory for each manufacturer id. In each manufacturer id subdirectory is a directory for each device type made by that manufacturer. The device type directories contain files named by combining the device revision for the particular device type with the revision of the device description. The manufacturer id for Fisher is 0x005100.
Data Type: Unsigned16 Manufacturer’s model number associated with the resource, used by an interface device to locate the DD file for the resource.
Data Type: Unsigned8 Manufacturer’s revision number associated with the resource, used by an interface device to locate the DD file for the resource.
Data Type: Unsigned8 The minimum revision of the device description (DD) than can be used with the device revision of the instrument. Used by the interface device to prevent the use of DDs that are incompatible with the firmware in the instrument.
Data Type: DS-70 Options for controlling access of a host computer and to block parameters. Parameter contains two attributes Grant and Deny each with program, tune, alarm and local permissions. Clearing a grant permission sets the corresponding deny permission, 0 = N/A, 1 = granted. Deny permissions may be cleared through the Deny attribute but not set, 0 = N/A, 1 = denied.
Data Type: Bit String 0 = Inactive 1 = Active The types of hardware available as channel numbers in this resource.
Data Type: Unsigned8 Allows a manual restart to be initiated. For details see Restarting the Instrument in this section.
Data Type: Bit String 0 = Inactive 1 = Active Shows the supported resource block options. Options are turned on and off via FEATURE_SELECT.

Data Type: Bit String 0 = Inactive 1 = Active Shows the selected resource block options. For details see Device Features in this section.
Data Type: Bit String 0 = Inactive 1 = Active Identifies the block execution methods available for this resource, may be scheduled, completion of block execution
Data Type: Bit String 0 = Inactive 1 = Active Identifies the block execution method selected for this resource.
Data Type: Unsigned32 Time duration of the shortest cycle interval (in 1/32 millisecond) of which the resource is capable. In the DVC this value is fixed at 3200 (100 milliseconds).
Date Type: Unsigned16 Memory, in kilobytes, available for additional function blocks. Because no additional function blocks may be added to DVC6000f Series instruments, this parameter value is fixed at 0.
Date Type: Unsigned32 This parameter identifies the minimum time interval (in 1/32 milliseconds) between copies of NV class data to NV memory. NV memory is updated only if there has been a change in the dynamic value. The last value saved in NV memory will be available for the restart procedure or a power cycle. A non-zero value regulates the frequency of writes, thus protecting the life span of the device. If the value is zero, data will never be automatically copied. Changes made by other than publishing to NV parameters will be copied to non-volatile memory immediately. For DVC6000f Series instruments, this parameter value is fixed at 576,000 (18 seconds).
Data Type: Float Percent of memory available for additional function blocks (see also MEMORY_SIZE). Because no additional function blocks may be added to DVC6000f Series instruments, this parameter value is fixed at 0.
Data Type: Float Percent of block processing time that is free to process additional blocks. Because no additional function blocks may be added to DVC6000f Series instruments, this parameter value is fixed at 0.

Description
Date Type: Unsigned32 Time duration (in 1/32 millisecond) at which to give up on computer writes to function block RCAS parameters. If this time is exceeded then the function block will change to a mode other than RCAS based on the SHED_OPT parameter setting. Shed from RCAS mode never happens when SHED_RCAS is set to zero.
Data Type: Unsigned32 Time duration (in 1/32 millisecond) at which to give up on computer writes to function block ROUT parameters. If this time is exceeded then the function block will change to a mode other than ROUT based on the SHED_OPT parameter setting. Shed from ROUT mode never happens when SHED_ROUT is set to zero.
Data Type: Unsigned8 Forces output function blocks that are not Out of Service to the fault state condition. While this parameter is active the output function blocks will go to an actual mode of Local Override (LO) and will perform their fault state actions (see Action On Fault Detection for the output blocks on pages 5-70 and 5-149 of this section). This parameter is used to test the fault state behavior that normally occurs when there is a communication problem between devices. This parameter is changed by the SET_FSTATE and CLR_FSTATE parameters so long as the feature Fault State is selected (see Feature Selection [index number 18] in this table).
Data Type: Unsigned8 Selecting Set changes the parameter FAULT_STATE to Active. This is essentially a “write only” parameter as it will always read OFF because it is defined as momentary. Writing a value of OFF has no affect. To use this parameter the feature Fault State must be selected (see Feature Selection on page 5-5).
Data Type: Unsigned8 Selecting Clear changes the parameter FAULT_STATE to Clear and clears the output function blocks of the FAULT_STATE if the field condition, if any, has cleared. This is essentially a “write only” parameter as it will always read OFF because it is defined as momentary. Writing a value of OFF has no affect. To use this parameter the feature Fault State must be selected (see Feature Selection on page 5-5).
Data Type: Unsigned8 The maximum number of alert reports that this device can send without getting a confirmation. To control alert flooding, the number can be set lower by adjusting the LIM_NOTIFY parameter value. For DVC6000f Series instruments, this value is fixed at 3.
Data Type: Unsigned8 The number of alert reports that this device can send without getting a confirmation up to the maximum permitted in the parameter MAX_NOTIFY. If set to zero, then no alerts are reported.

Description
Data Type: Unsigned32 The time (in 1/32 millisecond) the device waits for confirmation of receipt of an alert report before trying again.
Data Type: Unsigned8 If set to Locked, no writes from anywhere are allowed except to clear WRITE_LOCK by entering Unlocked. Block inputs will continue to be updated if they are subscribers. The feature Soft Write Lock must be selected to enable writing to this parameter (see Device Features in this section).
Data Type: DS-73 This alert is generated by any change to the static data. To support tracking changes in static parameter values, the blocks static revision parameter will be incremented each time a static parameter value is changed. Also, the blocks static revision parameter may be incremented if a static parameter is written but the value is not changed. If the Actual Mode is not Out of Service and Reports is selected in the Feature Select parameter, then this parameter will be sent to the host system providing the host has set up alert communications. Changes to static data while the block is Out of Service will be reported when the block transitions to another mode.
Data Type: DS-72 This alarm is generated by a nonzero value in the Block Error. parameter. This alarm has a fixed priority of 2. For a BLOCK_ALM to be broadcast to the host the following conditions must be met:
The feature Reports must be selected Alert communication with the host must be
setup
In the ALARM_SUM parameter, the disable
bit for Block Alarm must be clear.
Data Type: DS-74 0=clear, acknowledged, reported, enabled Current alert status, unacknowledged states, unreported states, and disabled states of the alarms associated with the function block. The Resource block only has two alarms: Write Alarm and Block Alarm.
Data Type: Bit String 0=Disable 1=Enable Selection of whether alarms associated with the block will be automatically acknowledged.
Data Type: Unsigned8 Priority of the alarm generated by setting WRITE_LOCK to Unlocked.

Transducer Block

Transducer Block Overview

The transducer block accepts a signal from an output block as a set point to position a valve using a pneumatic actuator. Input to the transducer block is in percent. Closed is 0%, and open is 100%. The transducer block contains setup and calibration information and can be tuned to closely match the actuator. Input characterization permits modifying the overall characteristic of the instrument-actuator-valve combination in order to modify the installed gain characteristic of the loop. The transducer block can also be used to perform instrument and valve diagnostics and trigger performance alerts.
The following procedures address only the key transducer block parameters; however, all transducer block parameters are listed in table 5-13.

Detailed Setup

Note
(FINAL_VALUE [13]. The tranducer block will not accept changes from the AO or DO blocks. This mode is required to change some parameters and to run some diagnostics.
Protection
(TB > Detailed Setup > Protection) To configure any parameters in the digital valve
controller Write Lock (WRITE_LOCK [34]), in the resource block, must be set to Unlocked (refer to page 5-4). In addition, protection is provided for various transducer block parameters, as indicated in the Protect Category column of table 5-13, to prevent inadvertently overwriting key data by the host system or user.
5
All— will protect all transducer block Parameters.  Setup and Calibration— will protect only Setup
and Calibration transducer block parameters.
Calibration— will protect only Calibration
transducer block parameters.
None— will not protect any transducer block
parameters.
To setup and calibrate the instrument, the transducer block Mode must be Manual and the Protection must be None.
Trans Block Mode
(TB > Detailed Setup > Transducer Block Mode)
Modes
The transducer block can be in one of three modes (MODE_BLK [5]):
Automatic (Auto)— This is the normal mode for
this block. When the transducer block is in the auto mode, it accepts the output from the AO or DO block as a set point and outputs a drive signal to the I/O converter based upon this set point.
Out of Service (OOS)— Placing the transducer
block in Out of Service mode changes the output to the zero power (no I/P drive) condition.
Manual (MAN)— Placing the transducer block in
Manual will hold the value at the current setpoint
Note
The Setup Wizard Auto Travel and Manual Travel methods automatically change transducer block protection for the user.
See table 5-13 for individual parameter details.

Feedback Conn
Zero Pwr Cond
Zero Power Condition (ZERO_PWR_COND [42.2]) identifies whether the valve is open or closed when instrument power is lost. If you are unsure how to set this parameter, disconnect the segment loop power to the instrument. The resulting valve travel is the Zero Power Condition.
Tvl Cutoff Lo
Travel Cutoff Lo (FINAL_VALUE_CUTOFF_LO [16]) defines the low cutoff point for travel, in percent. Below this cutoff, the travel target is set to 23%. A travel cutoff of 0.5% is recommended to help ensure maximum shutoff seat loading. Travel Cutoff Lo is effectively deactivated by setting it to −25%.
Actuator Style
Select the Actuator Style (ACTUATOR_STYLE [42.1]), spring & diaphragm, piston double-acting without spring, piston single-acting with spring, or piston double-acting with spring.
Select the Feedback Connection(FEEDBACK_CONN [42.4]), Rot-All, SS-roller, or SStem-Standard. For rotary valves, enter Rot - All, SS-Roller. For sliding-stem valves, if the feedback linkage consists of a connector arm, adjustment arm, and feedback arm, similar to the linkage shown in figure 5-1, enter SStem
- Standard. If the feedback linkage consists of a roller that follows a cam, similar to the linkage shown in figure 5-2, enter Rotary All, SStem - Roller.
Tvl Sen Motion
Note
The Travel Sensor Motion is set automatically by the Setup Wizard, or during the Auto Calibration procedure.
Select Clockwise or Counterclockwise. Travel Sensor Motion (TRAVEL_SEN_MOTION [42.3]) establishes the proper valve travel sensor (feedback) rotation.

WARNING
If you answer YES to the prompt for permission to move the valve when setting the Travel Sensor Motion, the instrument will move the valve through its full travel range. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, provide some temporary means of control for the process.
Determine the rotation by viewing the end of the travel sensor shaft.
For instruments with Relay Type A If increasing air pressure at output A causes the shaft to turn clockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the shaft to turn counterclockwise, enter Counterclockwise.
For instruments with Relay Type B If decreasing air pressure at output B causes the shaft to turn clockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the shaft to turn counterclockwise, enter Counterclockwise.

Tvl Tuning Set
There are twelve Travel Tuning Sets (TVL_TUNING_SET [42.10]) to choose from. Each tuning set provides a preselected value for the digital valve controller gain settings.
Tuning set B provides the slowest response and M provides the fastest response. Table 5-10 lists the
Note
Use Expert tuning if standard tuning has not achieved the desired results.
Stabilize/Optimize may be used to achieve the desired results more rapidly than Expert tuning.
Table 4-2 provides tuning set selection guidelines for Fisher, Baumann, and Gulde actuators. These tuning sets are recommended starting points. After you finish setting up and calibrating the instrument, you may have to select either a higher or lower tuning set to get the desired response.
For an actuator not listed in table 4-2, you can estimate a starting tuning set by calculating the casing or cylinder volume. Then, find an actuator in table 4-2 with the closest equivalent volume and use the tuning set suggested for that actuator.
Tvl Prop Gain
Travel Proportional Gain (SERVO_GAIN [18]) is the proportional gain for the travel control tuning set. Changing this parameter will also change the tuning set to Expert.

Press Cutoff Lo
Transducer Block
Pressure Cutoff Lo (PRESS_CUTOFF_LO [47.2]) defines the low cutoff point for the pressure in percent (%) of pre-characterized setpoint. Below this cutoff, the pressure target is set to 23%. A Pressure Cutoff Lo of 0.5% is recommended to help ensure maximum shutoff seat loading. Pressure Cutoff Lo is deactivated by setting it to −25.0%
Press Range Hi
Pressure Range Hi (PRESS_RANGE_HI [42.7]) is the high end of output pressure range. Enter the pressure that corresponds with 100% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is closed, or 0% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is open. This pressure must be greater than the Pressure Range Lo.
Press Range Lo
Pressure Range Lo (PRESS_RANGE_LO [42.8]) is the low end of the output pressure range. Enter the pressure that corresponds to 0% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is closed, or 100% valve travel when Zero Power Condition is open. The pressure must be less than the Pressure Range Hi.
Input Char
(TB > Detailed Setup > Response Control > Input Char)
Input Characteristic (INPUT_CHAR [50]) defines the relationship between the travel target and travel set point. Travel set point is the input to the characterization function. Travel target is the output from the characterization function.
You can select from the three fixed input characteristics shown in figure 5-3 or you can select a custom characteristic. Figure 5-3 shows the relationship between the travel target and travel set point for the fixed input characteristics.
Note
Custom Characterization is not available in firmware revision 1.1 or earlier.
Alerts
The DVC6000f provides two levels of alerts; Instrument alerts and PlantWeb alerts.
Instrument Alert Conditions
Instrument Alert Conditions, when enabled, detect many operational and performance issues that may be of interest. To view these alerts, the user must open the appropriate status screen on a host such as DeltaV, AMS ValveLink Software or a 375 Field Communicator.
PlantWeb Alerts
Some instrument alert conditions can also be used to trigger PlantWeb alerts that will be reported in Failed, Maintenance or Advisory categories, as configured by the user. PlantWeb alerts, when enabled, can participate in the DeltaV alarm interface tools such as the alarm banner, alarm list and alarm summary.
When a PlantWeb alert occurs, the DVC6000f sends an event notification and waits a specified period of time for an acknowledgment to be received. This occurs even if the condition that caused the alert no longer exists. If the acknowledgment is not received within the pre-specified time-out period, the event notification is retransmitted. This reduces the possibility of alert messages getting lost.
5
You can specify 21 points on a custom characteristic curve. Each point defines a travel target, in % of ranged travel, for a corresponding set point, in % of ranged set point. Set point values range from −6.25% to 106.25%. Before modification, the custom characteristic is linear.
