Bench Quick Start

The goal of this procedure is to perform a configuration of the SVi1000 up to running Find Stops
and Autotune on a bench. Additionally, this document also provides guidance on when to run
signatures and produce associated reports. This procedure uses GE’s ValVue* 3 software
(ver. 3.20 or later) and the SVi1000* DTM (ver. 2.20.0 or later).

This procedure consists of the following major steps:

“1. Physical Setup” on page 4

“2. Software Install and Configuration” on page 5

“3. Perform Setup Wizard” on page 10

“4. Save Settings and Device Baseline” on page 12

Changing the Application to Normal mode may move the valve. It
may be dangerous if someone is still working with the valve.

1. Physical Setup

1. Buy a kit similar to the one shown in Figure 1. This kit contains a HART® Loop Calibrator
(with wall power supply and loop test lead wires) and either a USB connector or a serial
port connector for your laptop. The setup shown in Figure 1 is a GE product and can be
purchased at:

https://www.gemeasurement.com/test-calibration/calibrators/ups-iii-loop-calibrator-ma-v

2. Download and install software to use HART

®

loop on your PC. For example, MACTek® USB
or RS232 software (Universal VIATOR Installer v3.1.9 with Drivers for 32 bit Windows XP/
Vista/7/8) available at software https://www.mactekcorp.com/download.php. When
installed this software should the serial or USB port into which it is plugged. If it does not,
the VIATOR installation includes a utility called USB View for viewing USB connections. For
a serial connection, you can check using Windows Device Manager.

3. Prepare the HART

®

hardware by:

a. Plugging the HART

®

Loop Power Calibrator power supply in and setting up the

calibrator as per its manual, ensuring the mode is correct to supply a 4 - 20 mA.

b. Plugging the USB plug or serial connector into the appropriate connector on the

laptop/PC. Opening the cover on the SVi1000 and connecting the other end of the
USB/Serial connector to the 4 - 20 mA connections.

c. Connecting the loop calibrator cables to the 4 - 20 mA connections. Maintain polarity

+ and -, respectively.

15 -100 psi (1.03 - 7 bar) (103 - 690 kPa)

 Minimum tubing diameter 1⁄4" (6mm x 4mm)

 Any other pneumatic accessories are correctly piped without restricting the SVi1000

output(s) to the actuator.
