This manual provides instruction on the set-

up and analysis of the actuator.

It is structured so that instruction on using the
setting tool, navigation and password security is
contained in section 1.1.

This then must be applied when changing
settings and viewing information as set out in
section 2.5.

The user must therefore be familiar with
the operations contained in section 1 before
proceeding.

Prior to starting the test place the remote selector switch into the
local position.

Once at the Setup option, press the key to initiate the full
stroke set up, once entered the actuator will run from either the
Closed or Open limit to the opposite position, returning back for
two to three complete cycles. During this process the electronics

Introduction

In addition to standard hardwired control, the actuator can have
up to two remote control options fitted. For most remote control
systems employed by end-users, only one control option is used.

For control systems using analogue control only or where
analogue and network (such as Modbus) control is used. Control
(hardwired / analogue or analogue / network) can be switched
by the user using the manual / auto input available with the
analogue option and the settings made in control source.
When analogue and network options are fitted and analogue
is switched to control, the network option cannot control the
actuator but will continue to report actuator status.

The control source will be set by Rotork to the defaults
required for the option(s) fitted. Refer to table: Control
Source Settings.

For analogue control, if both manual (hardwired control
inputs) and auto (analogue control) is to be used, the
control selection will require re-setting. If only analogue
control is required, the default settings for control source
will be correct. Refer also to 2.3.2-6.

The control source is used to:

• Control source 1 / source 2 - Associate fitted control option(s)
to a source of control (source 1 or source 2).

• Control selection - Set which control source (1 or 2) has
priority when manual / auto input is used to switch between
analogue and network option source.

• Lost signal - Determines the actuator response to a lost
analogue signal or network communication.

The control source settings page shown above is an
example of an actuator with the analogue remote control
option. The actuator display will indicate fitted options.

- Refer to wiring diagram for options fitted.
