The interval can be configured between 1…30 % . The Setpoint Change is limited to 30% to ensure that the valve cannot be
accidentally fully closed . The value is preset to 10% .
Max. Wait Time for Position Change
The Maximum Wait Time for Position Change is the time in Seconds how long the positioner will keep the Setpoint Change
active . If the valve is not stuck, the positioner will perform the setpoint change and return back to the fully open 100%
position immediately . In the case the valve should have a sluggish reaction, be sticky or stuck then the positioner will
continue to apply the Setpoint Change as long as the configured Maximum Wait Time for Position Change . If after that time the
valve doesn’t move, the positioner will discontinue the test and execute the Testing Status: Error .
The interval can be configured between 1 to 600 seconds . The value is preset to 10 seconds .
