Writing a zero to integral gain (IGAIN) will clear the integral summer. The integral gain can then be
returned to its original value.

Inner loop offset (IL_OFFSET): Three control numbers are summed to drive the inner loop spool
position control: proportional gain, integral summer, and inner-loop offset.

Inner-loop offset is the parameter that holds the spool in the ‘null’ or ‘balance’ position with a control
deviation of zero. This value is written by the positioner during stroke calibration and is a function of
the mechanical and electrical spool sensing tolerances. However, if it becomes necessary to replace
the driver module assembly or the software RESET calibration constants has been performed, it may
be necessary to adjust this value. The method below should be used to adjust inner-loop offset.

Or simply perform a new stroke calibration.

From the fieldbus configurator:

• Set transducer block to OOS

• Enable Diagnostic Variable access in TEST_MODE

• Send a 50 percent command.

• Set integral to zero.

• Locate the DAC_PERCENT

• Write this percentage value to IL_OFFSET

• Write original value to Integral

These tuning sets can be used to obtain initial values for Flowserve products and comparable
actuator sizes. The user may need to adjust this tuning to achieve optimal performance for a
particular application.
