Basic Setup
Field Communicator Configure > Guided Setup (1‐1)
WARNING
Changes to the instrument setup may cause changes in the output pressure or valve travel. Depending on the application,
these changes may upset process control, which may result in personal injury or property damage.
Note
To setup and calibrate the instrument, the protection must be None and the Instrument Mode must be Out Of Service. See
Configuration Protection and Instrument Mode at the beginning of this section for information on removing instrument
protection and changing the instrument mode.
If you are operating in burst mode, we recommend that you disable burst before continuing with calibration. Once calibration is
complete, burst mode may then be turned back on.
When the DVC6200 digital valve controller is ordered as part of a control valve assembly, the factory mounts the
digital valve controller and sets up the instrument as specified on the order. When mounting to a valve in the field, the
instrument needs to be set up to match the instrument to the valve and actuator.
Before beginning Basic Setup, be sure the instrument is correctly mounted as described in the Installation section.

.
4. Enter the maximum instrument supply pressure.
After entering the maximum instrument supply pressure, the Setup Wizard prompts you for actuator information.
5. Enter the manufacturer of the actuator on which the instrument is mounted. If the actuator manufacturer is not
listed, select Other.
6. Enter the actuator model or type. If the actuator model is not listed, select Other.
7. Enter the actuator size.
8. Select whether the valve is open or closed under the zero power condition.
9. Specify if a volume booster or quick release valve is present.
10. Specify if factory defaults should be used for Basic Setup. If you select YES for factory default, the Field

the setup parameters listed in the table remain at their previous settings.
