Wiring and Piping General This section describes the air piping and electric wiring connections. Cut off all inputs to the valve actuator and other accessories of the valve WARNING and actuator, including the air supply and electric signal before making or modifying the piping and wiring connections.
Page 68: Piping
FVP 110 Fieldbus Valve Positioner Manual Piping Air Supply For stable operation of the FVP110 over a long term, a clean and dry supply of air needs to be maintained. Be careful about the following: ❑ To prevent moisture, oil, and dust from being led into the FVP110 through pipes, give careful consideration to the choice of the air supply system and supply air suction point as well as installation of the air supply header and air supply piping.
Page 69: Pneumatic Piping Port
Pneumatic Piping To connect pneumatic piping: 1. Connect the air supply pipe to the SUP port of the FVP110, and the output pressure pipe to the OUT1 port. The FVP110 has two air supply ports (SUP): one at the rear CAUTION and the other on the side.
Page 70: Wiring
Read “Installation and Operating Precautions for JIS Flameproof Equipment” prior to the work. Recommended Cables For wiring for a FVP110: ❑ Use a cable for H1 fieldbus segments specified by the Fieldbus FOUNDATION™. A shielded cable is recommended. For the details of cables required for H1 fieldbus segments, see Fieldbus Technical Information (TI 38K3A01-01).

Page 76: Set Basic Parameters
When a power failure or serious hardware damage is detected, the FVP110 cuts the current signal being fed to the I/P module to zero, moving the valve to the safe side. The action of the FVP110 on occurrence of a communication error can be predefined by AO block’s parameters;...
Page 77: Carrying Out Tuning
❑ Adjusts the parameter settings for controlling the valve. Auto Tuning in FVP110 sets the 0% point at the position where the valve is fully closed and 100% point at the position where the valve stem stops against the mechanical stopper (fully open).
Page 78 The values of the hysteresis of valve actions and the air supply pressure measured during auto tuning are stored in parameters of the FVP110. transducer block. The pressure data such as air supply pressure data are available only for a FVP110 with an optional pressure sensor.
Page 79: Travel Calibration
Setup Travel Calibration Normally, control parameters need not be readjusted after auto tuning. If there is a problem, see “Troubleshooting” on page 175. To carry out fine adjustments of the zero-point and span settings, perform the travel calibration. Travel Calibration If the full stroke of the valve is too large for the maximum required flow rate, you can change the span of the travel by carrying out a travel calibration: 1.

Disconnect the relevant control loop from the bus if necessary. Integration of DD If the host supports DD (Device Description), install the DD of the FVP110. Check if the host has the following directory under its default DD directory: 594543/0001 594543/0007 (/EE) (594543 is the manufacturer number of GE Masoneilan, and 0001 or 0007 is the FVP110 device number, respectively.)

VCR Setting Set VCR (Virtual Communication Relationship), which specifies the called party for communication and resources. FVP110 has 29 VCRs whose application can be changed, except for the first VCR, which is used for management. Change parameters together for each VCR, as modification for each parameter can cause inconsistent operation.

Set the parameter for the VFD function block. Link Object Link object combines the data voluntarily sent by the function block with VCR. FVP110 has 25 non-factory set link objects. A single link object specifies one combination. Each link object has the parameters listed in Table 15. Change parameters together for each VCR, as modifications made to each parameter can cause inconsistent operation.
Page 113: Trend Object
Trend Object You can set the parameter so that the function block automatically transmits Trend. FVP110 has seven non-factory set Trend objects, five for analog data, and two for discrete data. A single Trend object specifies the trend of one parameter.

FVP 110 Fieldbus Valve Positioner Manual Alarm Generation When the FVP110 detects an abnormality in the device using the self-diagnostic function, a device alarm is issued from the resource or transducer block. An abnormality in a function block or in a process value is issued from the corresponding block as a block error or process alarm.

Page 275: Description Of Control Parameters
Description of Control Parameters Description of Control Parameters The FVP110's basic method of controlling the valve position is PI-D control. This control is characterized by the fact that a rapid output change is prevented by the derivative term of D being added to the feedback.
Page 276: Servo_Rate
GE Energy FVP 110 Fieldbus Valve Positioner Manual SERVO_RATE Tuning range: 0, 0.05 to 1.0 sec (Default: 0.22 sec) Set the derivative time of PI-D control. The derivative term relates to the feedback and prevents a rapid output change, and the preventive effect increases in proportion to the derivative time.
Page 277: Servo_Offset
Manual Tuning Guideline SERVO_OFFSET SERVO_OFFSET Tuning range: 0 to 100% of MV (Default: 55%) Set the initial value for the electric current that is output from the CPU to the I/P module after the power is turned on. The value simultaneously serves as the base point for an integration operation.
