PC-Tool User Manual

for NV/NVF Series Actuators

Meaning of the settings

Control signal Y Type of control

Sensitivity Response sensitivity and reversal hysteresis of the

control function

Feedback U5 Type of feedback signal

Range Position range within the mechanical

limits

Running time Time needed to pass through the position range

Stroke Programmed stroke range: Max / Mid / Min

Direction of rotation Clockwise/counterclockwise (for full-rotation actuators)

Direction of stroke Plot of stroke direction to the positioning signal: Direct / inverted

(in acc. with switch S3.1)

Switching point Top / bottom (in acc. with switch S3.2)

Actuating force In percent of the maximum positioning force

Behavior in the event of bus

failure

Behavior when communication fails

Firmware Software version on the actuator

Config table ID Identification of the configuration table

Operating time Number of hours during which the actuator was

connected to the power supply

Active time Number of hours during which the actuator was mechanically in

motion and connected to the power supply

Stop & Go ratio Ratio of active time/operating time in percent. A high Stop & Go

ratio indicates an unstable control.

Running time, range, direction of rotation and stroke are not displayed on certain actuators.

2.2 Adaptation

In the adaptation, the actuator determines the range 0% ... 100% by approaching the

mechanical limits.

Click the "Adaptation" button on the Service tab.

Variant You can also trigger the adaptation directly on the actuator. To do this, you have to remove the

cover from the actuator. To trigger the adaptation, press the S2 button on the electronic PCB.
