QuickCal Procedure
The MODE button selects a particular function, or mode, and the indicator for the selected mode turns on
steady. Pushing the MODE button saves any new setting of the current mode before switching to the next
mode. The adjust up () and adjust down () buttons are used to make adjustments to current mode.
1. Apply power to the actuator on Connector J2: terminal #1 (neutral), terminal #2 (line), and terminal #3
(earth). There is no need for a signal connection during calibration.
2. Push the MODE button until the yellow “MANUAL/FB POT CAL” LED is illuminated. The LED may be
flashing (at different speeds) through the next several steps. This is expected and will be explained.
3. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to move the actuator and verify that the limit switches are set past the
desired open and closed positions; then move the actuator to mid stroke.
4. If LED is solid, proceed to step 7.
5. If LED is flashing, loosen the gear on the actuator shaft and rotate the potentiometer gear until the LED is
no longer flashing, but on solid - this indicates the center of the potentiometer’s travel. Note that the LED will
flash at a slower rate the farther away from the mid position it gets. Once the LED is on solid tighten all gears.
6. Push the MODE button until the “CLOSE” LED is illuminated. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to drive the
actuator to the desired closed position. Ensure that the close limit switch does not engage.
7. Push the MODE button until the “OPEN” LED is illuminated. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to drive the
actuator to the desired open position. Ensure that the open limit switch does not engage.
8. Please skip to Aux Open/Close Setup if optional Transmitter with Relays is installed; otherwise continue
to the next step.
9. Push the MODE button until the “COMMAND TYPE” LED is illuminated. Use the adjust buttons ( and )
to select appropriate input signal (4-20mA, 1-5VDC, 0-5VDC, 0-10VDC, 2-10VDC or Digital). If 0-5VDC or 0-
10VDC is selected, the LOSS OF COMMAND feature is not available, so proceed to step 12.
10. Push the MODE button until the “LOSS OF COMMAND” LED is illuminated; this sets the actuator to a
predetermined position upon loss of command. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to select appropriate position
(OPEN, CLOSE, or LAST POSITION).
11. Please skip to Aux Position Setup if optional Transmitter, or optional Transmitter with Switches is
installed, otherwise continue to the next step.
12. Push the MODE button until the “AUTO” LED is illuminated. Your calibration is now COMPLETE. Connect
the command signal wires to connector J2: terminal #4 (signal ground) and terminal #5 (mA input) OR
terminal #6 (voltage input), depending on the application. If a signal input was already connected, the actuator
should have moved to that position.
Aux Open/Close Option Setup
1. Push the MODE button until the “AUX CLOSE OUTPUT” LED is illuminated. Use the adjust buttons (
and ) to drive the actuator to the desired auxiliary close position.
2. Push the MODE button until the “AUX OPEN OUTPUT” LED is on. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to
drive the actuator to the desired auxiliary open position.
3. Continue with Step 9 in the Quick Calibration Procedure (see above).
Aux Position Option Setup
1. Push the MODE button until the green “AUX POSITION OUT CAL” LED illuminates while the “CLOSE”
LED flashes.
2. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to set the desired output voltage or current (mA) on the option module
output for the closed position.
3. Push the MODE button so the “AUX POSITION OUT CAL” LED remains steady while the “OPEN” LED
flashes. Use the adjust buttons ( and ) to set the desired output voltage or current (mA) on the option
module output for the open position.
Continue with Step 12 in the Quick Calibration Procedure (see above).
