13.1.3 CHARACT -
Select the transfer characteristic between input signal
(position set-point value) and stroke
Characteristic (customer-specific characteristic)
This function can be used to activate a transfer characteristic with respect to set-point value (set-point position)
and valve stroke for correction of the flow-rate or operating characteristic.
The transfer characteristic can be changed via the communications software only.
Factory setting: DIP switch 3 set to OFF (linear)

The switching position of the DIP switches in the positioner has priority over the communications
software, i.e. settings of the correction characteristic (CHARACT) which are modified via the communica-
tions software are only active if DIP switch 3 in the positioner is set to ON.
Characteristics which can be selected via the communications software:
