A pressure differential gauge type of instrument has a
manifold with 2 isolation valves (hp and lp),2 vents(1 each
for hp and lp) and 1 equalizing valve. Determine the
position of each valve(either fully closed or fully open)
when troboulshooting to:

1. zero the transmitter.
2. determine if there is a block in the impulse line.
3. determine if the gauge is functioning properly.

The process fluid is water.
