1.1 Unit Functions and Operation
Features of analog output unit
The analog output unit converts its internal data into analog values to be output to inverters or
other analog-driven equipment.
• Equipped with six types of output ranges (i.e., voltage ranges of -10 to +10, 0 to +10, 0 to +5, and +1 to
+5 and current ranges of 0 to +20 and +4 to +20 mA).
Analog output unit: 4 channels
• A D/A conversion processing speed is as high as 25 μs/channel.
• Converts set digital values into analog data with up to 16 bit in a resolution range of 1/25,000 to
1/62,500.

1.2 Basic Operation of Analog Output Processing
1-3
1.2 Basic Operation of Analog Output Processing
1.2.1 Analog Output Processing
Analog output is processed as explained below.
Operation of analog output unit
(1) Writing digital data
A user program is used to write digital data to the output relay area (WY) on a channel-by-
channel basis so that the digital data will be output in analog form.
(2) Analog conversion processing
Data written to the unit is converted to an analog value in sequence automatically.
(3) Output to analog-driven equipment
Converted analog values are output to inverters or other analog-driven equipment.

option setting functions can be set, if necessary, by writing the function to the unit memory
(UM) by using the configuration menu of the FPWIN GR7 or a user program.
• Offset/Gain processing
• Scale conversion
• Upper and lower output clipping
• Analog output hold while in PROG. mode
