NOTES FOR ANALOG EXPANSION UNITS:
1. * Total input system transfer time = Sample repetition time x 2 + 1 scan time
2. ** The 12-bit data (0 to 4095) processed in the analog I/O module can be linear-converted to a value between -32768 and 32767. Select the
optional range designations and analog I/O data minimum and maximum values by using data registers allocated to analog I/O modules.
3. # When an error is detected, a corresponding error code is sorted to a data register allocated to analog I/O operating status.
