1. The result of is used if 2 or fewer samples are collected.
Note
2. The input disconnection detection function will operate only when the input's
corresponding conversion prohibit bit is OFF (bits 00 to 07 of DM m). If an
input isn't being used or isn't connected, its Input Disconnect Flag will be
turned ON unless its conversion prohibit bit is turned ON.
3. If a disconnection occurs while the limit warning function is being used, both
the Input Disconnect Flag and the Limit Warning Flag will be turned ON.
4. If a disconnection occurs while the peak hold function is being used, the
peak value will be maintained.
5. The disconnection detection function is valid only when the input signal
range is set at 1 to 5 V/4 to 20 mA.
