Analog Value Processing
10.8.1 Connecting Loads to Analog Output Modules
When loads are connected to analog output modules, the voltage is measured directly across the
load via high-resistance sensing lines (S+/S -). The output voltage is then corrected so that the
load voltage is not falsified by voltage drops on the lines.
In this way it is possible to compensate voltage drops of up to 3 V per line.
Figure 10-27 shows the design of this circuit.
