Each analog output channel can be configured for either unipolar or bipolar output. A unipolar
configuration has a range of 0 to V

output circuitry and can either be the 10 V onboard reference or an externally supplied reference
between -10 V and +10 V. Both channels need not be configured the same way; however, at the
factory both channels are configured for bipolar output.
Bipolar Output Selection (Factory Setting)
You select the bipolar output configuration for each analog output channel by setting the following
jumpers:
Analog Output Channel 0:
