Description
The abbreviation for MELSEC iQ-R series high speed analog-digital converter module
A memory in an intelligent function module for storing data (such as setting values and monitored values) to be
transferred to the CPU module
Another term for GX Works3
A generic term for analog input ranges of 0 to 10V, 0 to 5V, 1 to 5V, -10 to 10V, 0 to 20mA, 4 to 20mA, 1 to 5V (extended
mode), and 4 to 20mA (extended mode). In the window on the engineering tool, 4 to 20mA (extended mode) and 1 to 5V
(extended mode) are displayed as follows:
• 4 to 20mA (Extension)
• 1 to 5V (Extension)
A label that is valid for all the program data when multiple program data are created in the project. The global label has
two types: a module specific label (module label), which is generated automatically by GX Works3, and an optional label,
which can be created for any specified device.
The product name of the software package for the MELSEC programmable controllers
A label that represents one of memory areas (I/O signals and buffer memory areas) specific to each module in a given
character string. For the module used, GX Works3 automatically generates this label, which can be used as a global
label.
The mode for normal A/D conversion. Use one of the three types of modes, the normal mode (high speed: 1s/CH),
normal mode (medium speed: 10s/CH), and normal mode (low speed: 20s/CH).
The mode for the offset/gain setting
The abbreviation for the RJ72GF15-T2 CC-Link IE Field Network remote head module
An analog input range where any value can be set. This range can be set in the offset/gain setting.
An error that occurs if the internal processing of the A/D converter module is abnormal. Watchdog timer enables the
module to monitor its own internal processing.
