DC (resolution: 5mV), or 0 to 20mA (resolution: 20µA) maybe selected independently for each channel. Data transfer between the LX3V-4DA and the LX3V main unit is by buffer memory exchange. There are 32 buffer memories (each of 16 bits) in the LX3V-4DA.
*3: If electrical noise or a voltage ripple exists at the output, connect a smoothing capacitor of 0.1 to 0.47uF, 25V. *4: Connect the terminal on the LX3V-4DA with the terminal on the MPU of the programmable controller. *5: Shorting the voltage output terminal or connecting the current output load to the voltage output terminal may damage the LX3V-4DA.

4 digit hexadecimal number. The first digit will be the command for channel1 (CH1), and the second digit for channel 2 (CH2) etc. The numeric values of these four digits respectively represent the following items: WECON Technology Co., Ltd.

Offset/gain setting command: Changes offset and gain values of channels CH1 through CH4 by writing 1 to the corresponding Hex digits of BFM #8 or #9. The current values will be valid until this command is output. WECON Technology Co., Ltd.

Note: BFM #’s marked E/ (E). Values of BFM #0, #5, and #21, (marked E) are stored in EEPROM memory of the LX3V-4DA. BFM #10 to #17 are copied to EEPROM when the gain/offset setting command BFM #8, #9 is used. Also, BFM #20 causes resetting of the EEPROM memory.

Data register D3→ BFM #4 (output to CH4) Operation procedure 1) Turn off the power of the MPU, and then connect the LX3V-4DA. After that, wire the I/O lines of the LX3V-4DA. 2) Set the MPU to STOP, and turn on the power. Write the above program then switch the MPU to RUN.
LX3V-4DA module 6. Caution regarding operation 1) Check whether the output wiring and/or expansion cables are properly connected on LX3V-4DA analog special function block. 2) Check that the LX3V system configuration rules have not been broken, i.e. the number of blocks does not exceed 8 and the total system I/O is equal or less than 256 I/O.Ž...

An example program for adjustment is shown below. The example shows that for channel CH2 of LX3V-4DA block No.1, the offset value is changed to 7 mA, and the gain value to 20 mA. Note that for CH1, CH3, and CH4.
When X010 and X011 are off, transfer will not be executed, therefore the destination data value will not be changed. 9. Troubleshooting If the LX3V-4DA does not operate properly, check the following items: 1) Check the external wiring. Refer to section 3 of this manual. WECON Technology Co., Ltd.

5) Check that the external load resistance connected to each analog output terminal does not exceed the capacity of the LX3V-4DA drive (voltage output: 2kΩ to 1 MΩ / current output: 500Ω).‘ 6) Check the output voltage or current value using a voltmeter or ammeter, and confirm that the output meets the I/O characteristics.
