Analog Inputs
Make sure the power box is switched off before you make any I/O connections.
Analog Inputs 1 through 4 allow you to receive data from sensors which produce an
analog output, as when measuring conditions such as temperature, noise and light.
In addition, analog inputs can measure DC voltages which are applied to the inputs.
The analog inputs have 8-bit resolution and an input voltage of 0-10V.
Do not connect voltage exceeding +10VDC to the analog inputs.
The analog inputs are read by software commands.
Figure 8 is a basic diagram of an analog to digital converter.
It is strongly recommended that analog inputs which are not in use be connected to
ground, in order to reduce electrical noise interference.
