The equivalent decimal value of the binary number is obtained by subtracting the value of the far left position, 32768, from the sum of the values of the other positions.

    Glossary The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout this manual. For definitions of terms not listed here refer to Allen-Bradley’s Industrial Automation Glossary, Publication AG-7.1. A/D Converter– Refers to the analog to digital converter inherent to the module. The converter produces a digital value whose magnitude is proportional to the magnitude of an analog input signal.
  • Page 174 configuration word – Contains the channel configuration information needed by the module to configure and operate each channel. D/A Converter– Refers to the digital to analog converter inherent to the output module. The converter produces an analog dc voltage or current signal whose instantaneous magnitude is proportional to the magnitude of a digital value.
  • Page 175 LSB – (Least Significant Bit) The bit that represents the smallest value within a string of bits. For analog modules, 16-bit, two’s complement binary codes are used in the I/O image in the card. For analog inputs, the LSB is defined as the rightmost bit, bit 0, of the 16-bit field.
  • Page 176 overall accuracy – The worst-case deviation of the output voltage or current from the ideal over the full output range is the overall accuracy. For inputs, the worst-case deviation of the digital representation of the input signal from the ideal over the full input range is the overall accuracy. this is expressed in percent of full scale.
