This chapter describes the configuration of the analog I/O modules, as well as their parameters, device allocations, and WindLDR

configuration methods.

This section provides an overview of the analog I/O modules and describes their types and the maximum number of modules that

can be connected to the CPU module.

Analog I/O modules are available that allow the FC6A Series MICROSmart to directly handle analog data such as voltage, current,

and temperature. There are ten types of analog I/O modules that differ by the number of analog inputs and outputs and the

operation mode. These analog I/O modules can be used by connecting them to the right side of the CPU module. Analog I/O

module inputs support voltage, current, thermocouples, resistance thermometers, and thermistors. Analog I/O module outputs

support voltage and current.

To use an analog I/O module, it must be configured in the Module Configuration Editor. For detailed configuration methods, see

"Module Configuration Editor" on page 12-1. For details on the analog I/O module parameter settings, see "Analog I/O Module

Parameter Settings" on page 9-3.
