Analog value representation for measuring ranges with SIMATIC S7
Analog value representation
The digitized analog value is the same for input and output values with the same nominal range.
Analog values are represented in two's complement.
The following table shows the analog value representation of the analog electronic modules.

Bit number
Pulse value of the bits
Sign
The sign of the analog value is always in bit number 15:
• "0" → +
• "1" → -
