Analog module output

Description
You can expand basic unit 2 with an analog output using the analog module.
The corresponding function block allows every analog value (2 byte/1 word)
in SIMOCODE pro to be output as a 0/4 A - 20 mA signal, for example, on a
connected pointer instrument. By activating the function block via the
"Assigned analog output value" plug with any integer value between 0 and
65535, an equivalent analog signal of 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA will be sent
to the output terminals of the analog module.
Note
The "AM Output" function block can only be used if the analog module (AM)
is connected and configured in the device configuration!
Schematic
The following schematic shows the "AM Output" function block:
