Chapter  5  Analog Input/Output Module AS06XA 
5- 17 
  Analog Output 
Item  Function  Description 
1 
Enable/Disable a 
Channel 
1. Enable or disable a channel. 
2. If a channel is disabled, the total conversion time decreases. 
2  Calibration  Calibrate a linear curve. 
3 
Retain an Output 
When a module stops running, the system retains the signal sent by the 
module. 
4 
Refresh Time for an 
Output   
Refresh the analog output value according to the value of the fixed slope. 
5  Scale Range  You can set the scale range when the format is floating-point. 
1. Enable/Disable a Channel 
An analog signal is converted into a digital signal at a rate of 2 ms per channel. The total conversion time 
is 2 ms X (the number of channels). If a channel is not used, you can disable it to decrease the total 
conversion time. 
2. Calibration 
To make a curve meet specific needs, calibrate the curve by changing the offset and the gain. The calibration 
range depends on the range of inputs which can be received by the hardware. The formula is: 
 
Example:   
A channel receives voltage inputs between -10.0 V to +10.0 V. The gain is 1000, and the offset is 0. The 
corresponding value for the original signal -10.0 V to +10.0 V is -32000 to +32000. If you change the offset to 
200 and the gain to 1000, the calibrated value for the original signal -10.0 V to +10.0 V is -31800 to +32200.
