(2) Data Type
The analog input value can be handled as the set data type. There are seven data types for the analog inputs.
Yes: Supported,
―: Not supported
(3) Minimum and maximum values
The minimum and maximum values are determined by the set signal type (1) and data type (2).
The value is stored in the data (7) according to the minimum and maximum values.
The minimum and maximum values that correspond to the signal type and data types are as follows.

*1 For only the FC6A-J8A1 and FC6A-J8A4, binary data (12 bits) and optional range (12 bits) are displayed.
*2 Can only be set when the signal type is thermocouple, resistance thermometer or NTC thermistor.
*3 Resistance when using the FC6A-J8CU1/FC6A-J8CU4 and the signal type is set to PTC thermistor or Resistance measurement.
*4 Binary data (16 bits) and optional range (16 bits) can be used with the following versions.
FC6A-J8A1, FC6A-J8A4: Version 200 or later
WindLDR: Version 8.6.0 or later
If an FC6A-J8A1 or FC6A-J8A4 that does not correspond to the above version numbers is set to binary data (16 bits) or optional range (16
bits), an error will occur and the module will operate as binary data (12 bits).

*1 For only the FC6A-J8A1 and FC6A-J8A4, binary data (12 bits) and optional range (12 bits).
*2 The minimum and maximum values can be set only when the data type is set to optional range. Set the minimum and maximum values
between -32,768 and 32,767. However, when the signal type is set to PTC thermistor (threshold), set the minimum and maximum values
between 100 and 10,000. For the arbitrary setting, see
*4
in Chapter 2 "Product Specifications" on page 2-90.
*3 For details on PTC thermistor (threshold), see "PTC Thermistor (Threshold)" on page 9-10.
