(2) Data Type
The analog input value can be handled as the set data type. There are four data types for the analog inputs.
Yes: Supported,
―: Not supported
(3) Minimum and maximum values
The analog input values are stored in data registers. The stored minimum and maximum values are determined by the set signal
type and data type. A parameter setting error occurs when a value is set that exceeds the minimum or maximum value.
The minimum and maximum values that correspond to the signal type and data types are as follows.
Data Type FC6A-J2C1 FC6A-J4A1 FC6A-J8A1 FC6A-J4CN1 FC6A-J8CU1 FC6A-L06A1 FC6A-L03CN1
