• Check the version number of FX
3UC-32MT-LT. The version number should be 1.20 or later.

6.2 Wiring Check
Check the following items for wiring:
1. Power
4AD-ADP needs driving power. Verify that the power supply line is properly connected. Also check that the
POWER indicator lamp of 4AD-ADP is on.
2. Analog input line
Use the 2-core twisted shielded pair cable for the analog input line. In addition, be sure to separate the analog
input line from the other motive power lines or inductive lines.
3. Use of current input mode
To use the current input mode for a channel, be sure to shortcircuit the line between the V+ terminal and the
I+ terminal ( : channel number) of the channel. If the line is not shortcircuited, data will not be converted
into correct digital data.
