Serial Communications Board Section 8-6
Analog Outputs
Note 1. Different terminals are used for each output, allowing output signal ranges
to be selected for each output.
2. The D/A conversion time is the time taken to convert the data in the CPU
Unit and output it. At least one cycle is required to transfer the data from
the CPU Unit to the Analog I/O Board.
3. The overall precision is the precision with respect to full scale.
