Note “EU” stands for Engineering Unit. EU is used as the minimum unit for engineering units such as
°C, m, and g. The size of EU varies according to the input type.
For example, when the input temperature setting range is –200 to +1300
°C, 1 EU is 1°C, and
when the input temperature setting range is –20.0 to +500.0
°C, 1 EU is 0.1°C.
For analog inputs, the size of EU varies according to the decimal point position of the scaling set-
ting, and 1 EU becomes the minimum scaling unit.
