4.27.3 Output Ranges of the Analog Output Module SM 332;
AO 4 x 16 bits
Connecting the analog outputs
You can connect the outputs as voltage or current outputs, or disable them. You
perform connection of the outputs with the “output type” parameter in STEP 7.
Unused Channels
So that unused output channels of the SM 332; AO 4 x 16 bits remain
de-energized, you must set the “output type” parameter to “disabled” and leave the
terminal open.
Output ranges
You program the output ranges for voltage and current outputs in STEP 7.

Default Settings
The default settings of the module are “Voltage” for the output type and “" 10 V”
for the output range. You can use this combination of output type and output range
without parameterizing the SM 332; AO 4 x 16 bits in STEP 7.
Substitute values
You can configure the SM 332; AO 4 x 16 bits for the CPU operating mode STOP
as follows: Outputs De-energized, Hold Last Value or Inject Substitute Values. If
you inject substitute values, they must be within the output range.
