SW1 -  Sets the input digital terminals S1-S7 for Sink (NPN) or Source (PNP) logic. 
SW2 - Sets the analog input terminal AIN for voltage (V) or current (I).
SW3 – Sets the analog input terminal AI2 (Ver. 1.3 or later) or the multifunctional terminal S6/AI2 (prior to Ver.1.3) for voltage (V) or current (I). 
Please refer to General Wiring Diagrams 5.0 and 6.0 for further information.

10.3 Control Terminal Wiring and Connections (Terminal TM2) 
 
Control wiring is connected to terminal TM2. Select the proper wire and rating in accordance with the following: 
 
  Use copper wire only. The proper wire diameter should be based on ratings at +105
°
C.  
  AWG #18 is recommended.  
  To minimize EMI (electromagnetic interference), route control cables at least 12 in. from any power cables. 
Do not run control wiring in the same conduit with power and motor wiring.  
  Depending on signal levels, shielded - twisted pair wiring is recommended as shown in the Fig. below.   
  For nominal values of input / output signals, follow the requirements of class 2 wiring
