(Note 1) The full scale (F.S.) on the accuracy of an analog voltage output range from +1 to +5 V and that of an analog current output range from +4 to +20 mA are 0 to +5 V and 0 to +20 mA, respectively.

(Note 2) When a value exceeding the rated value ±2% is set, the output is rounded to a value equivalent to the rated value ±2%.

I/O specifications

  • The Pulse Output Unit uses two connectors. The signal pins for two axes are assigned to one connector.
  • AX1 and 2, and AX3 and 4 connectors have the completely same pin assignments.
    Therefore, the same pin number functions the same.
  • Between the Transistor type and the Line driver type, the output terminal performance is different. However, the specifications of the input terminal and the power supply terminal are the same for both types.
