SLC™ 500 4-Channel Analog I/O Modules 5
Publication 1746-IN008C-EN-P - May 2004
Analog Modules Operation
The module converts analog input signals to 16-bit binary values for storage in the
SLC processor’s input image table. The decimal range, number of significant bits,
and converter resolution depend on the input range that you use for the channel.
