➀
Provides direct compatibility with the 1746-NI4 module.
➁
For user-defined scale A (or B ), the data in output words 4 and 5 (or 6 and 7) determine
the count limits. See the next subsection,
Setting The User-Defined Scale Limits, for
information on the User-Defined Scale data format .
➂
Note: Modules marked Series B Revision 1.00 or earlier had different signal limits for the
Scaled for PID data format (see the Owner’s Guide that came with your module).
