Number of inputs2
Input signal type4 to 20 mA, 0 to 20 mA, 0 to 10 V, -10 to 10 V, 0 to 5 V, -5 to 5 V, 1 to 5 V, 0 to 1.25 V, -1.25 to
1.25 V (separate for each input), and ±10-V user-set range (specified range within -10.000 V to
10.000 V)
ScalingData to be stored in the allocated words in the CIO area must be scaled (Any minimum and maximum
values can be set.) (2 inputs set separately.) Data can be converted at 0% to 100%.
Data storage in the CIO AreaThe value derived from carrying out the following processing in order of the actual process data in
the input range is stored in four digits hexadecimal (binary values) in the allocated words in the CIO
Area.
1) Mean value processing → 2) Scaling → 3) Zero/span adjustment → 4) Square root calculation →

Operation at input
disconnection
For 4 to 20 mA and 1 to 5 V: Stores -15% process value.
For all other ranges: Stores same process value as 0-V or 0-mA inputs.
Input disconnection detection
delay time
Approx. 1 s.
FunctionMean value
processing
(input filter)
Calculates the moving average for the past specified number of process values (1 to 128 can be
specified), and stores that value in the CIO Area as the process value.
Process value alarmProcess value 4-point alarm (LL, L H, HH), hysteresis, and ON-delay timer (0 to 60 s) are available.
Rate-of-change
calculation
Calculates the amount of change per comparison time interval (1 to 16 s).
Rate-of-change
alarm
Rate-of-change 2-point alarm (H, L), alarm hysteresis, and ON-delay timer (0 to 60 s are available,
shared with process value alarm).
Square root
calculation
When the maximum value for process value scaling is A and the minimum value is B,

Drop-out: Output approx. 7% max. linear (output = input) characteristic
Note 1.
The square root function can only be used when the maximum scaling value is greater than the
minimum scaling value. The square root will not be found if the maximum is smaller than the minimum.
Note 2.
When the square root function is used, set the scaling values after square root calculation (e.g., for
flow rates or other values) for the process value scaling A and B settings.
Adjustment period
control
When zero/span adjustment is executed, the date is internally recorded at the Unit. When the preset
zero/span adjustment period and the notice of days remaining set in the Expansion Setting Area have
elapsed, this function turns ON a warning flag to give notice that it is time for readjustment.
Peak and bottom
detection
Detects the maximum (peak) and minimum (bottom) analog input values, from when the Hold Start Bit
(output) allocated to the Expansion Control/Monitor Area turns ON until it turns OFF. These values
are stored as the peak and bottom values in the Expansion Control/Monitor Area.
Top and valley
detection
This function detects the top and valley values for analog inputs, from when the Hold Start Bit
(output) allocated to the Expansion Control/Monitor Area turns ON until it turns OFF. These values
are stored as the top and valley values in the Expansion Control/Monitor Area.
Integral value
calculation
This function calculates the analog input value's time integral. The integral value is calculated and
output to the Expansion Control/Monitor Area when the Integral Value Calculation Start Bit in the
Expansion Control/Monitor Area is turned ON.
IsolationBetween inputs and between inputs and Controller signals: Isolation by transformer and photocoupler.
