Analog Input Values
Mapping of analog input values is shown below.
Broken Wire Indication
Broken wire detection is possible for the 4 ... 20 mA range. In this case, a current signal that is less than 1 mA on one of the inputs is detected as a broken wire. The input word of that channel returns the signed value -32,768. A broken wire indication has the following binary format:
