INPUT-OUTPUT RELATION EXAMPLES

• FS
-FS stands for 0 % of the input range configured by ITEM 06. +FS stands for +100 % of the input range, configured by ITEM 07.

• OVF
When one of the following conditions is true, the digital output overflows (OVF).
 1) When the input signal is out of the range between -FS and +FS.
 2) When the display value (= output signal) exceeds the display range.
 The display range differs according to output code. For example, in case of BCD with polarity, it is -9999 to 9999. Please refer to the instruction manual for detail.
