Notices on analog specifications
Beckhoff I/O devices (terminals, box modules, modules) with analog inputs and outputs are characterized by a number of technical characteristic data; refer to the technical data in the respective documents.
Some explanations are given below for the correct interpretation of these characteristic data.
Unless otherwise stated, the explanations apply accordingly to input and output signals.
