Higher resolution: 14 bits Enables move to multi-channel systems and

(previously 12 bits) optimization
Higher resolution: 12 bits → 14 bits (analog input, Up to 8-channel input: Easier transition to multi-channel systems
output) And, with free combination of input/output, systems can be optimized.
Higher precision: ±0.6 % → ±0.2 % (at 25 °C 77 °F)
Achieve high-resolution analog control in
applications such as film winding, tension control, Select among 5 input ranges and 6 output
winding speed control, and other operations.
ranges
Five selectable input settings: ±10 V, ±5 V, 0 to +10 V, 0 to +5 V, 0 to 20 mA
Sixth output setting: ±10 V, ±5 V, 0 to +10 V, 0 to +5 V, 0 to 20 mA, 4 to 20 mA
With ±10 V support it is even possible to control the rotation of motors.

Easy backward compatibility

Use compatibility mode to retain existing ladder programming.
You can use a DIP switch to enable compatibility mode, which allows
operation at 12-bit resolution (using program resources).
