1.Introduction

The FX2NC-4DA analog output block (hereafter referred to as "FX2NC-4DA") converts 4 digital values (from the PLC main unit) into analog output values (voltage or current).

The FX2NC-4DA can be connected to the FX2NC Series PLC.

1)Each analog output channel can be configured for voltage output, or current output. The output mode must be set using the TO instruction and the appropriate connection method.

A different analog output can be selected for each channel.

2)The voltage output ranges from -10 to 10 V. The current output ranges from 4 to 20 mA and from 0 to 20 mA. The output characteristics can be adjusted for each channel.

3)The resolution is 5 mV (10 V 1/2000) when the voltage output is used, 20 A (20 mA 1/1000) when the current output is used.

4)Data transfer with the PLC is performed via the buffer memories of the FX2NC-4DA by FROM/TO instructions.

Then, push the slide lock downward to fix the FX2NC-4DA. When connecting two or more FX2NC-4DA units, connect an FX2NC-4DA unit to another FX2NC-4DA unit in the same way.

Up to four special function blocks or special function units in total can be connected to the FX2NC Series PLC including those connected to the FX2NC- CNV-IF. For each connected special function block or special function unit, the unit number is assigned starting with 0 for the special function block and special function unit nearest to the main unit. From the main unit, use the FROM/TO instructions to read or write data stored in the FX2NC-4DA.

4.Wiring

*2 Ground the shielded cable at one point on the signal receiving side. (Grounding resistance 100or less)

*3 If the output contains noise and ripple, connect a capacitor of approximately 0.1 to 0.47F, 25 V.

*4 Do not short-circuit the voltage output terminal. Do not connect a load for the current output to the voltage output terminal.

*5 Do not wire the " " terminal.

Mixed outputs (voltage output and current output) in the same channel are not allowed.

Terminal connector handling

The FX2NC-4DA is equipped with a terminal connector whose from is equivalent to that of the terminal connector type FX2NC PLC.

For the specifications of the suggested screwdriver, the dimensions of the cable terminal, the external dimensions of the bar terminal equipped with insulating sleeve, and applicable wiring, refer to the FX2NC Handy Manual.
