3 * The LX3V-4AD special module has four input channels. The input channels receive analog signals and convert them into a digital value. This is called an A/D conversion; the maximum resolution is 16 bits.
4 * The selection of voltage or current based input/output is by user wiring. Analog ranges of -10 to 10V DC (resolution: 5mV), and/or 4 to 20mA, -20 to 20mA (resolution: 20µA) may be selected.
5 * Data transfer between the LX3V-4AD and the LX3V main unit is by buffer memory exchange. There are 32 buffer memories (each of 16 bits) in the LX3V-4AD.
6 * LX3V-4AD consumes 5V voltage from LX3V main unit or active extension unit, 90mA current of power supply.

117 1. The analog input is received through a twisted pair shielded cable. This cable should be wired separately from power lines or any other lines which may induce electrical noise.
118 1. If a voltage ripple occurs during input, or there is electrically induced noise on the external wiring, connect a smoothing capacitor of 0.1 to 0.47µF, 25V.
119 1. If you are using current input, connect the V+ and I+ terminals to each other.

283 **Analog to Digital Conversion Speed Change**
284
285 By writing 0, 1 or decimal numbers between 10-16 into BFM#15 of the LX3V-4AD, the time at which A/D conversion is performed can be changed.
286
287 However, the following points should be noted:
288
289 1. To maintain a high-speed conversion, please use the FROM/TO commands as seldom as possible.
290 1. When a conversion speed change occurs, BFM #1-#4 are set to their default values immediately after the change. Please be careful if an A/D time conversion will be part of the normal program execution.
291 1. High-speed time conversion is usually used with BFM#1-#4.
292 1. BFM#15 is configurated with the corresponding conversion time of 10-16, only supported by software version 20000 or above.
293
294 **Adjusting Gain and Offset values**
295
296 **Formula for Gain/Offset: Digital output= (Analog input-Offset)*Constant/ (Gain-Offset)**
297
298 * When buffer memory BFM #20 is activated by setting it to K1, all settings within the analog special function block are reset to their default settings. This is a very quick method to erase any undesired gain and offset adjustments.
299 * If (b1, b0) of BFM #21 is set to (1, 0), gain and offset adjustments are prohibited to prevent inadvertent changes by the operator. In order to adjust the gain and offset values, bits (b1, b0) must be set to (0, 1). The default is (0, 1).
300 * Gain and offset values of BFM #23 and #24 are sent to non-volatile memory gain and offset registers of the specified input channels. Input channels to be adjusted are specified by the appropriate G-O (gain-offset) bits of BFM #22.
301 * (((
302 Example:
303
304 If bits G1 and O1 are set to 1, input channel 1 will be adjusted when BFM #22 is written to by a TO instruction.
305 )))
306 * Channels can be adjusted individually or together with the same gain and offset values.
307 * Gain and offset values in BFM #23 #24 are in units of mV or µA. Due to the resolution of the unit the actual response will be in steps of 5mV or 20µA.
308 * When gain is less than or equal to offset, error will be adjusted. Gain and offset will not change. Error status will be given at BFM#29 b1. B4-b7 will give a specific channel offset/gain error.
309
310 Example:
311
312 If bits G1 and O1 are set to 1, input channel 1 will be adjusted when BFM #22 is written to by a TO instruction.
313
314 * Channels can be adjusted individually or together with the same gain and offset values.

335 **Identification Code BFM #30**
336
337 The identification (or ID) code number for a Special Function Block is read using the FROM command.
338
339 This number for the LX3V-4AD unit is K2011 or K2010.
340
341 The user’s program in the PC can use this facility in the program to identify the special function block before commencing data transfer from and to the special function block.
342
343 **✎Note: **
344
345 * Values of BFM #0, #23 and #24 are copied to EEPROM memory of the LX3V-4AD. BFM #21 and BFM #22 are only copied when data is written to the gain/offset command buffer BFM #22. Also, BFM #20 causes writing to the EEPROM memory. The EEPROM has a life of about 10,000 cycles (changes), so do not use programs which frequently change these BFMs.
346
347 * Because of the time needed to write to the EEPROM memory, a delay of 300 ms is required between instructions that cause a write to the EEPROM. Therefore, a delay timer should be used before writing to the EEPROM a second time.

350
351 Gain determines the angle or slope of the calibration line, identified at a digital value of 1000.
352
353 * (a) Small gain: Large steps in digital readings
354 * (b) Zero gain: Default is 5V or 20mA.
355 * (c) Large gain: Small steps in digital readings.
356
357 Offset is the “Position” of the calibrated line, identified at a digital value of 0.
358
359 * (d) Negative offset.
360 * (e) Zero offset: Default is 0V or 4mA.
361 * (f) Positive offset.

365
366 Offset and gain can be set independently or together. Reasonable offset ranges are -5 to +5V or -20mA to 20mA, and gain values 1V to 15V or 4mA to 32mA. Gain and offset can be adjusted by software in the LX3V main unit (please refer to program example 2).
367
368 * Bit device’s b1, b0 of the gain/offset BFM #21 should be set to 0, 1 to allow adjustment.
369 * Once adjustment is complete these bit devices should be set to 1, 0 to prohibit any further changes.
370 * Channel initialization (BFM #0) should be set to the nearest range, i. e. voltage/current etc.

374 **Basic program**
375
376 In the following example channels CH1 and CH2 are used as voltage inputs. The LX3V-4AD block is connected at the position of special function block No.0. Averaging is set at 4 and data registers D0 and D1 of the PC receive the averaged digital data. The FROM code for the special function block at position “0" is read from BFM #30 of that block and stored at D4 in the main unit. CMP is compared to check the block is a LX3V-4AD, if OK M1 is turned ON.

380 **✎Note: **
381
382 1. TO code: The analog input channels (CH1, CH2) are setup by writing H3300 to BFM #0 of the LX3V-4AD
383 1. The number of averaged samples for CH1 and CH2 is set to 4 by writing 4 to BFM #1 and #2 respectively.
384 1. The operational status of the LX3V-4AD is read from BFM #29 and output as bit devices at the LX3V main unit. If there are no errors in the operation of the LX3V-4AD, then the averaged data BFM’s are read.
385 1. In the case of this example BFM #5 and #6 are read into the LX3V main unit and stored at D0 and D1. These devices contain the averaged data for CH1 and CH2 respectively.
386
387 **Using gain and offset in a program**
388
389 The gain and offset of the LX3V-4AD can be adjusted using push-button switches on the input terminal of the PC. It can also be adjusted using software settings sent from the PC.
390
391 Only the gain and offset values in the memory of the LX3V-4AD need be adjusted. A voltmeter or an ammeter for the analog input is not needed. A program for the PC will be needed however.
392
393 The following is an example of changing the offset value on input channel CH1 to 0V and the gain value to 2.5V.
394
395 The LX3V-4AD block is in the position of block No.0 (i.e. closest to the LX3V main unit).

429 **Preliminary checks**
430
431 1. Check whether the input wiring and/or extension cables are properly connected on LX3V-4AD analog special function block.
432 1. Check that the LX3V system configuration rules have not been broken, i.e. the number of special function blocks does not exceed 8 and the total system I/O is equal or less than 256 I/O.
433 1. Ensure that the correct operating range has been selected for the application.
434 1. Check that there is no power overload on either the 5V or 24V power sources, remember the loading on a LX3V main unit or a powered extension unit varies according to the number of extension blocks or special function blocks connected.
435 1. Put the LX3V main unit into RUN.
436
437 **Error checking**
438
439 If the LX3V-4AD special function block does not seem to operate normally, check the following items.
440
441 Check the status of the POWER LED.
442
443 Lit: The extension cable is properly connected.
444
445 Otherwise: Check the connection of the extension cable.
446
447 * Check the external wiring.
448 * Check the status of the “24V” LED (top right corner of the LX3V-4AD).
449
450 Lit: LX3V-4AD is OK; 24V DC power source is OK.
451
452 Otherwise: Possible 24VDC power failure, if OK possible LX3V-4AD failure.
453
454 * Check the status of the “A/D” LED (top right corner of the LX3V-4AD).
455
456 Lit: A/D conversion is proceeding normally.
457
458 Otherwise: Check buffer memory #29 (error status). If any bits (b2 and b3) are ON, then this is why the A/D LED is OFF.
