Basic Function Principles
The analog output terminals
• KL4414 and KL4418 generate signals in the range 0 mA to 20 mA
• KL4424 and KL4428 generate signals in the range 4 mA to 20 mA
with a resolution of 12 bits (4095 increments). The actuators are supplied via the voltage fed from the power
contacts. The power contacts can optionally be supplied via the standard supply or via a power feed terminal
with electrical isolation.
Format of the output values
In the delivery state the process data are shown in two's complement form (integer -1 corresponds to
0xFFFF). The feature register R32 can be used to select other display options (e.g. signed amount
representation, Siemens format).

Process data equations
The process data, which are transferred to the Bus Terminal, are calculated based on the following
