Note
Only the activated digital signals are considered when counting the number of licensed
signals, hence no additional signal for the source word.
ibaBM-PN only acquires one analog value, which is then decoded by ibaPDA. Thus, the
range of analog values is used in ibaBM-PN for acquiring large amounts of digital sig-
nals.
