3.3.7. Object 6110h: AI Sensor Type
This object reflects the type of signal that is being applied to the input.
For inputs AI 1 to AI 8, the following values are allowed for this object
Sensor Type 40 = voltage input, value range 0 to 5000 mV
Sensor Type 60 = frequency input, value range 0 to 10000 Hz
Sensor Type 10000 = PWM duty cycle input, value range 0 to 10000 (0 to 100.00%)
Sensor Type 10001 = 16-bit counter input, value range 1 to 65535 pulses
Only the mentioned sensor types are supported. Writing a value other than those listed
above will result in SDO abort download error, and the previous value will remain
unchanged. The default value is 40, voltage input.
