[Design Precautions]
WARNING
Install a safety circuit external to the programmable controller that keeps the entire
system safe even when there are problems with the external power supply or the
programmable controller. Otherwise, trouble could result from erroneous output or
erroneous operation.
(1) The status of analog output changes depending on the setting of various functions
that control the analog output. Take sufficient caution when setting for those
functions.
For details of analog output status, refer to Section 3.4.5 "Combinations of
various functions"
(2) Normal output may not be obtained due to malfunctions of output elements or the
internal circuits. So build an external monitoring circuit that will monitor any single
outputs that could cause serious trouble.
