1.
Before Using the Product
This chapter provides information you should know before using the product.
About the Module
The DAI16-4(FIT)GY can control an external device by converting digital data into analog voltage or
current signals.
This product can connect to F&eIT Series controller module <CPU-CAxx(FIT)GY,
CPU-SBxx(FIT)GY ) etc.> and construct the system.
The insulation between external signals and the Controller Module permits the use of the Controller
Module without compromising the communications features of the latter. Please read this manual
carefully to create application programs and configure the system, such as setting the switches and
connecting it to external devices.
Features
- Analog output module providing high precision at a resolution of 16 bits.
- The output range is common to different channels, and can be selected from two output ranges:
±10V, and 0 - 20mA.
- A rotary switch allows you to set device IDs to help you keep track of device numbers.
- Flanged two-piece connector used to prevent disconnection from the connector on the controller
module.
- Similar to other F&eIT series products, the system, in the module itself, incorporates a 35-mm DIN
rail mounting mechanism as a standard item. A connection to a controller module can be effected on
a lateral, stack basis in a unique configuration, which permits a simple, smart system configuration
without the need for a backplane board.

Setting a Device ID
The controller module distinguishes and keeps track of the modules that are connected to it by assigning
device IDs to them. Each module, therefore, should be assigned a unique ID.
A Device ID can be assigned in a 0 - 7 range, so that a maximum of eight modules can be distinguished.
Setup Method
A device ID can be set by turning the rotary switch on the device face.
To set a device ID, turn the switch knob.

Figure 3.4. Connecting a Voltage Output (Coaxial Cable)
CAUTION
- When the power is turned on or the module is reset, the voltage output signal will be 0V.
- To avoid any malfunction, the voltage output signal should not be connected to the analog ground.
- To avoid any malfunction, the voltage output signal should not be connected to another analog
output signal or the output signal of an external device.
- To avoid any malfunction, the connector plug should not be attached or detached when the power for
the module or the external device is on.
- The maximum current capacity for a voltage output signal is ±5mA. To avoid any malfunction, do
not connect an external device that generates a load exceeding this range.
- In situations where the connecting cable is subject to the effects of noise, the accurate voltage output
can fail. The connecting cable should be installed away from any source of noise.
- In situations where the connecting cable is excessively long, the accurate voltage output can fail.
Use a cable that is as short as possible.
-
Because the D/A converter in the module does not contain a built-in deglitcher, a glitch can
sometimes occur.

DAI16-4(FIT)GY
Connecting a Current Output
Example of Connecting a Negative Load Resistor
Two types of connection methods can be employed: fixed load and floating load. If the module is used
as a load resistance, multiple current loops can be implemented by using the same power supply. The
use of current output requires an external power supply (22 - 24V). In such a case, a power supply with
a small ripple should be used in order to avoid an adverse impact on the conversion accuracy due to a
large power supply ripple.
The load resistance R
L
that is connected to the current output of each channel should be less than 400,
including the wire resistance.
Example of Connecting with a Flat Cable
Use a flat cable to connect the voltage output and the analog ground of each channel to the load
resistance R
L.

Example of Connecting with a Coaxial Cable
A coaxial cable can be used in situations where the module is at a relatively large distance from the

output and the analog ground for each channel are connected to the load resistance R
L
of the external
device by using the core wire and the shield braid of the coaxial cable.
Figure 3.7. Connecting to a Floating Load (Coaxial Cable)
Figure 3.8. Connecting to a Fixed Load (Coaxial Cable)
CAUTION
- When the power is turned on or the module is reset, the current output signal will be 10 mA.
If there is a problem with the current value output when the power is turned on, provide the module
with an external relay.
- To avoid any malfunction, the current output signal should not be connected to the analog ground.
- To avoid any malfunction, the current output signal should not be connected to another analog
output signal or the output signal of an external device.
- To avoid any malfunction, the connector plug should not be attached or detached when the power for
the module or the external device is on.
- In situations where the connecting cable is subject to the effects of noise, the accurate current output
can fail. The connecting cable should be installed away from any source of noise.
