1 BFM #0, #1: Input mode selection
The input mode by writing a numeric value to BFM #0 and BFM#1 to assign CH1 to CH4 operation mode to BFM#0.
In the input mode specification, each BFM is expressed in a 4-digit hexadecimal code, and each channel No. is
assigned to each digit.

O=0: Voltage input mode (-10 to +10V), resolution (20V x 1/32,000)
O=1: Voltage input mode (-10 to +10V), resolution (20V x 1/8,000)
O=2: Voltage input mode, analog value direct display (-10,000 to +10,000), resolution (20V x 1/20,000)
O=3: Current input mode (4 to 20mA), resolution (16mAx 1/8,000)
O=4: Current input mode (4 to 20mA), resolution (16mAx 1/4,000)
O=5: Current input mode, analog value direct display (4,000 to 20,000), resolution 2.00 μA
O=6: Current input mode (-20 to 20mA), resolution (40mAx 1/16,000)
O=7: Current input mode (-20 to 20mA), resolution (40mAx 1/8,000)

2 BFM #2 TO BFM #5: Number of times of averaging
When using BFM #10 to #13 as the average data, write the number of times of averaging to BFM #2 to BFM #5.
The setting range of the number of times of averaging is 1 to 8. If select the immediate data, value of BFM#2 to
BFM#5 is 1.
3 BFM #10 to BFM #13: Analog data
TheA/D conversion data of each channel is written to BFM #10 to BFM #13.
You can select the immediate (current value) data or the average data by setting the number of times of averaging
(BFM #2 to BFM # 5).
4 BFM #18: Bxxxxxxxxnnnnnnnn

5 BFM #22: Sets convenient functions
The functions described below are assigned to b0 to b3 of BFM #22. When a bit is set to ON, the assigned function
becomes valid.
b0 : Data addition function
When this bit set to ON, the measured value will add addition value and stored into BFM#10~BFM#13.
