The analog inputs can be interfaced by using analog I/O modules and can be connected directly,
because the S7-200 converts the analog value internally using analog to digital converters. The
S7-200 converts an analog value (such as temperature or voltage) into a word-length (16-bit)
digital value. You can access these values by the area identifier (AI), size of the data (W), and the
starting byte address. Since analog inputs are words and always start on even-number bytes (such
as 0, 2, or 4), you access them with even-number byte addresses (such as AIW0, AIW2, or
AIW4). Analog input values are read-only values.
Q3: How can we use memory bits as an intermediate result storage slot?
Memory bits are essential memory area of any control program. It is very often that we may use
to store a result of an intermediate event, while not transferring the result to the output world.
You can use the bit memory area (M memory) as control relays to store the intermediate status of
an operation or other control information. You can access the bit memory area in bits, bytes,
words, or double words:
Bit: M [byte address].[bit address] M26.7
Byte, Word, or Double Word: M[size][starting byte address] MD20
Difference:
Static memory keeps it contents for a relatively long time and in most cases it is read only, while
the dynamic memory contents keeps on changing and the memory is usually read/write.
