The SM 1231 analog input signal modules allow the connection of the controller to analog signals of the process.
This provides users with the following advantages:
The signal modules have the same design features as the basic devices.
The SM 1231 analog input signal modules convert analog signals from the process into digital signals for internal processing by the SIMATIC S7-1200 controller.
