industries could be weighing, blending, batch processing, scaling, positioning,
test stands, and heat treating. The square root function is frequently used for
flow measurement and in mining applications.

This manual shows you how to install and program the AF4 in your
Mini-PLC-2/15 controller.

We assume that you are familiar with programming and operation of the
Mini-PLC- 2/15 and the Industrial Terminal (cat. no. 10770-T3). If this is not
the case, refer to the appropriate publications or see our Publication Index
(publication SD499).

WARNING: : Use only Allen-Bradley authorized programming
devices to program Allen-Bradley programmable controllers.
Using unauthorized programming devices may result in
unexpected operation, possibly causing equipment damage
and/or injury to personnel.
