5.10 _8216_AD_Set_Range
@ Description
This function is used to set the A/D range by means of writing data to
the A/D range control register. There are two factors will change the
analog input range- Gain and Input type. The Gain can be choice from
1,2,4 and 8. The initial value of gain is '1' which is set by the ACL-8216
hardware. The relationship between analog input range and gain is
specified by following tables:
Input
Range (V)
Gain Range

@ Example
#include "8216.h"
main()
{
_8216_Initial( CARD_1, 0x220 );
/* Assume NoError when Initialize ACL-8216 */
