 Channels carrying an analog signal or channels with counter inputs must be assigned a ''scale'' and ''range'' key. With these values the HAL is able to translate between the analog signal and its digital value as this digital value is necessary when accessing the hardware converter (counter, adc, dac). For examples in how to setup the scale and range properly see [[eeros_architecture:hal:scaling|]]. There are cases where the HAL should account for several stages on a scalable input or output, see [[eeros_architecture:hal:scaling_multi|]]. Channels carrying an analog signal or channels with counter inputs must be assigned a ''scale'' and ''range'' key.

 +===== Safe Value for Analog Output =====
 +An analog output can have an associated //safe// value. If a //NAN// of //INF// value would be written to its output, the output value will instead be set to its //safe// value. This helps to guarantee that a drive will not get out of control. //NAN// or //INF// can occur, if a connection between blocks is open, if a block does not run or if an algorithm within a block produces this result due to an error. If the configuration does not specify a //safe// value, it is set to //NAN//.
