Unclear documentation for ANN parameters - matlab

Question

I'm dealing with some problem about reproducing results of ANN. Namely in the parameters of ANN there are 2 that I cannot address:
net. Inputs{i}.range
net.output.range
The documentation is very lapidary and cannot help me to understand how it works. Both seem to have massive impact on the output. Let's consider this MWE:
net=feedforwardnet(10);
net.inputs{1}.size=3;
%net.inputs{1}.range=[0 100;0 100;0 100];
%net.output.range=[1 200;];
net.layers{2}.size=1;
L1=[-1.1014, -2.1138, -2.6975;
-2.3545, 0.7693, 1.7621;
-1.1258, -1.4171, -3.1113;
-0.7845, -3.7105, 0.1605;
0.3993, 0.7042, 3.5076;
0.283, -3.914, -1.3428;
-2.0566, -3.4762, 1.3239;
-1.0626, 0.3662, 2.9169;
0.1367, 2.5801, 2.5867;
0.7155, 2.6237, 2.5376;];
B1=[3.5997, 3.1386, 2.7002, 1.8243, -1.9267, -1.6754, 0.8252, 1.0865, -0.0005, 0.6126];
L2=[0.5005, -1.0932, 0.34, -1.5099, 0.5896, 0.5881, 0.4769, 0.6728, -0.9407, -1.0296];
B2=0.1567;
net.IW{1}=L1;
net.Lw{2,1}=L2;
net.b{1}=B1';
net.b{2}=B2;
input=[40; 30; 20];
output=net(input)
If you uncomment line 3 and 4 the result rises from 0.1464 to 119.1379. I'm trying to reproduce this aspect of Matlab ANN in another environment, but the documentation is too short and does not explain anything.
What do these two parameters exactly do? I mean, what exact function is applied on the input and output data?
