Linear conversion configuration
Check Linear in the Device conversion box.
Enter values as follows.
Raw values |
Low |
Two valid raw values. |
|
|
|

Linear conversion formula
These four values calculate the linear conversion for the point.
The conversion formula is:
Where
EU value |
= |
the Engineering Units value |
RL |
= |
Low raw value |
RH |
= |
High raw value |
CL |
= |
Low conversion value |
CH |
= |
High conversion value |
Raw value |
= |
the value read from the device. |
The inverse of this expression converts set point values that are entered by users to raw values. The raw values can be downloaded to the device.
Step 3.2. Configure the conversion type for a device point. |
