Built-In Equations
Equation and Channel Type are two essential parameters to make sure the physical
measurement can be converted correctly.
An equation is a software functionality identified by its name of up to 16 characters. A built-in
equation is an equation provided by VersaLog SiteView software to convert a measurement for
a specific channel type.
A channel must have an equation assigned to it in order to make the measurement conversion.
“Digit” built-in equation can be assigned to any channel type. If you assign “Digit” equation to
a channel the physical measurement will be the original digital value measured by ADC
(Analog-to-digital converter) hardware.
