Making Scale Transfers (Scale)
The Scale operation emulates a transducer by helping you to
convert the measured readings proportionally to the
specified ratio and unit display. Use Scale to transfer voltage
readings to proportional readings when using clamp- on
current probes, high voltage probes, or temperature auxiliary
probes. The available scale conversions are shown in the
table below.
