Scaling
In scaling, the measured/generated/simulated value is displayed in
another, user defined quantity/unit. Start scaling as described in
chapter Display Mode Settings on page 76.
When selecting Scaling Display Mode, the following configuration
window appears:
You can scale the quantity either to a quantity that already exists in
MC5P or select Custom Units from the Scale Mode field. Then
you can manually enter any unit to the Scale Unit field (see the
rightmost picture above).
When scaling is active in a Basic
Mode window, the window contains
the text āSCALEDā. The true value
is displayed in Extra Info row. If the
Extra Info row was assigned to
some other measurement before
scaling was started, the other mea-
surement is automatically stopped.
Note.
Remember to set the amount of
decimals to be displayed for a Cus-
tom Unit. The default value is 3.
