3.3 Making Settings from the LR5000 Utility Program
38
Scaling converts actual measurement values to their corresponding values in arbi-
trarily determined units for display. It is useful for reconciling the difference between
values measured with the logger and those of a reference device.
For example, when two points of correspondence are known between values mea-
sured with the logger and those of the reference device, select [Specify by example].
(1) When the logger measures 0.2C the reference device measures 0.0C, and (2)
when the logger measures 50.4C the reference device measures 50.0C
Alternatively, when one point of correspondence is known between the logger and ref-
e
rence device, select [specify by A/B].
(1) The logger measures 0.2C and the reference device measures 0.0C.
