1.7 Using the Scaling Function
This section describes how to use the scaling function to convert voltage values measured by the
instrument into the measurement target’s physical properties (current, temperature, etc.) and then
display or record them.
Converted values can be displayed using decimal or scientic notation.

Select the scaling conversion method.
Ratio
Sets the physical quantity (conversion ratio) per 1 V of input signal and the oset.
2-point Sets converted values for two input signal voltage values.
Sensitivity Sets the sensitivity constant for a heat ow sensor or actinometer.
Rating Sets the rated capacity and rated output according to values in the inspection results
sheet for the strain gage-type converter.
(Setting available when using the U8554/LR8534 Strain Unit)
The conversion method cannot be selected for pulse integration measurement.
See “Scaling settings during integration measurement” (p. 61).
