Scale Factor: The scale factor is the linear slope of the line represented in Figure 5-1 .
The scale factor is the ratio of the change of the scaled integers compared to the change of
the measured process variable.
The Scale Factor and Offset must be configured for the current unit codes. If the unit
codes are changed the Scale Factor and Offset must be recalculated.
[Equation 3] A = (y

- y

)/(x

)
Offset: The offset is calculated using [Equation 4].
[Equation 4] B = A(x

) + 32768 - y
