3.1.4.1.4 External scaled measurement
The analog input value is converted into digital ticks from 0 (representing U of the selected input, e.g. -5V)
to 4095 (representing U of the selected input, e.g. +5V) which must be computed externally for further use.
This feature allows a nonlinear conversion of one of the available analog inputs using a polynomial function up
to 5th order and to read the value directly.
It’s also possible to describe a voltage divider connected to the analog input for sensors that output a
resistance as measurement value.
Use case: Temperature sensor
Applications include converting the output of a temperature sensor directly into degrees Celsius,
Fahrenheit or any other unit desired by the user.
For details about using temperature sensors please check our System integration guide.
Use case: Torque sensor
Applications include converting the output of a torque sensor directly into mNm, Nm or any other unit
desired by the user.
