Engineering Units
Input range (scale): the PV range low limit is set to 0%, and the high limit is set to 100%
for conversion.
Input range (scale) span: the PV range span is set to 100% for conversion.
In this manual, the parameter setting range is described as the “input range” and “input
range span.” This means that engineering units are required to be set. Set a temperature
for temperature input.
The following describes a conversion example.
When the PV input range is 100 to 600°C, 0% of the PV range is equivalent to 100°C,
50% of the PV range is equivalent to 350°C, and 100% of the PV range is equivalent to
600°C.
100% of the PV range span is equivalent to 500°C.
20% of the PV range span is equivalent to 100°C.

The above applies to the scale for voltage and current input.
