SCALE_MB

Set Mx+B Scaling Values

 

Set the M and B scaling values for the indicated channel, and display the results of

 

the Mx+B calculation in the indicated display range. Changing the Mx+B of any

 

channel also clears the Review array, and resets ALARM OUTPUTS and DIGITAL

 

I/O lines.

When M=1 and B=0, there is no Mx+B scaling. The entries for M and B must be between +/-0.0001E-3 and +/-9999.9E+6. An Execution Error is generated by invalid entries, a channel set to OFF, if the instrument is

scanning, or if the range code is too low for the selected B value. For example, the minimum display range for B=1000 is code 8. Mx+B scaling values for a channel are automatically reset to 1 (M) and 0 (B) when the function for that channel is changed. Returned measurements for a channel with Mx+B scaling has a function identifier of MX+B (when FORMAT 2 has been asserted).

Example: SCALE_MB 18,+.55555,-17.777,6 [For channel 18, M=+.55555, B=- 17.777, and the display range is 00.000 x1.]
