Numeric Box Linearization

Linearizing enables you to convert values. For example, you can convert analog input values to values in degrees Celsius.  

 

If, for example, X1 and Y1 are 0, and X2=1023 while Y2=1000, the output value will be linearized as graphed.

These values would cause:

  • An input of 5.0V to be converted to a digital value of 500.

  • A input of 10.0V to be converted to a digital value of 1000.

 

The X and Y values must not exceed the range of -2147483648 to +2147483647.

Known Issues

  • The Linearization function cannot be used if the values are close to 0xFFFFFFFF.

  • If Linearization is enabled on a Numeric Box, the value entered by the user is not directly stored in memory. Instead, the stored value corresponds to the input X required to achieve the specified output Y based on the linearization parameters.
