This determines only how data is presented to the user, data is still

processed and logged with full precision.

3.1.5 Polynomial

The factors assigned to this polynomial dictate how data values are

scaled/converted from raw voltage/count values to real physical quantities.

Each data channel has room for an 8-term polynomial, one constant and 7

X-terms.

The format for the polynomial is as follows:
C, X-term, X

-term, X

!

-term, X

"

-term, X

#

-term, X

$

-term, X

%

-term

The polynomial is calculated as follows:
y = P0 + xP1 + x

P2 + x

!

P3 + x

"

P4 + x

#

P5 + x

$

P6 + x

%

P7

Where: y =

the result

x =

the input value

P0 =

X-term

Pn =

Xn-term (where n = 1 to 7)

Define only those terms required by the conversion in question, all additional

unnecessary terms add to the processing time required for this channel.

3.1.6 Applied Function

The “applied function” property allows for further processing to be applied to

data values far beyond the scope of simple scaling. Functions exist that allow

averaging, min/max hold and crosswind calculation.

A list of available functions together with examples is given in Table 1 below.
