Functions
dmm.FUNC_DIGITIZE_CURRENT
dmm.FUNC_DIGITIZE_VOLTAGE
Details
This command sets the scale factor (m) for an mx + b operation for the selected measurement
function.
The mx + b math operation lets you manipulate normal display readings (x) mathematically according
to the following calculation:
y = mx + b
Where:
• y is the displayed result
• m is a user-defined constant for the scale factor
• x is the measurement reading (if you are using a relative offset, this is the measurement with relative
offset applied)
• b is the user-defined constant for the offset factor
Example
dmm.digitize.func = dmm.FUNC_DIGITIZE_CURRENT
dmm.digitize.math.format = dmm.MATH_MXB
dmm.digitize.math.mxb.mfactor = 0.80
dmm.digitize.math.mxb.bfactor = 50
dmm.digitize.math.enable = dmm.ON
Set the measurement function to digitize
current.
Set the scale factor for the mx +b operation
to 0.80.
Set the offset factor to 50.
Enable the math function.
