Definition of Slope and Offset
Slope and offset values are entered to scale a result from the IMMAGE 800 to
correlate with other systems.
Acceptable slope entries: 0.001 - 9999.0
Acceptable offset entries: -9999.0 - +9999.0
The result is multiplied by the slope, then the offset is added or subtracted.
