3.3 Making Settings from the LR5000 Utility Program

Scaling converts actual measurement values to their corresponding values in arbi-
trarily determined units for display. It is useful for reconciling the difference between
values measured with the logger and those of a reference device.
For example, when two points of correspondence are known between values mea-
sured with the logger and those of the reference device, select
[Specify by example] .
(1) When the logger measures 0.2 ° C the reference device measures 0.0 ° C, and (2)
when the logger measures 50.4 ° C the reference device measures 50.0 ° C
Alternatively, when one point of correspondence is known between the logger and ref-
erence device, select
[Specify by A/B] .
(1) The logger measures 0.2
°
C and the reference device measures 0.0
°
C.
