The analyzer is linearized with the following fourth-order polynomial:
Y = A
0
+ A
1
X + A

+ A

4

Where X is the nonlinear input; A0, A1, A2, A3 and A4 are the linearization
coefficients; and Y is the linear output.
Linearization coefficients can be developed for each range and stored in the analyzer
using the front panel keypad. The operating range is selected by entering RANGE = 1,
2, or 3 in the Range Mode. Coefficients for the selected range are automatically used,
independent of the position of Range = n, from the Linearization Mode (except for the
ALL Range selection).

The “All” range is a special feature that allows the user to use Range 3 coefficients for
all three ranges. It should only be used over dynamic ranges of 3:1 or less. If Range A
is selected in the Linearization Mode, the microprocessor will use the coefficients in
Range 3. Also, if the linearizer is ON and in Range A, the microprocessor will use the
GAIN and TIME CONSTANT from Range 3, regardless of the GAIN and TIME
CONSTANT selected for Ranges 1 and 2.
