Change the Display Scale
One very important thing to note is that the scaled range shown on the right side of the bar graph on the
setup screen sets the DEFAULT DISPLAY RANGE for this channel. Therefore, if you were to put this chan-
nel into a strip chart, scope, or analog meter gauge on the display screens, the scale will be taken from this
bar graph.
Let’s take the example of the thermocouple channel, which is scaled like this:
So, if we put this channel into a strip chart, DEWESoft will set the scale to match the right side of the bar
graph, like this:
Note that DEWESoft set the channel’s display scale from -4.5e2 (-454°F) to 2.5e3 (+2498°F).
But what if this range is too much? Let’s say that you expect to only really measure from -100°F to +400°F?
