Page 44: Linearization
6.2. Linearization The linearization function of this unit allows converting a linear input signal into a non-linear developing (or vice versa). There are 24 programmable x/y coordinates available for input 1 and input 2, which can be set in any desired distance over the full conversion range. Between two coordinates, the unit uses linear interpolation. - Page 45 Application Example: We like to display the filling quantity (volume) of a tank as shown below, with use of a pressure sensor mounted to the bottom of the tank. With this application the analogue pressure signal is proportional to the filling level, but not to the filling quantity.
