bias

Zero offset used to convert analog and serial inputs or any received value into engineering units. Bias and scale are used in the following formula to convert transducer output voltage to engineering units.

Value = ( Voltage * Scale ) + Bias

To compute bias, use the following formula:

Bias = (High Value) - ( Scale * (High Voltage))

Bias is displayed to 4 decimal places and can be positive or negative. Bias should be 0.0000 for all time duration variables. For Simulated sources, the bias is applied to the simulated signal.
