Option 4

When this option is selected you will be prompted to enter a scaling multiplier. This multiplier is used to
convert the raw input into engineering units. It is the “m” variable in the y=mx+c scaling equation.

> Multiplier=

Option 5

When this option is selected you will be prompted to enter a scaling offset. This offset is added to the scaled
engineering value. It is the “c” variable in the y=mx+c scaling equation.

> Offset=


Option 6

When this option is selected you will be prompted to enter a logging multiplier to convert from engineering
units to an integer value for storage in the logging memory.

> Log Multiplier=

For example, if you need to log a measurement that has a resolution of two decimal places,
you will need to enter a logging multiplier of 100.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Care needs to be taken in the selection of an appropriate logging
multiplier because the iRIS stores data as signed 16-bit integer values (range from -32768 to

32767). This means that the maximum scaled value multiplied by the logging multiplier must
not exceed 32767. If it does, the values will limit at that point and data will be lost.

Option 7

When this option is selected you will be prompted to enter a logging rate (in minutes) for the sensor.

> Log Rate=

If you wish to log digital data in true event (change of state) mode you can enter a value of 0 for this setting.


If this parameter is left set to 0 for any non-pulse type source, then it will not be logged.
