c.1 After you have selected the Scaling tab, select the radio button labeled “Linear.” See

preceding figure.

c.2 Type in the raw value range for the particular channel type you are configuring. You

can find the raw data ranges in the IOToolKit project configured earlier.

Note: The ranges are located in the Scaling tab in the IOToolKit project. The project

is located under the analog or discrete setup screen. IOToolKit’s Scaling tab

shows the raw minimum (Low) and raw maximum (High) values for PointScan

outputs. The same values are to be placed in the Low and High fields under the
KEPServer Scaling tab. This is true for each tag you are configuring.
