How to configure calculation table for different types of sensors

This guide describes how to configure the calculation table for the following types of sensors:

Temperature sensor

Before configuring the calculation table for the temperature sensor, find out what temperature the different values of the specified parameter correspond to. Consider the case when the parameter sends only positive values but some of them correspond to negative ones, that is, to the temperature below zero. For example:

  • interval of positive values, from 0 to 127;
  • interval of negative values, from 128 (which corresponds to −128 degrees) to 255 (which corresponds to −1 degree).

To configure the calculation table, follow these steps:

  1. On the Calculation table tab of the temperature sensor properties, add two lines and specify the required values as follows:
  2. If necessary, click on the icon above the table to open the calculation chart.
  3. Click OK.

Engine ignition sensor

Consider an example of configuring the calculation table for a non-digital engine ignition sensor, when the ignition activation is determined by the parameter transmitting voltage. For example, at a voltage up to 0,5 V, the ignition is turned off, and at a voltage over 0,5 V, the ignition is turned on.

To configure the calculation table, follow these steps:

  1. On the Calculation table tab of the engine ignition sensor properties, add two lines and specify the required values as follows:
  2. If necessary, click on the icon above the table to open the calculation chart.
  3. Click OK.
