Chart Recorder reading problem.

Hello,

 

i've made a data recorder with Dasylab 10 for a vacuum gauge from Adixen (see attachment)

As an analog input  PCI-6023E cart=> formula => Chart recorder

 

It's working ok on the x-as the timeline is 1 hour, but there is something wrong with the y-as.

It gives for example 0,11E-3 this value is ok but I prefer reading 1,1E-4

I know its the same, but not what we want.

 

Anybody knows a solution for this?

What about using the Engineering format rather than Exponential format?  You will have the number format as E-3, E-6, E-9 etc..

 

I like to use this way better becuase, as an engineer, it relate better to m, mm etc...

 

Other than that, I don't think you can choose how to display the exponential format.

Thanks for the fast reply TomRizzo.

 

 I tried the exponential format and the enginerings format too. In engineerings format it gives me values like 666.67E6 in the y-scaling.  

 

My line is also not giving the right results. I connected also a list to the output of the formula, there I cant choose the output format.

 

Do I need a extra module between the formula and the Chartrecorder / List to scale this?

Sorry but this is my first experience with Dasylab, I dont know what is possible or not, I tried this for weeks now to get normal scaling on the y-axis
