How do I get raw values into engineering units

New to Fieldpoint and Labview 8.2. Got my 4-20 mA signal readings in MAX, but how do I covert these to engineering units, Is it done in MAX or do I need to do it in Labview?

I believe you will have to do the conversion in Labview.
 
Attached is a VI I wrote to do that.  For 4-20 mA, wire 4 into Min in and 20 into Max in.  Wire your engineering units Max and Min into Max out and Min out.  Put the measurement into Input, you'll get the converted value out of output.
