Editing the Actuator
The Actuator section defines the actuator type connected to the DAQ channel. The actuator you select gives you complete control over how the scaling is done to convert from the actuator to the physical quantity.
| Actuator, Unit, Range | In the Actuator selection box, select an actuator. For information on analog output types, see Analog Output. The actuator you select controls the actuator units displayed for this channel. Some actuator selections also have pre-selected ranges. Your actuator range automatically changes to the appropriate range in terms of your actuator units when you select one of these actuators. |
| Actuator Scaling | In the Scaling Formula selection box, select your scaling option. The voltage or current output options give you complete control over how the actuator is scaled. |
