Sensors

The sensor section allow Raken to convert a digital or an analog input of a Muxen device into a physical variable. The variable will be available in the internal Brain data-bus to be display, or use into another application like the energy balance.

The sensor configuration will be applied when the project will be deployed.

Sensor configuration

Scale by steps

Step scaling is used for non-linear sensors, such as tank gauges.

Scale by polynomial

Polynomial scaling is used for linear sensors, such as current or temperature transducers.

Scale by parts

Parts scaling is used for pseudo linear sensors, such as keel angular position.
