Input channel scaling parameters

Before running a test, many input sensors must be scaled. Define sensor scaling parameters in Input channels.

To configure a channel for sensor scaling, first set the Scaling mode in the channel editor dialog or channel grid (Closedscreenshot).

Depending on the mode selected, different scaling parameters must be specified to define the scaling line.
