IMAQ clamp

[huskerli]

Hi all,

Can anyone able to tell me the reason for an offset between the exact number with the ratio which is 1.56 I marked in the jpg file used and the final number that was written into the txt file ?

I mean why 1.56 and where the number come from?

Thanks

I really am not sure exactly what you mean, but if you're asking why the number "in the txt file" is not exactly 1.56, it's because you're using a computer, which works in base 2, not base 10. You would need an infinite number of sig figs to represent 1.56 exactly in base 2.

My question is where is 1.56 come from, why we need the distance divide 1.56?

Can I use 2 instead?

Thanks

That's something the person who wrote the VI would know best (although others here may also know, I don't). Is there no documentation?
