Load Scalar

Overview

The load scalar is used to convert the raw ’load’ values into more meaningful physical units.

Typically, Load values are pressure readings calibrated to units of kPa, but this can be changed to other units of pressure (or other quantities) - see Units.

Note that changing the load scalar will affect the meaning of any related calibration values and measurements collectively, which may require recalibration of the ECU.

For example, if using MAP as Load and the MAP sensor is changed to one with a different range, then all load related items may require recalibration if the scaling of raw MAP readings no longer leads to equivalent physical pressure values.

Load Scalar Options

Option	Description
Load Scalar	Multiplier, m as in the linear scaling equation, y = mx + c.
Load Offset	Offset c as in the linear scaling equation, y = mx + c.
