Usage example of Gear Functions

The output value starts with offset = 0 and gain = 1 (blue line)

Gear Functions Usage

You can call the MLGearWriteOff function to modify the Offset (where Offset_Slope is set with the MLGearWriteOSlp function).

Gear Functions Usage

After setting the Offset (Q=TRUE in the previous figure), you can call the MLGearWriteRatio function to modify the gear Ratio (where Gain_Slope is set with the MLGearWriteRatSlp function).

Gear Functions Usage

The output value is finally adapted with the gear offset and ratio (blue line).
