Hi,

Thank you for your help.
I was able to get the correct result using ESLO. I miss understood the "=" operator in StreamDevices.

Regards,

Could you read it into an ai record RVAL using %d and then use ESLO to
scale the result?

Hi,

I receive a string from a device containing the current draw as a 6
character number. ie. for 2.45 A, the string would be 000245. Using
the format converter %6f in the proto file, I am able to read the
value into a ai record as 245. However when I try to convert the
input string using %=6.2f, I always read in 0 as the current.

Am I understanding the = operator properly? How can I convert the
string 000245 input into 2.45 in the ai record?

Thank you in advance,
