Range A range of quantities defined by the upper and lower limits. Note: "Range" is usually modifier. For example: measurement range, scale range. It can be applied to the measured or working conditions and so on. Measuring range Measuring range Measured by the standard accuracy (precision) of the measured range. Measuring range lower limit measuring range lower limit Measured according to the provisions of precision (precision) the minimum value of the measured. The upper limit of the measurement range. The maximum value of the measurement to be measured. Algebraic difference between upper limit and lower limit of range span. Example: Range -20 ° C to 100 ° C, range 120 ° C. Performance characteristics Related parameters defining the function and capability of instrumentation and their quantification. Reference performance characteristic The performance characteristic achieved under reference operating conditions. Linear scale linear scale The scale of each grid spacing in a scale that is proportional to the corresponding scale value. Note: The scale of the grid spacing is a constant linear scale called the regular scale. Non-linear scale Non-scale Scale scale scale of each scale and the corresponding sub-grid value is not proportional scale. Note: Some non-linear scales have a special name, such as logarithmic scale, square law scale. Zero-scale suppressed-zero scale A scale that does not contain the scale value corresponding to the zero value being measured. For example: Medical thermometer scale. Within the scale of an expanded scale, a disproportionate extension occupies most of the scale length. Scale An ordered set of scale marks that form part of a pointing device and all related numbers. Scale range The range defined by the scale start and end values. Scale mark A scale mark that indicates a scale line or other mark on a device that corresponds to one or more determined measured values. Note: For numbers, the numbers themselves are equivalent to scale marks.
