I have a pressure sensor with an output signal 4-20 mA and a pressure range 0-250 bar.
I'm going to use this sensor in a PLC based pressure control system. The user is going to set a required value to pressure by an HMI panel and the current pressure value will be displayed on the same panel screen.
My question is can I directly multiply by the factor of the sensor which is 12.5 in this case instead of using a scaling PLC function to display the pressure reading in bars?
