User Guide
This input to output conversion tool provides an easy way to determine the ideal linear output produced by a measurement instrument for any given input value. A conversion scale for each input and output range combination entered is also displayed below the calculated answer.
Input
Input Unit
Enter the measurement unit associated with the input values.
Input Reading
This is the input measurement reading you would like to convert.
Lowest Input
Enter the minimum possible value of the measurement device input range. The value can be a negative or positive value and should be in the same engineering units as all the other Input values.
Highest Input
Enter the maximum possible value of the measurement device input range. The value can be a negative or positive value and should be in the same engineering units as all the other Input values.
Output
Output Unit
Enter the measurement unit associated with the output values.
Lowest Output
Enter the minimum possible value of the measurement device output range. The value can be a negative or positive value and should be in the same engineering units as all the other Output values.
Highest Output
Enter the maximum possible value of the measurement device output range. The value can be a negative or positive value and should be in the same engineering units as all the other Output values.
Output Reading – Answer
This is the ideal Output from the measurement device for the Reading specified for the Input and excludes all measurement device errors and uncertainties.

Output to Input
Can this calculator be used to convert an output to an input?
Yes, just switch them around and enter the output values to the input section and the input values to the output section to determine the ideal input value.
Calibrating a measurement device
Can I use this input/output calculator to calibrate a measurement device?
Yes, but bear in mind that the conversion does not include any errors related to the measurement device or the calibration reference standard, so it can be used to compare the actual measured output readings with the calculated ideal output readings.
-50 to +150C in 4-20mA out
What are the 4-20mA values for a -50 to +150C temperature tx?
Use this graphic to check what milliamp current is produced from a temperature transmitter with a range of -50 to +150 degC, or for more precise conversion values use this calculator to convert any value from -50…+150degC to 4-20mA.
4-20mA to 10-100C
What 4-20mA values from a -10…+100C temperature transmitter?
Use this graphic to check what milliamp current is produced from a temperature transmitter with a range of -10 to +100 degC, or for more precise values use this calculator to convert any value from -10…+100degC to 4-20mA
