Example
To enable the reciprocal operation on measurements:
dmm.math.format = dmm.MATH_RECIPROCAL
dmm.math.enable = dmm.ON
dmm.math.mxb.bfactor
Attribute
Specifies the offset for the y = mx + b operation.
Usage
To read the offset for the y = mx + b operation:
value = dmm.math.mxb.bfactor
To write the offset for the y = mx + b operation:
dmm.math.mxb.bfactor = value
value
: Valid range is -4294967295 to +4294967295
Remarks
This attribute specifies the offset (b).

(on page 9-101)
Example
To offset for mx +b operation to 50:
dmm.math.mxb.bfactor = 50
dmm.math.mxb.mfactor
Attribute
Specifies the scale factor for the y = mx + b operation.
Usage
To read the scale factor for y = mx + b operation:
value = dmm.math.mxb.mfactor
To write the scale factor for y = mx + b operation:
dmm.math.mxb.mfactor = value
value
: Valid range for value is -4294967295 to +4294967295
Remarks
This attribute represents the scale factor (m).
