The Scaler task is used to scale or convert an input value into a different output value.

It takes an Input Value, applies the configured scaling parameters, and writes the calculated result to the selected Output Value.

This is useful when a received value needs to be adjusted before it is displayed or used in automation logic. For example, the Scaler task can be used to convert sensor values, correct measurement differences, adjust meter readings, or transform raw device data into a more useful format.

To configure the task, select the input value, define the required scaling parameters, and choose the output value where the scaled result should be written.

The scaled output value can then be used in visualization, tasks, alerts, scenes, schedules, or other parts of the bOS configuration.

Scaler Settings

We can scale the input value via K and N value.

K scaling factor (input value * K = output value)

N scaling factor (input value + N = output value)

KN scaling factor (input value * K + N = output value)

Scaler is very simple but useful task to quicky scale certain values that might be offset or not displaying correctly.
