Ratiometric

I have Phidget Interface Kit,voltage and current sensors. voltage sensor is nonratiometric and current sensor is ratiometric. In phidgets API you can enable or disable ratiometric option but I didnt see this ability in Flowstone or I dont know. Do u know how could I enable or disable ratiometric option for InterfaceKit through Flowstone.

Thanks

Can you rephrase? I don't understand what this question is about or what it refers to.

I remember seeing it when learning about capacitors.....but had to google to jog memory..

'the ratio of the sensor output to the sensor voltage'..

or(from Dictionary)

'Describing any system in which an output is directly proportional to an input'.

or..

it refers to the output voltage as a ratio of the supply voltage.
Eg: if the input voltage is doubled, the output voltage is doubled.
