Right now we have to know what's the value of a sensor at 0V and 5V. This is wrong, as most sensors won't go down to 0V or to 5V for a reason, namely error checking (0V = short to ground, 5V = short to Vref).
Please allow us to set the volts at which the min and max value occur for the "Linear" transformation, ie:
0.5V -> 0%
4.5V -> 100%
I know we can do a few math calculations and calculate the values for 0V and 5V, but not everyone can do it easily or when they are in a hurry.
Thanks!

Re: Generic sensors - allow to set the volts for min/max val
Or maybe an easier work around would be to add a quick extrapolate function in Tuner Studio. Maybe a dialog that pops up and lets you enter your values at their respective voltages and TS calculates the 0V and 5V values for you.
No math to do, quick and no firmware changes needed. Now you just have to get Phil to buy in

Re: Generic sensors - allow to set the volts for min/max val
It is really a small point but you are right. It is very easy to calculate but all other dataloggers and racing hardware that I used was allowing to change both axis (voltage and sensor value). It could really help.
