Example 1: Displayed temperature test value is 25℃,
upper temperature test limit is 70℃, lower temperature
test limit-20℃, the result when set into the formula is
12mA.
Example 2: Displayed humidity test value is 33%RH,
upper temperature test limit is 100%RH, lower
temperature test limit is 0%RH, the result when set into
the formula is 9.28mA
