where y is the output, x is the input, M is the conversion multiplier, S is the conversion offset, is the minimum operator output value, and is the maximum operator output value.
User-Defined Properties:
Object Name. A string label that identifies the operator
Multiplier. The conversion multiplier, M
Offset. The conversion offset, S
Min. Output Value. The minimum conversion value,
Max. Output Value. The maximum conversion value,
