Determines the maximum absolute value of the input array X and then scales X using this value. Details

![]() |
X consists of the input array. |
![]() |
Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| is the output array. |
![]() |
max|X| is the maximum absolute value in the input array. |

error returns any error or warning from the VI. You can wire error to the Error Cluster From Error Code VI to convert the error code or warning into an error cluster. |
The VI calculates Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| using the following equation.

where s is the maximum absolute value in X.
You can use this VI to normalize sequences within the range [1:1]. This VI is particularly useful if the sequence is a zero mean sequence.
