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

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.
Quick Scale 1D
This VI calculates Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| using the following equation:
where s is the maximum absolute value in X.
If X is an array of zeros, this VI returns max|X| as 0 and Y[i]=X[i]/Max|X| as an array of zeros.
Quick Scale 2D
This VI calculates Yij=Xij/Max|X| using the following equation:
where s denotes the maximum absolute value in X.
If X is an array of zeros, this VI returns max|X| as 0 and Yij=Xij/Max|X| as an array of zeros.
