Current at Full-scale reading Formula

Current at Full Scale Reading = Full Scale Voltage Reading/Meter Resistance
I_fs = E_fs/R_m

What is full scale value?

A signal is at full scale if it reaches from −32,767 to +32,767. (This means that −32,768, the lowest possible value, slightly exceeds full-scale.) .In a floating-point representation, a full-scale signal is typically defined to reach from −1.0 to +1.0.
