Hi seelo,
no need to hijack an older and unrelated thread…

Simple math:
intensity = gain * temperature + offset
Now the intensity will increase with rising temperatures…

As far as I know, LabVIEW does not have a temperature. My understanding of physics is that only physical objects can have a temperature (and LabVIEW is not a physical object).
As for adjusting the intensity of light, if the light switch has a dimmer, try adjusting that; or possibly just put on some sunglasses.

You need to be much more specific!
So you are apparently using LabVIEW to read a temperature from an external sensor and are trying to change the intensity of some "light" based on the value.
Are you talking about room lighting, some external LED, or just some indicator on the front panel? Should the light increase or decrease with temperature? Linearly, or according to some complicated nonlinear formula?
If it is just a "light" on the front panel, I recommend a colorbox indicator where you can change the grey level to anything between black and white. It could even be made to look like an LED.
