Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] staging: iio: ad7606: replace range/range_available
 with corresponding scale

Hello, 

Thanks for explaining it. Now I understand better why read_raw is
formatted in that manner. I have some questions in-line:

Instead of 10000 and 5000, these will be the values for the
scale_available attribute?

Will this be on the same patch or a separate one? Can you please give a
hint on how to check if it is hardwired?
