Are you sure it is averaging the data? I suppose it can be tested so if you have verified that the linearize tool is doing that, then everything is great. I wouldn't want to do this and presume it is averaging and have it actually be pulling the first or the last values only.
Thanks for the link... I had seen that, but as I said, I am concerned whether the values are actually averaged, so I felt that it was worth asking the learned group here.
