Purpose: Take a data value where you know the upper and lower limits and "normalize" the data so that it proportionally scales to a binary weighted value.
For instance, say you have a potentiometer that reads 204 on one extreme and 8453 on the other extreme. ...And the current value is 2834. You want to scale that to a 12-Bit number? Simply load the Data, BitResolution, RefLOW, RefHIGH variables and call the function. The returned value will contain the result. 1306 in this case.
