| | દ્દશ્ય અનુરૂપ માપક્રમ | Explanation:
I translated each word separately and not the term as a whole. You may refer Ganit Paribhashik Shabdkosh as well as Rasayanshastra Paribhashik Shabdkosh by Popular Prakashan, Surat to sort out such teasers. Usually my clients expect me to transliterate such terms.

Normally in such cases "analog" is the only word that may be better understood in the transliterated form. I would explain this to my PM and make it "દ્દશ્ય ઍનેલોગ માપક્રમ" though I have observed many who transliterate "scale" too.

Asker: Thanks, Umang. Yes, these are the exact words I got from the dictionary, but it sounded forced to my ears. I was wondering if the entire concept has a term, or is it best left transliterated? I'd have suggested a transliteration myself. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!
Asker: I'm thinking of a complete transliteration with the translation in brackets. Thanks again for your help :-)
