<Units> Element

The <Units> element specifies the units of measurement for the selected <Integer> or <Double> User-Defined Control. The following table lists all of the valid measurement units with an abbreviated version, if supported. All unit names in the table are not case sensitive. For example, you can enter Ampere, ampere, or aMpErE. The units of measurement are show in the control field along with any multiplier. For example, 9.953 GHz. Although the units are not available or sent to the script, the units serve a reminder of the type of data entered in the control field.

Valid Measurement Units

Full Name	Abbreviation (if available)
none
ampere	A
Bit Error Ratio	BER
bits
Bd
Cycle	c
dBm
decibel	dB
division	div
inch	in
Farad	F
feet	ft
gain
Henry	H
Hertz	Hz
hits	hits
hour
meter	m
minute	min
Ohm
percent	%
points	pts
ratio	' : 1' Do not include apostophe (') characters as part of the elements contents. The apostophes show that a space character is required before and after the colon (:) character. For example, <Units>' : 1'</Units> is not valid and will cause an error. However, <Units> : 1</Units> is valid. It is easier and more reliable simply to use the full name "ratio".
