Example:
Determining the Current Unit of
Measure
This example shows how you can use the
[PRINT] key to send a unique custom transmit
for each displayed unit of measure.

interrupted. Accessing the setup will not change a unit's
name.
If a unit's name exceeds 2 characters, the center-of-zero
indication will not appear.
If a unit's name exceeds 4 characters, the scale number
will not appear in the case of multiple scale operation.

Selects the displayed units of measure for the current scale. Omitting
unit# toggles through the units specified in the setup mode at
1
P131àP134.
0%u Selects the units assigned at P131 for the current scale.
1%u Selects the units assigned at P132 for the current scale.
2%u Selects the units assigned at P133 for the current scale.
3%u Selects the units assigned at P134 for the current scale.
%u Toggles to the next units assigned at P131àP134.

Determine if a specific unit of measure is currently selected.
0?%u Determines if "lb" is the current units for the current scale.
0.0?%u Determines if "lb" is the current units for the current scale.
0.1?%u Determines if "lb" is the current units for scale #1.
0.2?%u Determines if "lb" is the current units for scale #2.
3.2?%u Determines if "g" is the current units for scale #2.
Rename Units

Allows a unit's displayed name to be changed. Once changed, the new
name will be displayed every time the specified units are accessed.
Renaming the units in this manner allows you to use a unit's name to
display a prompt without suspending macro execution. The example –
