Setting for inch/metric in the paramtm.ini file
The excerpts printed below are found in the paramtm.ini. In newer software versions, the
paramtm.ini comments have been summarized in paramtm.txt.
As a general rule, the desired entries are made in ...\user\paramtm.ini so that they are
retained during the next HMI software update.

...\user\paramtm.ini as described below. Otherwise the default setting applies.
