to specify the downloaded values, except that
the final units designator is not followed by a
comma.
A value may have 1-2 decimal places,
depending on how many will fit in a six-digit
value. The maximum value for any
measurement is 99999.9; the minimum is -
9999.9. Since the instrument cannot measure
more than a few thousand feet, the maximum
possible values can only be obtained through
cumulative distance measurements or by using
a large offset.
Each unit designator is a one-character
indicator. Legal values are:
F=feet
M=meters
