When the StreamSmart Aplet automatically identifies a sensor, it also chooses a
unit of measurement for that sensor. All subsequent readings from that sensor are
shown using the current unit of measurement. Many, but not all, of the probes have
multiple units of measurement available. For sensors that do have multiple units
available, you can change the unit of measurement at any time using the Unit
