Value Presentation
The EcoStruxure Building Operation software handles values and numbers with the highest precision. By default, the unit of a value is converted according to the regional settings of the user’s operating system.
Units
The EcoStruxure Building Operation software supports both the SI metric system and the US Customary System for units of measurement.
There are four optional ways to display units:
As MS Windows
As configured in object
International System of Units (Metric)
United States Customary Units (US)
For more information, see Units .
Metric Prefixes
WorkStation supports the metric prefix range from yocta (10 -24 ) to yotta (10 24 ). The use of a prefix is optional and is defined together with the unit.
For more information, see Metric Prefixes .
Precision Format
Values in the EcoStruxure Building Operation software are stored in the EcoStruxure Building Operation database with all input decimals. If a stored value consists of more decimals than the operating system is defined to display, the value is rounded off according to the operating system settings before it is displayed in WorkStation.
