APPENDIX A DATA HANDLING
A.1 Engineering units
System engineering units are required for proper rounding of the
internal engineering units. The system engineering units are selected
during the configuration of the CIU 888, but also in a later stadium when
the settings of the CIU 888 are configured (partly or fully) and the
CIU 888 is operational. The CIU 888 Web interface presents the
configuration settings in the selected system engineering units.
The CIU 888 supports the same set of engineering units as supported
by Ensite Pro version 3.0. Furthermore, the CIU 888 supports all the
possible engineering units of each supported gauge type as far as these
are supported by the CIU 880 Prime.
A.2 Data presentation
A.2.1 Decimal and thousand separators
A.2.1.1 Decimal separator
The CIU 888 displays its floating point numeric data with a decimal
separator which is either a dot (default) or a comma. Other characters
are not allowed. A number cannot start nor end with a decimal
separator. So ‘0.2’ is correct, but ‘.2’ is not correct.
NOTE: The decimal separator parameter falls under the W&M seal.
A.2.1.2 Thousand separator
The CIU 888 displays its numeric data with a thousand separator which
is either a dot, a comma (default) or no separator. Other characters are
not allowed. The thousand separator is applied before and after the
decimal separator to group three digits. A number cannot start nor end
with a thousand separator.
NOTE: The thousand separator parameter falls under the W&M seal.
A.2.1.3 Configuring the decimal separator and thousand separator
The decimal separator and thousand separator are both initialized
during setup of the site configuration in Ensite Pro, and are taken from
the settings configured for the PC/laptop running Ensite Pro.
To configure the decimal separator and thousand separator:
