Step 3. Select Point Conversions and Enumeration

Procedure

  1. Click Advanced on the General tab the Point Properties (and Data Item) dialog box.
  2. Select the Conversion tab.
  3. Continue using the following methods.
    Step 3.3. Select a Point as an Enumeration PointStep 3.2. Configure the Conversion Type for a Device PointStep 3.1. Configure Base Point Engineering Units for a Point
    Step 3.1 Configure base engineering units for a point.
    Step 3.2 (For device points) Configure the conversion type.
    Step 3.3 Select a point as an enumeration point.
    Note: If you select a unit of measurement on the Conversion tab, and the project has an active measurement system at runtime, the base engineering units for the point are automatically converted to the corresponding units in the active measurement system.

    If there is no active measurement system, the base engineering units are used. If the project has an active measurement system at runtime, no further point conversion takes place.
