Hello,
When units are used with numerics in LabVIEW, the physical quantity is
always in the base unit type (for length, the base unit is meters).
If you ever see a case where .01 mm is displayed as 10 micrometers,
this is a flaw in LabVIEW. (I haven't been able to reproduce it). If
you can include an example where this happens, that would be great.
However, it sounds like what is being wired is .01 meters, which is
10mm.
Also, there is an easy way to get the unit label to update as the
value of the numeric changes. Click on the numeric control/indicator
and select Properties... Then go to the "Format & Precision" tab and
select "SI Notation" as the format. This will cause the unit label to
use the SI prefixes when appropriate. Other comments appreciated.
