Getting Started with Format Manager-1.1.0en
Appendix A - The Formatting Options for Export Variables
Units
The unit type as to how the data will be output for each variable can
be defined. This setting will overide any unit setting in SKI-Pro or on
the sensor. Does not apply to String export variables.
Linear variables (such as coordinates, baseline lengths) can be set
to metres, US feet, or Intl feet.
Angular variables (such as convergence angle) can be set to
radians, gons, degrees (sexagesimal), degrees (decimal) or
mils.
The Use system unit will read the instrument settings regardless of
the Format Manager settings for that variable.
Fill Character
Fill characters are used to "fill" variables that have fewer characters
than the defined length for that variable. Applies also to String and
Integer export variables.
Either spaces or 0 can be used as the fill character.
In the example below, the output is right aligned and has a length
of 7.
Examples (using Point ID of 12345):
0 as fill character - 0012345
space as fill character - 12345
The space fill character is automatically selected if a
variable is left aligned.
