Expand the navigation menu and click System»Units.
This tab controls in which units you can configure a channel to acquire data. Each sensor type, such as acceleration and velocity, can have one or more allowed units. Note that the units allowed for a sensor type also control in which units features and spectral bands can be calculated.
