Fct. 3.6.4
Tracking speed,
Fct. 3.5.4
(in m/min when Fct.3.1.1 = m, cm or mm
or in ft/min when Fct.3.1.1 = inch or ft)
The Fct. 3.2.2 (length unit for display) can be set independently of the unit selected under Fct.
3.1.1.
Conversion units
By conversion is meant the transposition of an arbitrary level value into a "conversion value"
(usually volume), so as, for example, to realise a non-linear function as a factor of the level.
