Application Type 7: Pounds
Allows the user to apply a conversion multiplier to the calculated level reading.
NOTE: the decimal point for the multiplier (40436-40437) is always assumed
to be in the thousands position, therefore a setting of 206250 = 206.250
actual multiplier.
Example: suppose the product in a tank weighs 206.25 pounds for every inch
of level. With the Units set to inches (Units = 2), enter a multiplier of 206250
into Holding registers 40436-40437.
