(1) For engineering units x 1, values are expressed in 0.1 degrees or 0.01 mV. For engineering units x 10, values are expressed in 1.0 degrees or 0.1 mV.
(2) When millivolt input type is selected, the bit setting for temperature units is ignored.
(3) Ensure unused bits 12 through 14 are always set to zero.
