NOTE
When metric values are used and changes are made to the oil pressure sender
data points, undesirable internal rounding of some data points can occur. For
example, select 700 kilopascals for one data point, create a sender file, and the
value is rounded to 697. Rounding that occurs will never be greater than 4
kilopascals.
