About Units of MeasureAny numeric field in any family can have a unit of measure (UOM) associated with it. The UOM associatedwith a field characterizes the values that are stored in that field. For example, a numeric field with theUOM Feet will store values measured in feet.

The UOM functionality in Configuration Manager allows you to do four things:

• Set up the UOMs available for association with numeric fields. After you have defined UOMs, you canassociate them with numeric family fields to characterize the type of data that is stored in the fields.

• Define how one UOM will be converted to another UOM (e.g., how inches will be converted tocentimeters).

• Create UOM Conversion Sets, which are groups of UOM conversions that determine how values will bedisplayed to a certain set of users. After you have configured UOM Conversion Sets, you can associatethem with the users in your system.

• If you are using SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), then you can display the UOMs for the numericvalues in an SSRS Report. Therefore, when you view an SSRS Report, you can see the value and theassociated UOM.

Note: If the query used to create the reports is in formatted mode, then only the UOM will appear inthe Reports.

◦ To display the UOM in the SSRS Report, use the following expression in the Report Designer.Fields!<nameofthefield>.FormattedValueFor example: Fields!Operating_Pressure.FormattedValue

◦ To view the report without the UOM, use the following expression in the Report Designer.Fields!<nameofthefield>.valueFor example: Fields!Operating_Pressure.Value

Note: Members of the MI APMNow Admin Security Group has full access to Units of Measure andConversions.

About UOM ConversionsUsing the Units of Measure Conversions feature, you can configure the units of measure conversions andtheir system of measure if you are a tenant admin or a user with edit permissions for units of measureconversions.

UOM conversions let you specify how one unit of measure will be converted to another unit of measure.The conversions that you define will be used to convert values stored in one UOM to another UOM fordisplay. For example, you might define a conversion for the UOM inches that will convert values stored ininches to centimeters for display.

After you have defined conversions for the UOMs in your system, you can create Conversion Sets, whichare sets of conversions that will be used by specific users. For example, if your database is configured tostore values in English Standard units and you have a group of users who would prefer to view thosemeasurements in Metric units, you could create an English-to-Metric Conversion Set and assign it to thoseusers. In this way, your database would store the English Standard values, and when the system wasaccessed by a Metric user, the English Standard values would be converted and displayed in Metric unitsto that user.

You can view and analyze data in your preferred system of measure units regardless of your location.

6 © 2020 General Electric Company

The GE Digital APM system provides a set of default UOM conversions that are used by ThicknessMonitoring. You will need to configure manually any other conversion that you want to use for creatingConversion Sets.

Note: To define how one UOM will be converted to another, both UOMs must first exist in your system.This means, before you can define the conversions for a UOM, you must first add all the units of measureto which that UOM will be converted in the list of measures. Note also that if you define a conversion fromone UOM to another UOM, you should also define a conversion from the converted UOM back to theoriginal UOM. For example, if you define for the Inches UOM a conversion to centimeters, then for theCentimeters UOM, you should define a conversion back to inches.

Specify Conversions Between Units of Measurement

About This Task

Note: In the following instructions, we use the term From Value to mean the UOM from which a value isbeing converted and To Value to mean the UOM to which a value is being converted.

Procedure


2. Select Units of Measure.The Units of Measure workspace appears, displaying the list of existing units of measures.

3. Select the measure for which you want to specify conversions, and then select ConversionsThe Conversions for <Label> page appears, where <Label> is the name of the unit of measure.

4. Select .The New Conversion window appears.

5. As needed, enter the values in the following fields:

• Destination Unit of Measure (UOM): Select the unit of measure from the drop-down list that willserve as the destination of the conversion (that is the To Value).

• Base: Enter the value that should be added to the From Value before the Numerator andDenominator are applied. To specify that a value should be subtracted from the From Value, type anegative number. A Base value of 0 (zero) indicates the From Value will not be modified before theNumerator or Denominator are applied.For example, the equation to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is C = (F - 32) / 1.8, where 32 issubtracted from the From Value before it is divided by 1.8. In this case, the Base would be -32.

• Numerator: Enter the fraction by which the From Value must be multiplied to arrive at the ToValue.For example, the equation to convert Centimeters to Inches is cm = in x 2.54. In this case, theNumerator would be 2.54 and the Denominator would be 1.

• Denominator: Enter the fraction by which the From Value must be multiplied to arrive at the ToValue.For example, The equation to convert Inches to Centimeters is in = cm / 2.54. In this case, theDenominator would be 2.54 and the Numerator would be 1. Alternatively, you could set theNumerator to 0.39 and the Denominator to 1.

• Offset: Enter the value that should be added to the From Value after the Numerator andDenominator are applied. To specify that a value should be subtracted from the From Value, typea negative number. An Offset value of 0 (zero) indicates the From Value will not be modified furtherafter the Numerator or Denominator are applied.For example, the equation to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is F = C ? 1.8 + 32, where 32 is addedafter the From Value is multiplied by 1.8. In this case, the Offset would be 32.

About UOM Conversion SetA UOM Conversion Set is simply a group of UOM conversions. Each Security User will have a UOMConversion Set associated with it to determine how numeric values will be converted and displayed forthat user throughout the GE Digital APM systems. You can manage all the UOM Conversion Sets in yoursystem through the UOM Conversion Set workspace, where you can add, modify, and delete UOMConversion Sets.

UOM Conversion Sets are useful for customizing the display of numeric values for the users in yoursystem. Any numeric field can have a UOM defined for it to indicate the unit of measure for the storedvalue. The base (or stored) UOM, however, may not be appropriate for all users. For instance, some usersmay prefer to see a value that is stored in inches converted to and displayed as centimeters. Other usersmight prefer to see the same value converted to millimeters. You can allow for numeric values to beconverted to different display values for different users by defining UOM Conversion Sets.

To take advantage of this functionality, you will need to complete the following steps:

1. Define the necessary base UOMs. For example, Inches.2. For each base UOM, define all required UOM conversions. For example, for Inches, create two UOM

conversions, one for Centimeters and one for Millimeters.3. For each type of user, create an appropriate UOM Conversion Set. For example, we would create two

UOM Conversion Sets.

• Conversion Set A: From Inches To Centimeters• Conversion Set B: From Inches To Millimeters

Defines the different unit names for the units of measure for which you want to convert the value.

The names are separated by commas (for example, kilometers, kms).

From Unit Defines the units of measure for which you want to convert the value.

For example, if you want to convert the input value from kilometers to miles,kilometers is the From unit of measure.

Note:

• The value in the From Unit field should be unique for each unit group. You cannot add the same FromUnit field value that exists in another unit group.

• Previously, the letter ‘g’ was used in Pressure to represent standard gravity unit and in Weight torepresent gram unit. Now, the letters are differentiated by font: an Arial ‘g’ is used to representstandard gravity unit, and a Calibri ‘g’ is used to represent gram unit.

To Unit Aliases Defines the different unit names for the units of measure to which the value is converted.

The names are separated by commas (for example, miles, mi).

To Unit DisplayName

Defines the units of measure to which the value will be converted.

For example, if you want to convert the input value from kilometers to miles, miles isthe To unit of measure.

The selected name appears as a unit label for the converted value.

Expression Defines the mathematical formula that is used to convert the value.


Field Name Description

Precision Defines the number of digits that should appear after the decimal point of a value based on the followingoptions:

• None

Does not change the converted value.

If you do not select a precision value, by default, None is selected.• 0

Considers only the digits before the decimal point and omits the digits after thedecimal point.

For example, if the value is 2.91 and a precision '0’ is selected, 2 is the resultantvalue.

• 1 to 10

Indicates the number of digits to be considered after the decimal point,respectively.

Based on the specified precision, zeros are added at the end of the converted valueto make the number of digits after the decimal point of the converted value matchthe precision selected. For example, if the value is 2.92 and a precision '4' isselected, then 2.9200 is the resultant value.

Rounding Defines the type of approximation of a value based on the following options and the specified precision:

• None

Does not change the converted value.

If you do not select a rounding value, by default, None is selected.• Ceiling

Increases the value to the nearest number.

For example, if the value is 2.926 and the precision is set to 2, the value will beincreased to 2.93.

• Floor

Decreases the value to the nearest number.

For example, if the value is 2.926 and the precision is set to 2, the value will bedecreased to 2.92.
