Stupid? Fprmat and Precision question

Hallo!

I could imagine that this is a stupid question, but my
try and error method doesn't worked here.

In my program I have values like 1550.0001E-9 . Right now the
only working way to represent this value is to set the Format
and precision values to 7 digits and engineering notation.
The latter I want to have the values in either E-3, E-6 E-9
units. But then my value is diplayed as 1.5500001E-6, which
is of course correct.

Is there any way to diplay it like I want?

Francisco,
Try selecting SI Notation. It will give you automatically the standard order3 prefixes.
It you just want to display a number in any other way than provided by the Format&Pecission options you need to create a string indicator and format it as you please: you are then in full control.You need to do it in the diagram using the number-to-string functions.

Something you may want to look into is using UNITs with or without SI Notation.

Good luck!
