Use Text Ring to Set Parameter; Need Reverse Text Ring to Read?

If you are just looking for the multiplier, just set that as the value for the ring.  Attached is a custom control I quickly made.  You can see that it is a ring control of type Double.  So the user will see "10uV", but the value attached to that string is 10e-6.  You can add more to the ring if you need to.

 

EDIT:  Just reread the whole thread.  It looks like Jeff has the solution you need.

Waiting for my test to get done so I'm playing around, please don't mind me here.  I made a little vi for you that converts your Sensitivity commands into a voltage, shows it in text (using crossrulz's control - which, as he mentioned, needs to be completed for the whole range), and then reverses the voltage back into sensitivity command... 

 

(Original poster has spent quite a bit of time in putting together all those case structures in his original VI so just showing yet another alternate way of doing it.)
