The output unit manager is used to specify the units of measurement for
00:07
simulation result variables and change them to units other than the defaults,
00:13
changes made in the output unit manager impact all outputs including graphs,
00:18
reports, labels contours and annotations.
00:23
In this exercise, you change the output units used for flow in the model
00:29
to begin.
00:29
Double click the desired project dot
00:32
ARX file to open Argi
00:34
Pro.
00:35
Once the project starts,
00:37
click the info water pro tab to open the info water pro ribbon
00:41
in the project panel, click initialize
00:45
in the model explorer on the command center tab,
00:48
expand the tools folder and then double click output unit manager to open it
00:54
in the output data units. List select flow
00:59
in the available flow units, list select MGD million gallons per day.
01:04
Click OK to save your changes and close the output unit manager.
01:09
Now select any pipe in the model
01:12
in the model explorer on the attribute tab, click graph. To open the report manager,
01:18
you can see that the flow in the graph is now displayed as MGD.
01:22
If you have existing graphs and reports that you want
01:24
to reflect your unit changes in the report manager,
01:27
click refresh for each graph or report
01:32
click hide to close the report manager.
