Implementation in Proteus Schema

LengthUnit is only used as the type of the Unit attribute of Length. Length is implemented using DEXPI generic attributes for physical quantities. In a <GenericAttribute> element, the LengthUnit literal is given by means of its RDL reference in the table above. The Units attribute of the element is the name of the RDL reference in camel-case; it equals the name of the literal. The UnitsURI attribute of the element is the URI of the RDL reference.

Example

Implementation in Proteus Schema

<GenericAttribute
  Units="Centimetre"
  UnitsURI="http://data.posccaesar.org/rdl/RDS1318004" ...>

Note that the <GenericAttribute> element must have further attributes (Format, Value, Name, and AttributeURI). See the implementation examples for Length and for the Diameter attribute of AgitatorRotor.
