- 
-You can set how you want to acknowledge the receipt of a measurement value under **Feedback**. This acknowledgement controls the LEDs on the transmitter. Depending on the setting selected (**green LED**, **red LED**, **red & green LED**), as soon as the virtual Keyboard has processed the measurement value the green, red, or green & red LEDs light up.

-The information is collated in the **Format** field. The example above contains the measurement value and a terminator character, Return (ASCII 13). You can also add additional characters. Non-displayable characters are shown as hexadecimals in chevron brackets. In this example <x0D> represents Return. Additional placeholders are listed in which you can create output text, for instance to move from one cell to the next in an Excel table.  ​ 
-\\  
-\\  
-You can change the decimal separator in the **Change decimal separator**. Measurement values often use a decimal point. However, in Germany language Excel documents a comma is used as decimal separator. ​ 
-\\  
-\\  
-Often measurement data is transmitted with leading zeros and plus signs. You can decide whether to keep or remove these characters in **Measurement value options**. ​
