Unknown unit from Inhemeter meter prevents saving gxc file.

Hi,
After reading current association from iT30 Inhemeter meter, some objects seem to be invalid and I can't save the gxc file without first deleting them. (Trying to save results in the "There was an Error generating the XML document")
1.0.32.8.[0-8].255 for example, the Unit field is empty, and the last line in the gxc file is <Scaler>.
Looking at the log file, it appears that for several objects the meter returns Unit 0xFA, which to my knowledge doesn't exist in the standard.

Hi,

It's bad if your meter is using non-standard units, it might break the serialization. I'll add this to the work list. It might be that an invalid unit can't be saved to the XML, but at least the association view can be saved.

Thank you.
Yeah, it's less than stellar. I also noticed some other objects that are non-standard, like 1.0.83.49.0.255. Or 1.0.0.7.0.255 with Data IC instead of Register/Extended Register.

If it's of interest to you, I can send you the communication log and .gxc (after removing the unsaveable objects).
