      ANSYS solver uses the units defined in the Analysis Data Management. Go to Analysis Settings > Analysis Data Management and see the Solver Units. ‘Solver units’ can be set to Manual or Active System. If the Solver Units set to Active System, command object uses the units define as Active system on the top of the command snippet. If the ‘Solver Units’ set to Manual, commands are interpreted using ‘Manual’ units and does not use Active System defined in the command snippet.
