In this case, the unit with the value ‘mar’ does not exist in Merlin.
⚠️ There are several types of errors, and not all errors relate solely to the unit each time. ⚠️
To correct this error, you will need to change its unit to the corresponding unit in Merlin.
If you do not wish to change the value of your unit, you can add this value as an alias to the corresponding value in the settings.

Once the errors have been corrected, the page will refresh automatically to indicate that there are no more errors in your measurements and that you can proceed to the next step.
