Dear GATERS:

I found there might be a bug in the Unit definition of  /gate/source/SOURCENAME/gps/centre .

When I use Unit "um"
/gate/source/beamsource/gps/centre 0 40000 0 um

GATE give me error as:

parameter value is not listed in the candidate List.
***** Illegal parameter (3)  *****
***** Command ignored *****




But if I change to Unit "mum":

/gate/source/beamsource/gps/centre 0 40000 0 mum


Gate can run, but with warning:
Warning from G4UnitDefinition::GetValueOf(mum). The unit mum does not exist in UnitsTable. Return Value = 0.

and my source is set at (0 ,0 ,0 ) point



Is this a little bug in Unit definition?
