Problem Topic
ACLRAT: Implicit DME default??

Problem Description
For ACLRAT/ and FEDRAT/, is there an implicit DME default for each of the ~var2~ params, which will be selected if no ~var3~ accel/vel value is specified (eg, does ACLRAT/MESACL,IPMM set the acceleration to a default value, or simply set units? If units only, then how is the acceleration value set)? Is 100% the default for PCENT when no percentage is specified?

Resolution

Warning!!

The following statement is only a resolution to a Standard Improvement Request (SIR) and is NOT part of the current DMIS standard, nor is it guaranteed to become part of the next revision of the DMIS standard even if voted and accepted by the DMIS National Standards Committee. This resolution is tentative because it may not be incorporated into the next version of the standard, it could be changed prior to the next release, or it could be changed as the result of the "public review and comment" period required for the next version of the standard. If you choose to use this tentative resolution, you do so at your own risk since at this time it is not part of the DMIS standard.

Resolution: The four SIRs (96-1, 97-3, 97-4, 97-17) are all concerned with the FEDRAT and ACLRAT major words and were grouped together with the following resolutions:
