Explanation
The UnitMode sets the units of measurement used to set the scanning area. The default value is vikScanInch. This property is enabled when the UiMode is vikScanNONUI. The RectLeft, RectTop, RectRight, and RectBottom property values will use the unit of measurement set in the UnitMode property. When the UnitFlag property is 0, the scan device must support the unit of measurement set in the UnitMode property.
Although the UnitMode property is disabled when the UiMode is NOT vikScanNONUI, when scanning, the units of measurement of the scan are returned to this property. To retrieve the values of the UnitMode property supported by the scan device, execute the GetCapEnumToFloat method.
Setting this value

Retrieving this value

Differences between the ImageKit7/8/9/10
In VCL the constants contain a "v". In ActiveX, the constants are: ikScanInch, ikScanCM, ikScanPica, ikScanPoint, ikScanTwip, ikScanPixel, ikScanMillimeters
The parameter name vikScanMillimeters has been changed to vikScanMillimeter
