ni teststand 3.5 numeric limits properties

Hello! I have a test step with the numerical limits -0.3 and 0.5. Sometimes the DMM 4 wires measures 0.50007 for example and the test result is FAIL.I don't need this precision. I want to take into consideration only 2 digits after the comma, in order not to make the test step failed. So if the DMM measures 0.501xx to 0.509xx, the test must be PASSED. Can I make it with the option Units set to hecto(h) 10e2?If so, is there an option to make this change for all test steps at once?

There is no option to compare to a particular precision. TestStand compares to the precision of a double-precision IEEE floating point number. Why not just set the upper bound to 0.509?
