Coordinate System Definition

Specify a given coordinate system definition by double-clicking on the blue boxes in the Coordinate System area to bring up the pickers for each component of a system.  When you choose a coordinate system, it will automatically select the default Datum and Units for the System.  Alternately, you can right-click and select Info, to access the definition and history of the current selection.  

Raster

In Raster Jobs, you have the option of viewing the System, Datum, and Units:

 

When loading an elevation model, the coordinate system will also include a vertical unit.

Vector

In Vector Data conversion, the source coordinate system information will be read from the input data. The file type controls the formatting of the coordinates (typically decimal). Ensure the units and vertical units have been correctly interpreted.

In other vector Jobs (Point Database, Interactive Conversion, Seismic Survey, etc.) , you also have the option of altering the Unit Formatting using the Format button.

Time-Dependent

If you have enabled Time-Dependent Transformations, you will also have the option of setting a date in both systems.
