[ODE] Books on ODE and units

They should be analogous to the SI system, shouldn't they?

Don't remember if CGS or other systems can be mapped from SI by just scaling
the values [divide/multiply] (esp. force units when compared with distance
units in the two systems)

The units are whatever you want them to be, as long as they are internally
consistent. This is mentioned in the documentation. I suggest that you read
the manual from cover to cover if you are new with ODE, before you actually
write any code.
