INFORMATION

Key Definitions
[Off/On] – Power On/Off switch
Turn power On or Off. Turning power Off clears the display and all values previously stored in Mem­ory. Turning the unit Off does not clear scales or modes.
[Lock] – Lock switch
Locks the mode and scale so that they cannot inadvertently be changed. It is advised to operate in the locked position unless you are specifically setting or changing scales.
[Set] – Set key
Used to enter a value or to place the unit into a programming mode. If already in a programming mode, [Set] will store the displayed value and exit the programming mode.
[Sub] – Subtract key
Used to toggle the measuring mode between positive and negative di­rection. While in the negative direc­tion, rolling the unit will subtract the rolled distance from any previously rolled distances or from zero. When
4 – Scale Master®II v2.0
[Sub] is pressed simultaneously with [Count], [+K] or [M+], the unit will
subtract the appropriate value.
[Count] – Count key
Used to increase the Count value by one. Count is active in all modes. Pressing [Reset]and [Count]simulta­neously will clear the count.
[+K] – Constant key
Used to add a pre-set “constant” value to the displayed measured value. To set a constant value, you press [Set] [+K] to place the unit in programming mode.
[Rcl] – Recall key
Used to recall stored values. When you press [Rcl] [Rcl], the last value rolled is displayed.
[Mode] – Mode key
Used to cycle through the following scale modes (in sequence):
1) Architectural (
ARCH);
2) Engineering 1 (ENG 1)
3) Engineering 2 (ENG 2);
4) Map (MAP);
5) Custom (CUSTOM).
User’s Guide – 5
When in programming mode, this key moves the cursor back to the previous item programmed.
[Scale] – Scale key
Used to cycle through the various scales within each scale mode. When in the programming mode, this key moves the cursor forward to the next item to be programmed.
[M+] – Memory key
Used to add and store a displayed value into Memory. When pressed, the value is added to memory, the display is cleared to “0,” and the in­dicator “M” lights. When in pro­gramming mode, this key advances the flashing digit or units by one.
[Length] – Length key
Used to store a value in the Length register or recall the current value stored in the Length register.
[Width] – Width key
Used to store a value in the Width register, or recall the current value stored in the Width register.
6 – Scale Master®II v2.0
[Sq/Cu] – Area/Volume key
Used to set or view height and calculate area and volume:
1) The first press of this key calcu­lates and displays the area us­ing values stored in the Length and Width registers.
2) The second press calculates and displays the volume using Length, Width and Height.
3) The third press displays the value stored as Height.
When you press [Set] [Sq/Cu], you can set a fixed height. While you are in the programming mode, pressing [Set] will store the value as height and return the unit to nor­mal operation.
[Reset]
Used to reset the display. When pressed simultaneously with another key, it clears the value of that key (i.e., [Reset] [Length] clears the value stored in the Length register).

Adjusting the Wheel
The Celcon®polymer wheel can be ad­justed for each user’s preference. To adjust the wheel, take a small, flat-head jeweler’s screwdriver and slightly ro­tate the screw located near the wheel tip. Rotating the screw about 1/4 to 1/3 turn should be sufficient. Rotating the screw within those two values should adjust the wheel between free spinning (which is too loose) to skid­ding (which is too tight).

Imperial/Metric Modes
The Scale Master II is set up to use Imperial (English) dimensional units by default. The Scale Master II can be set up to use Metric scales by using the following sequence:
1) Turn unit off via switch.
2) Press and hold [SUB] key.
3) Turn unit on via switch.
4) Release [SUB] key.
While in Metric mode, MET will re­main lit in the scale box.
Repeat the procedure above to switch back to Imperial mode.

“Rolling” a Measurement
To take a measurement with the Scale Master II:
1) Switch the unit on. If the display does not show zero (0), press the
[Reset] key to clear the display.
2) Select your type of scale by press­ing the [Mode] key. Then press the
[Scale] key to select your scale.
3) Begin rolling. The display will reg­ister your measurements. When you roll the unit, be sure to hold the unit upright (see picture 1 - next page).
Also make sure you start and stop at the exact points you are measur­ing. Otherwise your roll may not be accurate (see picture 2).
4) To store your measurement, press the appropriate key (ex. [Length] to label as length, [Width] to label as width, etc).
5) Press [Reset] to reset the unit and begin a new measurement.

Note: See “Imperial/Metric Modes” for in-
structions on how to change from Imperial and Metric settings.
Changing Measurement Units
A) Press [Sub] and [Scale] simultane-
ously to toggle between Feet-Inch and Decimal Feet format (Imperial [English] Mode only).
User’s Guide – 13
You can also convert values from Imperial Units (English) to Metric Units within the Imperial mode.
B) Press [Set] [Mode] and continue
pressing [Mode] to cycle through available units of measurement.
Converting Between Scales
The Scale Master II can automatically convert values between scales. For ex­ample, 20 feet rolled in 1/16” scale will be converted to 10 feet in 1/8” scale. You may want to roll a value in one scale and then add that exact value (unconverted) in another scale.
1) Roll a value and press the Memory key [M+]. Change scales.
2) Roll another value and press [M+].
3) Press [Rcl] [M+] to recall the com­bined total.
