Fractional Settings

When your calculator is in a default condition (battery change or full reset), it is set to round fractional values to the nearest 1/64th of an inch. However, you may program your preference for six different accuracy levels and two different modes (Normal and Fixed), all of which remain in permanent memory until revised or reset. The fractional level can be revised by using [CONV] as shown below:

[CONV] 1 = Fraction Set to 1/16

[CONV] 2 = Fraction Set to 1/2

[CONV] 3 = Fraction Set to 1/32

[CONV] 4 = Fraction Set to 1/4

[CONV] 6 = Fraction Set to 1/64

[CONV] 8 = Fraction Set to 1/8

If there is a value in the display, the accuracy level will be temporarily revised. If the display is cleared, then the accuracy will be permanently revised.

User’s Guide – 15

Preference Feature

The Ultra Measure Master provides Preference Settings that allow you to set fractional accuracy and display features. The preference settings are displayed using [Rcl] [/]. Repeated presses of [/] toggle through the different settings while the [+] and [–] keys are used for revision. These settings remain set until they are changed or the calculator is reset.

FRACTIONAL ACCURACY SETTINGS

◆ Fraction Set to 1/64 (Default)

◆ Fraction Set to 1/2

◆ Fraction Set to 1/4

◆ Fraction Set to 1/8

◆ Fraction Set to 1/16

◆ Fraction Set to 1/32

FRACTION MODES

◆ Normal Mode (Default)

◆ Fixed Mode

EXPONENT

◆ On (Default)

◆ Off

FLASHING FRACTION

◆ Off (Default)

◆ On

Whenever the fractional setting is other than 1/64 normal mode, a star (★) will appear in the bottom left of the display when the calculator is turned on. This indicates a special fractional setting is stored within.

Setting Fractional Modes

NORMAL MODE

In Normal Mode, the fractional result is reduced to its lowest common denominator (i.e., 8/16 reduces to 1/2).

IXED MODE

In Fixed Mode, fractional results are left in the defined accuracy level (i.e., 8/16 will be shown as 8/16). Entries of higher accuracy values will temporarily override the fixed fraction setting.

Using Exponential Notation

Your calculator is defaulted to have exponential notation set to “on.” Therefore, any integer value exceeding 7 digits will display in exponential format. When exponential notation is deactivated, the calculator adjusts dimensioned values to the next higher unit when the display limit is exceeded (known as Auto-Ranging). i.e., “10,000,000 mm” exceeds the 7-digit display, so “10,000 m” is displayed. This auto-ranging also applies to other dimensional units, such as inches to feet, feet to yards, etc.

Setting Flashing Denominator

Your calculator can be set to flash the fractional denominator while fractions are entered. The flashing denominator displays the fractional accuracy level setting.

Basic Math Operations

Your calculator uses standard chaining logic which simply means that you enter your first value, the operator (+, –, x, ÷), the second value and then the equals sign (“=”).

A. 3 [+] 2 [=] 5 B. 3 [–] 2 [=] 1 C. 3 [x] 2 [=] 6 D. 3 [÷] 2 [=] 1.5

This feature also makes the calculator simple to use for dimensional math.

Adding or Subtracting Dimensions

1) You can add or subtract two numbers when the first value entered is labeled with units of measurement and the other is just a whole number (no units of measurement).

2) You can add or subtract numbers whose units of measurement are within the same convention. For example, you can add or subtract kg and pounds).

3) You cannot add or subtract two numbers of different conventions, except for weight and volume.
