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.

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
F
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.

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.
20 – Ultra Measure Master
®
4) The format of the first value you enter
determines the format of the answer.
However, you can use the [CONV] key
to change to any format desired, provided that you maintain convention.
1) You can multiply and divide 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 cannot multiply or divide two
numbers that have different units of
measurement or different conventions, except for weight and volume.
3) You can multiply and divide numbers
when their units of measurement are
within or between the linear and area
conventions. For example, you can
multiply kilometers by square feet,
which will give you cubic kilometers.
4) The format of the first value you enter
determines the format of the answer.
However, with the [CONV] key you
can change to any format you desire,
provided that you maintain convention.
The Ultra Measure Master has ten storage registers (0 through 9). Memory 0
is a cumulative memory which operates
similar to a standard [M+] key, while the
other memories are used for storage
only. A value can be stored in any format, but attempts to add mixed conventions will result in an error (the
value in memory will not be revised).
Memory 0 will keep its value until it is
revised (as shown below), or the calculator is shut off. Memories [1] through
[9] will keep their values even when
the calculator is shut off. Keystrokes for
operation are as follows:
The memory function can also be used
with dimensional units that are of the
same convention (linear, area, volume,
etc.). If you try to enter numbers of different conventions, “error” displays.

Entering Dimensions & Units
When entering feet-inch dimensional
values, you must enter the largest dimension first — feet before inches, inches
before fractions. To enter fractions of
an inch, enter the numerator (value
above the line), press [/] (fraction bar
key) and then enter the denominator
(value below the line).

The following examples show how linear dimensions are entered:
Any units of measurement other than
inches must be entered as whole values
(5 yards) or decimal values (5.5 meters),
and not in combination with feet and
inches or with themselves. For example, you cannot enter 12 meters 6 centimeters 4 millimeters.
To convert a linear value on your display, press the [CONV] key, then the
key for the linear dimension to which
you want to convert. For example,

Linear Velocity Conversions
The Ultra Measur e Master can convert
between the following linear velocities:
◆ Feet per minute (FPM)
◆ Feet per seconds (FPS)
◆ Inch per second (IPS)
◆ Meters per minute (M/M)
◆ Meters per second (M/S)
◆ Millimeters per second (MM/S)
◆ Miles per hour (MPH)
◆ Kilometers per hour (KM/H)
Note: The letters in parentheses indicate the
annunciator associated with the unit.
To convert a linear velocity on your display, press the
[CONV] key and then the
keystrokes for the linear velocity to
convert it to.

APPENDIX
Accuracy/Errors
Accuracy/Display Capacity — Your cal-
culator has an eleven digit display. This
is made up of seven digits (normal display) and four digits for the fraction. In
a standard calculation, each calculation
is carried out internally to 10 digits and
rounded to a 7-digit standard display. A
5/4 rounding technique is used to add
1 to the least significant digit in the display if the next non-displayed digit is
five or more. If this digit is less than
five, no rounding occurs.
Errors — When you make an incorrect
entry, or the answer is beyond the calculator's ability, it displays the word
“ERROR.” To clear an error, press the
[On/C] button twice. At this point you
must determine what caused the error
and re-key the entry. An error also
occurs if you enter a mathematical
impossibility such as division by zero.
Auto-Range — If an “overflow” is created because of an input and calculation with small units that are out of the
standard 7-digit range of the display,
the answer will be automatically
expressed in the next larger units
(instead of showing “ERROR”) — i.e.,
57 – User’s Guide
“10,000,000 mm” cannot be displayed
because it is out of the 7-digit display,
so “10,000 m” will be displayed instead.
This auto-ranging also applies to other
dimensional units, such as inches to
feet, and feet to yards, etc.
Battery Information
Your calculator is powered by a single
3-Volt Lithium CR-2032 battery. This
should last upwards of 800 hours of
actual use (1 year plus for most users).
Should the display become very dim or
erratic, replace the battery.
Please use caution when disposing of your
old batteries as they contain hazardous
chemicals.
