Fractional Settings
When your calculator is in a default
condition (battery change or full re s e t ) ,
it is set to round fractional values to the
n e a rest 1/64th of an inch. However,
you may program your pre f e rence for
six diff e rent accuracy levels and two
d i ff e rent modes (Normal and Fixed), all
of which remain in permanent memo-
ry until revised or reset.
The fractional level can be revised by
using [C O N V] 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 re v i s e d .

4 . Reset to default settings:

U s e r ’s Guide – 1 7
Setting Fractional Modes
NO R M A L MO D E
In Normal Mode, the fractional result is
reduced to its lowest common denominator (i.e., 8/16 reduces to 1/2).
FI X E D MO D E
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.”
T h e re f o re, 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 measure m e n t ) .
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
p o u n d s ) .
3 ) You cannot add or subtract two num-
bers of diff e rent conventions, except
for weight and volume.
