Introducing QUIKRULER
Congratulations for purchasing the GTCO
QuikRuler. QuikRuler is a portable measuring
system that is perfect for estimators, builders,
contractors, surveyors, scientists, planners,
designers, appraisers, and anyone else who
needs to take measurements from blueprints,
maps, diagrams, and other drawings.
With QuikRuler, you can quickly measure areas,
perimeters, and lengths, using any scale and
unit of measure. You can perform more complex
measurements by adding or subtracting areas
and lengths. The built-in measurement functions,
combined with QuikRuler's calculator, make
QuikRuler an indispensable tool. And with the
optional PC interface, you can send results
directly from the QuikRuler display to your PC,
for use in a spreadsheet or estimating package.
Introduction
Best of all, you don't need any special
experience or training to use QuikRuler. Simply
select an option from the QuikRuler menu, touch
the stylus or cursor to the drawing, and read the
result on the QuikRuler display.

measurements to be displayed.
Identifying the Unit of Measure
Use the function to identify the units in
which you want measurements to be displayed.
(See the next sections for details about setting
the scale of measurements.)
For example, suppose you are working with a
map where 1 centimeter on the map represents
3 kilometers. You would first use to
tell QuikRuler that you want to measure your
drawing in centimeters and display the result in
kilometers. You would then use to set
a 1:3 scale.
Note: You can also select at any time
to convert the current measurement, shown on
the second line of the display, to a different unit
of measure.
16
GTCO
To set the units:
• Select
• QuikRuler displays:
Measured (cm)
Displayed (km)
where, from the previsous example,
centimeters are the units you want to measure
from your drawing and kilometers are the units
you want to display. The flashing cursor
follows the unit that may be changed.
• Select repeatedly or use
and until you see the units you
want to use:
mm in
cm ft
Scale/Units
m yd
km mi
• Select or select another function.

If you know the scale of the drawing you are
working with, you can enter the measurement
scale manually:
• Use to select the unit of measure for
the first part of the scale. For example, if 1
centimeter equals 3 kilometers, select cm as
QuikRuler
17
the unit of measure and km as the displayed
unit. For more information, see "Setting Units"
earlier.
• Select
Scale/Units
• QuikRuler displays Scale cm:km on line 1,
where cm is the current unit of measure and
km is the current displayed unit as selected in
the function.
• QuikRuler displays the current scale setting on
line 2. For example, if the current scale is 1cm
= 3km, QuikRuler displays 1:3 on line 2 with
the flashing cursor positioned over the 3.
• Change the scale by selecting a number on
the QuikRuler menu. For example, select
if the desired scale is 1cm = 5km.
• If the drawing scale is larger than 1:1, use a
decimal value. For example, if the scale is 5:1,
divide both sides of the ratio by 5 and select
so that the scale reads 1:.2
• If the drawing scale is given as 1/8 in=1 ft, for
example, multiply both sides of the equation
by 8 so that 1 in = 8 ft and select so that
the QuikRuler scale reads 1:8.
• Select or select another function.
