PAPERLESS TAPE FUNCTION ®= Paperless Tape – Useful for checking figures, as it scrolls through your past 20 entries or calculations. Press ® = to access Paperless Tape mode. Press + or – to scroll forward or backward. Press = to exit mode and continue with a new entry or calculation. See example below. Paperless Tape Example Add 6 Feet, 5 Feet and 4 Feet, then access the paperless tape mode and scroll back through your entries. Then, back up one entry, exit the tape mode and add 10 Feet to the total.
PREFERENCE SETTINGS Press Ç, then ß, then keep pressing ß to toggle through the main settings. Press the + key to advance within subsetting. Use the – key to back up. Press o key to exit Preferences. PRESS Ç AND: SETTING--FUNCTION First press of ß: + + + + + + Fractional Resolution: --1/64 --1/2 --1/4 --1/8 --1/16 --1/32 --1/64 (repeats options) Second press of ß: + + + + Area Displays: --Std. --0. SQ FEET --0. SQ YD --0. SQ M --Std. (repeats options) Third press of ß: + + + + Volume Displays: --Std.
(Cont’d) Fifth press of ß: + + Meter Linear Displays: --0.000 M --FLOAt M (floating point) --0.000 M (repeats options) Sixth press of ß: + + Fractional Mode: --Std. --COnSt --Std. (repeats options) Note: Press o at anytime to exit the Preference Settings. FRACTIONAL SETTINGS Fractional Resolution is permanently set via the Preference Settings (see Preference Settings section for instructions). To select other formats temporarily (e.g., 1/64, 1/32, etc.
Note: Changing the Fractional Resolution on a displayed value does not alter your Permanent Fractional Resolution Setting. Pressing o will return your calculator to the permanently set Fractional Resolution. Setting Fractional Modes Standard Mode In Standard Mode, the fractional result is reduced to its lowest common denominator (i.e., 8/16 reduces to 1/2). Constant Mode In Constant Mode, fractional results remain in the defined accuracy level (e.g., 1/2 will be shown as 8/16).
USING EXPONENTIAL NOTATION Your calculator is defaulted to have exponential notation set to “on.” Therefore, any integer value exceeding seven digits will display in exponential format. When exponential notation is off, the calculator adjusts dimensioned values to a higher unit when the display limit is exceeded (known as Auto-Ranging); e.g., “20,000,000 mm” exceeds the seven-digit display, so “20,000 m” is displayed.

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 key (=). A. B. C. D. 3 3 3 3 + – x ÷ 2 2 2 2 = = = = 5. 1. 6. 1.5 This feature also makes the calculator simple to use for dimensional math. Adding or Subtracting Dimensions Examples: KEYSTROKES DISPLAY 1. Add 7 Feet 3-1/2 Inches to 11 Feet 4 Inches: 7f3i1/2+ 1 1 f 4 i = 18 FEET 7-1/2 INCH 2.
Multiplying or Dividing Dimensions Examples: KEYSTROKES DISPLAY 1. Multiply 5 Feet 3 Inches by 8 Feet 6-1/2 Inches: 5f3ix8f 6 i 1 / 2 = 44.84375 SQ FEET 2.

MEMORY OPERATION Whenever the n key is pressed, the displayed value will be added to the Memory. Other Memory functions: FUNCTION KEYSTROKES Add to Memory Subtract from Memory Recall total in Memory Display/Clear Memory Clear Memory n Çn ®n ®® Ç® Memory is semi-permanent, clearing only when you: 1) 2) 3) 4) turn off the calculator; press ® ®; press Ç ®; press Ç x (Clear All).
Using Memory Storage Keys (M0 - M9) In addition to the standard cumulative Memory (as previously described), your calculator has ten independent Storage Registers – M0 through M9 – that can be used to permanently store single, noncumulative values. The following example shows the use of M0 (ß 0). To use M1 through M9, replace the presses of the 0 key with presses of the corresponding number key (1 through 9).
USING THE ULTRA MEASURE MASTER ENTERING DIMENSIONS AND 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). numerator fraction bar denominator 3 — 16 For all other units of measurement, you can only enter whole numbers or decimal numbers.
