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






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.


8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 16

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.

ODE

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

F IXED M ODE

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 (“=”).

3 [–] 2 [=] 1

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.


8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 21

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.

Examples:

1) Add 7 feet 3-1/2 inches to 11 feet 4 inches:

5) Subtract 32 mm from 8 centimeters:

8 [cm] [–] 32 [mm] [=] 4.8

8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 22

Multiplying or Dividing Dimensions

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.

Memory Operation

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:

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). numerator fraction bar denominator

For all other units of measurement, you can only enter whole numbers or decimal numbers. You cannot enter combinations of units (for example, you cannot enter 12 meters 6 centimeters 4 millimeters).


8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 30

Linear Conversions

The Ultra Measure Master can convert between these linear dimensions:

◆ Meters ( M )

◆ Centimeters ( CM )

◆ Millimeters ( MM )

◆ Decimal Feet ( FEET )

◆ Feet-Inch-fraction ( FEET INCH )

◆ Decimal Inch ( INCH )

◆ Yards ( YD )

◆ Miles ( MI )

◆ Kilometers ( kM )

Note: The bold letters in parentheses indicate the annunciator that displays when the unit is selected.


8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 31

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,

[CONV] [mm] converts to millimeters.

PPENDIX

Accuracy/Errors

Accuracy/Display Capacity — Your calculator 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

“ E

RROR

.

” 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 “ E

RROR ”) — i.e.,

57 – User’s Guide

8015UG-E-B 7/31/03 3:43 PM Page 58

“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. WARNING:

Please use caution when disposing of your old batteries as they contain hazardous chemicals.
