When the Readout is in 1/16 or 1/32 inch fraction mode,
a series of “bars” may appear in the upper right corner of
the LCD. Each bar
represents 1/64th of an inch. (i.e. when in 1/16 fraction
mode and three bars appear, the measurement displayed is rounded
down
to
the closest 1/16 inch, plus each illuminated bar represents an additional 1/64 of
an inch, for an actual fractional measurement of 7/64ths of an inch.) For better
resolution, switch to 1/32 or 1/64 mode. Or better yet, to decimal Inches.
In Fractions mode, when the measurement is greater than
99 63/64 inches, +100 and/or +200 will illuminate in the upper right portion of
the LCD to indicate this amount must be added to the displayed reading. (i.e.: If
the measurement is 154 5/8 inches, 54 5/8 and +100 will appear on the LCD, If
the measurement is -307 23/64 inches, - 7 23/64, +100 and +200 will appear on
the LCD.
