ENTERING DIMENSIONS
Linear Dimensions
When entering Feet-Inch values, enter
dimensions from largest to smallest — Feet
before Inches, Inches before Fractions.
Enter Fractions by entering the numerator
(top number), pressing
/
(Fraction Bar
key) and then the denominator (bottom
number).
Note: If a denominator is not entered, the frac-
tional setting value is used.
