Help
The Help Feature is selected by pressing the Help button, which will display a mini-manual.
Use the alphanumeric buttons to select the topics, or use the Page Up/Down button or Up/Down arrows to
navigate through the help topics and descriptions.
Calculator
The Calculator function is selected by pressing the Help key twice. Use the Page Up / Down keys to move
through the pages.
All of the Calculator functions will do simple add, subtract, multiply, and divide operations. When one of the
functions is selected, a calculator window appears with the possible operations (LOAD, +, -, *, and /). LOAD is
initially highlighted, and the other options can be selected with the left and right cursor arrows. Numbers are
entered by typing them in and pressing the Write/Enter key. When a number is entered and LOAD is selected,
that number will be entered into the calculator window directly. When a number is entered when one of the
other functions (+ - * /) is selected, that calculation will be performed with the number just entered and any
number that was already in the calculator window. The calculator will also accept a mathematical expression
such as 23*4-5.2+6/2. It will evaluate it (doing multiplication and division first) and place the result, 89.8 in this
case, in the window.
Function Keys: The function keys can be used to copy and paste the calculated results into a section of a
program or into another area of the Calculator feature.
F3 In EDIT and MDI modes the F3 key will copy the highlighted triangle/circular milling/tapping value into the
data entry line at the bottom of the screen. This is useful when the calculated solution will be used in a pro-
gram.
In the Calculator function, pressing F3 copies the value in the calculator window to the highlighted data entry for
Trig, Circular or Milling/Tapping calculations.
F4 In the Calculator function, this button uses the highlighted Trig, Circular or Milling/Tapping data value to
load, add, subtract, multiply, or divide with the calculator.
Trigonometry Help Function
The Trigonometry calculator page will help solve a triangular problem. Enter the lengths and the angles of a
triangle and when enough data has been entered, the control will solve for the triangle and display the rest of
the values. Use the Cursor Up/Down buttons to select the value to be entered with WRITE. For inputs that have
more than one solution, entering the last data value a second time will cause the next possible solution to be
displayed.
