Setting a base currency and exchange
rates
Before you can make currency conversions, you need to
choose a base currency and add exchange rates.
Note:
The rate of the base currency is always 1. The
base currency determines the conversion rates of the
other currencies.

Select
Currency

Options
→
Currency rates
. A list of currencies opens and
you can see the current base currency at the top.
2
To change the base currency, scroll to the currency,
and select
Options
→
Set as base curr.
.
Note:
When you change the base currency, all
previously set exchange rates are set to
0
and you
need to key in new rates.

Add exchange rates (see example), scroll to the
currency, and key in a new rate, that is, how many
units of the currency equal one unit of the base
currency you have selected.

After you have inserted all the needed exchange rates,
you can make currency conversions, see ‘Converting
units’, p. 101.
Example:
If you set the Euro (EUR) as the base
currency, a United Kingdom Pound (GBP) is approx.
1.63575 EUR. Thus, you would write 1.63575 as the
exchange rate for the GBP.
