mode is used to select a
desired fraction result.
Triangle Keys
Pitch
Pitch
is used to calculate the pitch (slope)
of a right triangle. Once pitch entered
continued pressing of pitch key will cycle
through Angle, Rise and Ratio.
Run
Run
is used to enter or calculate.
To calculate the run, you must enter any
two of the following: rise, pitch, diagonal
(length).
Rise
Rise
is used to enter or calculate.
To calculate the rise, you must enter any

Diagonal
/Length is used to enter or
calculate. To calculate the diagonal/length,
you must enter any two of the following:
Rise, Run, Pitch.
Diag
2ND

is used to figure stud lengths
in a raked wall. Given pitch, rise and/or
run continuous pressing of Rake function
will show descending stud lengths.
H/V
