Operating Instructions

Stopwatch

The stopwatch shows the hours (h), minutes (‘), seconds (‘’) and

hundredths of a second.

The stopwatch continues to run even when you leave the INFO

function. When the power is interrupted (switch-off), POSITIP

resets the stopwatch to zero.

Pocket calculator

The pocket calculator functions are spread over three soft key

rows:

• Basic arithmetic (first soft key row)

• Trigonometry (second row)

• Square root, x

2

, 1/x, p (third row)

Use the paging keys to go from one soft key row to the next.

POSITIP always shows an example entry — you don't have to

press the HELP key.

Transferring the calculated value

The calculated value remains in the input line even after you leave

the pocket calculator function.

This allows you to transfer the calculated value directly into a pro-

gram as a nominal position — without having to reenter it.
