MEMORY FUNCTIONS
Whenever the [M+] is depressed, the displayed
value will be added to the semi-permanent
Memory. To subtract a value from the Memory,
simply precede [M+] with [Conv] [–] (ex. 10
[Conv] [–] [M+]).
[Rcl] [M+] recalls and displays the total value
stored in Memory. [Rcl] [Rcl] displays and clears
all values stored in Memory without clearing the
display. Turning your calculator [Off] will also
clear the Memory.
The Memory works with dimensioned numbers
as well as non-dimensioned numbers. Conven-
tion must be followed when using dimensioned
numbers. This means that you can add or sub-
tract any linear dimensioned number, such as
feet to or from yards, or to or from inches to
meters. You cannot add or subtract a linear di-
mensioned number to or from a square or cubic
dimensioned number. Of course any squared
number can be added or subtracted to or from
another. This is also true of cubed numbers.
Finally, the Memory function will always
convert the total dimension into the units of the
first dimension entered.
When there is a value other than 0 in the Mem-
ory, a small “M” will appear on the left side of
the LCD read-out.
