SHAPES AND DEFINITIONS
The Ultra Scale Master Pro can measure Polylines, Polygons, regular or irregular shapes, Arcs and Circles based on the
following criteria:
Defi nitions and illustrations of some common shapes: Solution examples follow in the User’s Guide:
POLYLINE:
A sequence
of connected
straight lines or
a single linear
distance like a
fence line
POLYGON:
A closed geometric fi gure bounded by three or more straight lines
1. Simple Polygon:
A Square, Rectangle
or Triangle
2. Complex Polygon:
A multi-sided shape
that is not a Square,
Rectangle or Triangle
• Only one shape can be measured at a time
• For a Polygon or Polyline only the last 64 measured sides
can be displayed when viewing side Lengths via the
D-Pad right [4] and left [3] arrows
• Arc measurements are assumed to be part of a Circle
• In Arc or Circle Mode, measurements of ellipses or
irregular Arcs will result in incorrect calculations; the
resulting values are based on the assumption that the
points measured apply to a segment of a Circle
• An Arc or three-point Circle greater than 180° can also
be measured
Note: The diagrams shown throughout the guide are not to scale and the displayed values are not representative of diagrams.
