Basic formula functions
Basic functions calculate and display dimensions based on channel
inputs, other dimensions, arithmetic operators, math functions and
constants.
Typically, visible dimensions are used with basic functions to display
values, and hidden dimensions are used with a combination of basic
and advanced functions to perform operations.
Example:
A = 2*pi*sqrt(B)
This formula uses basic functions to assign a numeric value to visible
dimension A. This value is stored in the ND 2100G database when the
ENTER key is pressed or when a Trip function is executed.
