To measure the area of a rectangle:
1. Measure one side of the rectangle.
2. Press [shaft] and [+Wheel] to enter area mode. The display
now shows units of area, and the word "Area" appears on
screen. The [HOLD] function turns on; preserving the first me-
asurement while the wheel is moved to the next side of the
rectangle.
3. Press the [HOLD] button to re-enable measurement. Walk
along the next side of the rectangle. The Primary display now
shows measurement of the current side, and the secondary
display shows the measured area accumulating.
Please note:
• The secondary display does not show the contents of the me-
mory when in area mode.
• The second measurement must be taken at right angles (90
degree) from the first to obtain an accurate rectangular area.
• IInches cannot be displayed in area calculations. If the mea-
suring wheel has been set to inches and is then put into area
mode, the units for the secondary display will automatically
be changed to decimal feet (e.g. 2' 6" = 2.5feet).
AUTO POWER-OFF
After five minutes of inactivity, the digital wheel will 'power-
off'. However, the measurement in progress will be preserved,
and will resume when the digital wheel is turned on. Use of the
[HOLD] function is recommended to avoid disturbing the measu-
rement accidentally. If the digital wheel is turned off manually,
the measurement in progress will be cleared.
