ENTERING DIMENSIONS
Entering Linear Dimensions
When entering Feet-Inch-Fraction values, enter dimensions from
largest to smallest — e.g., Feet before Inches, and Inches before
Fractions. Enter Fractions by entering the numerator (top), pressing
/ (fraction bar key), and then the denominator (bottom).
Note: If a denominator is not entered, the fractional setting value is used.
