  9.  Metric Conversion Calculations
  You can convert values from one unit of measurement to another. Measurement units are 
classified according to the following 11 categories. The indicators in the “Display Name” 
column show the text that appears in the calculator’s function menu. 
Important!
Metric conversion commands are supported only when the Metric Conversion add-in 
application is installed. 
 Display Name   Category  Display Name   Category  Display Name   Category 
 LENGTH  Length  TMPR  Temperature  PRESSURE  Pressure 
 AREA  Area  VELOCITY  Velocity  ENERGY  Energy/Work 
 VOLUME  Volume  MASS  Mass  POWER  Power 
 TIME  Time  FORCE  Force/Weight 
  You can convert from any unit in a category to any other unit in the same category. 
  • Attempting to convert from a unit in one category (such as “AREA”) to a unit in another 
category (such as “TIME”) results in a Conversion ERROR.
  • See the “Unit Conversion Command List” (page 2-60) for information about the units included 
in each category.
