Setting a base currency and exchange rates
Before you can make currency conversions, you need to choose a base currency (usually
your domestic currency) and add exchange rates.
Note: The rate of the base currency is always 1. The base currency determines the
conversion rates of the other currencies.
Example: If you set
the Finnish mark (FIM) as
the base currency, a Euro
is 5.94573 FIM. Thus, you
would write 5.94573 as
the exchange rate for the
Euro.
1 Select Currency as the measure type and select Options → Currency rates. A list of
currencies opens and you can see the current base currency at the top.
2 To change the base currency, scroll to the currency (usually your domestic currency),
and select Options → Set as base curr..
IMPORTANT: When you change the base currency, all previously set exchange
rates are set to 0 and you need to key in new rates.
3 Add exchange rates (see example), scroll to the currency, and key in a new rate, that is,
how many units of the currency equal one unit of the base currency you have selected.
4 After you have inserted all the needed exchange rates, you can make currency
conversions, see ’Converting units’, p. 100.
