GETTING STARTED
If you are familiar with simple hand-held
calculators, the INCHMATE+ keyboard looks
similar, with one exception: the 6 gray and green
keys are used to enter dimensions of Foot-inch-
Fraction (or fif). Detailed functional definitions
for these and other keys are found on pages 5 -
9. However, the best way to get to know your
INCHMATE+ is to start off by solving a simple
dimensioning Problem.
2'- 9 11/16" + 17'- 5 3/4" = ??
Turn INCHMATE+ on with the switch located to
the right of the label. The mode indicator in the
upper left corner of the display indicates it's in the
Foot-Inch-Fraction mode.
The blinking "FT" is prompting you to enter the
number of FEET in the first dimension.
Press:    and  
ENTER
  to move to the INCH
field.
The display shows the number of FEET and the
blinking "IN" is prompting you to enter INCHES:
