Converter
This application allows you to make conversions
between different units of measure, which in-
clude: length, area, volume, mass, velocity, tem-
perature, power, energy, and currency.
The converter main screen shows two identical
lists containing the units that may be converted.
From this application, you can convert, for
example, inches to feet, inches to centimeters,
kilometers to miles, etc.
When you enter a number or quantity to be con-
verted, it appears at the bottom left of the screen
in the input field. The cursor will always be in the
input field. The result will appear to the right of
the original, in the result field (see Figure 11-4).
The darkened frames within the lists indicate the
specific measurement that is currently being
converted.
To make a conversion:
Press Conversion type to open a list of units
of measure. Select one of the units by scroll-
ing the list and press OK.
When the main view returns, scroll the selec-
tion frame in the original units list to the unit
you want to convert from. Change between
lists by pressing Change list.
ƒ Scroll the selection frame in the converted
units list (on the right) to the units you want
to convert to.
Enter the amount to be converted. Any
amount you enter will automatically appear
in the input field. The result will appear in the
result field.
Currency converter
If you select Currency as the quantity, the com-
mand Rates will appear. As there are no pre-set
exchange rates in the communicator, you will
have to set the base currency and the exchange
rate before you can use the currency converter.
Within the Rates screen, the Edit unit command
allows you to change the name of the currency.
To use the currency converter:
In the Currency conversion main view, press
Rates, then Base currency.
Scroll to the currency you would like to set as
the base currency and press OK.
ƒ The screen returns to the list of available cur-
rency units. Enter the exchange rates com-
pared to the base currency.
Press Close to return to the Currency conver-
sion main screen.
