Rolling a Measurement
To take a measurement with the Scale Master Classic:
1) Switch the unit on. Press [RESET] to clear
the display.
2) Select your type of scale by pressing the
[MODE] key. en press the [SCALE] key to
select your scale.
3) Begin rolling. e display will register your
measurements.
To ensure accurate measurements, be sure to
hold the unit upright and start and stop the
SMC at the exact points you are measuring.
4) Press the appropriate key if you want to store
this measurement (ex. [M1+] to store as
length, [M2x] to store as width).
5) Press
[RESET] to clear the display and begin a
new measurement.
Note: If the wheel is rolled anytime a value is
displayed due to a recall or a calculation, you
may notice a very slight delay before the current
measurement appears on the display. It is important
to note that this measurement includes the distance
rolled during the delay. is slight delay is to
minimize the accidental clearing of recalled and
calculated values from the display due to very slight
wheel movement.
