powerOne™ Infinity Softworks General Information This section helps you get started using your powerOne™ calculator. The powerOne™ calculator Welcome to the powerOne calculator. The powerOne calculator is a colorful and easy-to-use calculator that gives you access to both basic mathematics as well as more advanced functions. This special edition includes computations for sales tax, percent change, markup/discount, tip calculation, and calendar date computations.
powerOne™ The Palm™ Device This manual references certain objects of the Palm™ device itself: Applications button Menu button Power button (green button) In addition, this manual will refer to scroll arrows, scroll buttons, and scroll bars. Scroll arrows appear in the lower, right-hand corner of the screen or in the pop-up list.
powerOne™ Infinity Softworks Setting the Default Calculator The first time powerOne is run, it is set as the default calculator. In other words, once you run the application once, it will automatically set itself to run when the Calculator button is selected.
powerOne™ Infinity Softworks Performing Arithmetic The main powerOne calculator serves as a standard calculator, which functions in standard (algebraic) input mode. Entries made in the main calculator tie to the input screen, and vice-a-versa. Functions are available either on the screen or via the “math”...

powerOne™ To enter -356.96, for instance, do the following: Display C/CE . or , 356. 356.9 356.96 +/– -356.96 The decimal point can either be displayed as a period or as a comma. This depends on the number format mode used. See your Palm device owner’s manual for more details.
powerOne™ Mathematics (One- and Two-Variable Functions) The powerOne calculator can be used only in standard input mode. Standard input mode math is performed by alternating chains of values and operations. Math functions are either one or two variable. Two-variable math, such as add, subtract, multiply and divide, take two variables to compute.
powerOne™ The following are two-variable examples: Operation Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division Power Percent Percent ratio Percent add- Percent discount these functions are available by selecting the “Math” button. One-Variable Math The powerOne calculator provides many functions that can be used as one-variable math functions, including square root, x-squared, and reciprocal.
powerOne™ square root 2.83 The following are one-variable math examples: Operation Reciprocal Square Square root these functions are available by selecting the “Math” button. Memory The powerOne calculator has one memory location, plus the system clipboard. To access a memory location, use the store (M+), recall (MR), and clear (MC) functions.
powerOne™ application to another. Recall information from the system clipboard by selecting paste from the edit menu. Memory Arithmetic The powerOne calculator lets you easily add a string of subtotals together in the memory location. To do this, enter the computation and select M+.
powerOne™ information entered in the main screen is the same as information in the input screen. For example, if a computation is begun in the main screen, it can be completed in the input screen. For more information on the input screen, see the section on Using the Worksheets.
powerOne™ Using the Worksheets The powerOne™ calculator uses worksheets to perform advanced functions. This section details general use. See the section on each worksheet for details on that specific computation. Finally, see the appendix for information on errors. Accessing the Worksheets To access a worksheet, select the main screen button labeled “Business”...
powerOne™ The computation display for each worksheet is also similar. For most worksheets, the data is set in column form: Label column To enter a value, tap on the label or value column, enter it in the entry screen, and save. To compute a value, tap the “CPT” label next to the data to compute.
Page 17
powerOne™ When a value is selected, that value appears in the input screen. The keyed function buttons work similar to those in the main calculator. The only difference is memory, which is accessed by selecting the “mem” button and choosing the function from the pop-up list.
powerOne™ Sales Tax The sales tax worksheet computes tax before or after sales tax, or the tax rate itself. Before Tax: the amount before taxes. Tax Rate%: the tax rate as a percentage. After Tax: the amount after taxes. Example: The local tax rate is 5.5% You have a maximum of $70 to spend on clothing.
powerOne™ Calendar The calendar worksheet computes both days between dates and a date based on a given number of days. Date 1: the date to compute from. Date 2: the date to compute Difference: the difference in number of days. Example: Vacation begins on October 15, 1999.
powerOne™ Markup/Discount The markup/discount worksheet computes sales changes. Method: whether you are computing a markup or a discount. Orig Price: the original price of the product. Percent%: the percentage to markup or discount expressed as a percent. New Price: the new price of the product after the market or discount.
powerOne™ Percent Change This worksheet performs percentage change computations with either one or more compounding periods: Old: the old value. New: the new value. Change%: the percentage changed. For example, an 8.125% change would be entered as “8.125”. A positive value represents an increase while a negative one represents a decrease.

powerOne™ Infinity Softworks Compute the percent change by selecting “CPT” on the Change% line. Sales have increased 26.44% per year, comparing favorably to the 20% industry pace. Percent Change...
powerOne™ The tip calculator computes tip, total bills, and performs bill splitting functions. Bill: the bill amount before tip. Tip%: the tip percentage chosen from the pop-up list. Tip Amount: the tip amount. Total: the total amount including the tip. #People: the number of people paying for the meal.
Page 24
powerOne™ Example: At a team business lunch, your four person team (including you) goes to lunch. The total bill is $45. With a 15% tip, what should each person contribute? Entry Clear… Bill Tip% Compute the total per person (Ttl/Person) by selecting “CPT” on the same line.
powerOne™ Infinity Softworks Calculation Log The calculation log displays computations as they are entered, which makes double- checking easier. For standard input mode, the calculations are displayed as they are entered. To scroll the list, choose the scroll arrows or scroll buttons.
powerOne™ Appendix The appendix contains additional information pertinent to the use of the powerOne calculator. Graffiti® Input The powerOne calculator supports Graffiti® entry for both the main and input screens. To learn how to draw each character, see your Palm device user manual. Character Function Character...
powerOne™ Note that the Graffiti shift indicator is in the view window both on the main and input screens. Also, certain characters are not allowed. These keystrokes and their accompanying shift indicator are ignored. For instance, capital letters are not supported so the Graffiti shift indicator for shift or caps lock is not displayed.
