Page 3: Introducing The Dimension Master Plus
Introducing the ® Dimension Master Plus The Dimension Master Plus (v2.0) is a high-tech measuring tool that uses the latest in ultrasonic technology. This tapeless measure and calculator allows you to take quick and accurate measure- ments with the touch of a button. You can measure a single room in seconds or a whole building in minutes. -

“target” surface and returns to the unit as an echo. The Dimension Master Plus then determines how long the echo took to return and calculates a linear distance reading, while internally compensating for variables such as temperature. - Page 5 4 AAA Alkaline batteries are used to power the Dimension Master Plus. If a “lo batt” reading ap- pears on the display, the batteries need to be re- placed by removing the door on the back of the unit.

“none” or “Error” is displayed, depending on the measurement situation. The unit will also display “Error” if you make an incorrect entry, try to per- form invalid dimensional calculations (i.e., adding areas and volumes together) or the resulting answer is beyond the range of the calculator. “Error” will also appear if you enter a mathematical impossibil- ity, such as division by zero. - Page 8 [Sq] Square Key — Used with a dimension key (feet, inches, yards, meters) to label entry as an area or “square” value (e.g., 10 Square Feet). [ / ] Fraction Bar Key — Used to separate the nu- merator and denominator when entering frac- tions.

Page 16: How To Use The Dimension Master Plus
How to Use the Dimension Master Plus Taking Accurate Measurements Be sure to hold the Dimension Master Plus still and directly parallel to the target area while taking a measurement. The Dimension Master Plus may give an inaccurate reading or a none/error message if it is moved or held at an angle while you are at- tempting to take a measurement. - Page 17 Note: If the Dimension Master Plus is un- able to measure the distance, either the word “none” or “Error” (depending on the measurement situation) will appear on the display.

Page 18: Taking An Area Measurement
Taking an Area Measurement Measure the length of the room as described in steps 1-4 above. When the measurement is displayed, press [Length] to enter the value. Measure the width of the room. When the measurement is displayed, press [Width] to enter the value. Press [LxW] to display the area calculation. -
Page 19: Large Room Measurements
Note: Area and volume measurements can also be calculated by entering values manu- ally into [Length], [Width] and [Height]. Large Room Measurements If you want to measure a room beyond the 60-foot range, take two linear measurements. Stand in the center of the room and take one measurement in one direction. -
Page 20: Entering Dimensioned Values
Entering Dimensioned Values When entering dimensioned values, enter the larg- est dimension first; feet before inches, inches before fractions. Enter fractions by first entering the nu- merator (value above the line), then press the [/] key, then the denominator (value below the line). Note: The first valued dimension entered in a problem determines the format of the result. -

Do you have a question about the Dimension Master Plus and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
What is the setting for measuring room temperature?
The Dimension Master Plus does not have a specific setting for measuring room temperature. However, it uses automatic temperature compensation to ensure measurement accuracy within a temperature range of 32ºF to 100ºF (0ºC to 38ºC). If the internal temperature differs from the ambient temperature, you may compensate by adding or subtracting 1% of the measured distance for each 10ºF (5.5ºC) difference.
