1.2E–03 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2 σ 10–3. This means that you should move the decimal point in 1.2 three places to the left, because the exponent is negative. This results in the value 0.0012.

You can specify one of two different ranges for automatic changeover to normal display.

Norm 1 ...................

10–2

(0.01) > x, x 1010

Norm 2 ...................

10–9

(0.000000001) > x, x 1010

All of the examples in this manual show calculation results using Norm 1.

See page 2-11 for details on switching between Norm 1 and Norm 2.
