Set a base currency and exchange rates

Before you can make currency conversions, you need to choose a base currency (usually your domestic currency) and add exchange rates. Note: The rate of the base currency is always 1. The base currency

determines the conversion rates of the other currencies. Example: If you set the Canadian Dollar (CAD) as the base currency, a US Dollar is .65. Thus, you would write .65 as the exchange rate for the US Dollar (USD).

1Select Currency as the measure type and select OptionsCurrency rates. A list of currencies opens and you can see the current base currency at the top.

2To change the base currency, scroll to the currency (usually your domestic currency), and select OptionsSet as base curr.

Important: When you change the base currency, all previously set exchange rates are set to 0 and you need to key in new rates.

3Add exchange rates (see example), scroll to the currency, and key in a new rate, that is, how many units of the currency equal one unit of the base currency you have selected.

4After you have inserted all the needed exchange rates, you can make currency conversions, see “Convert units” on page 113.
