T
he ConstruCtion Master Plus EZ (CMP EZ) is the newest in
Calculated Industries′ line of award-winning Construction Master
construction-math calculators. The big difference between the CMP
EZ and the other models is that, in addition to many more built-in
calculations, the CMP EZ is a Prompting Calculator.
With a Prompting Calculator, you select a function and then
scroll through a series of prompts for quantities, measurements,
placement, materials and other possible inputs. After entering the
inputs, you can then scroll through all the available calculations
and solutions. You can also change an input (or multiple inputs)
and then re-solve the problem, instantly seeing how the new entry
changes calculations without having to re-enter the entire problem.
1

Within a prompting input sequence, pressing once clears
the entry and leaves the prompt displayed. Pressing twice
exits the prompt function, but does not clear non-permanent
values. A third press clears non-permanent values.
Within an output sequence, pressing once exits the prompt
function, but does not clear non-permanent values. Pressing
twice clears non-permanent values.
o
Off – Turns all power off. Clears all non-permanent memory.

Using the Construction Master Plus EZ
This Pocket Reference Guide has step-by-step keystroked examples for
some of the CMP EZ’s functions. You can see, and download, a complete
illustrated User’s Guide with examples for all of the CMP EZ’s functions at
www.calculated.com/4067/UG.
The
ConstruCtion Master Plus EZ is a Prompting Calculator. To use it
you simply select a function and then scroll through a series of prompts
for quantities, measurements, placement, materials and other possible
inputs. After entering the inputs, you can then scroll through all the available
calculations and solutions. You can also change an input (or multiple inputs)
and then re-solve the problem, instantly seeing how the new entry changes
calculations without having to re-enter the entire problem.
You can also use the
Ce
(Solve)
function to skip any remaining
input prompts and go directly to the solution.
15
Auto Shut-Off and Auto Shutdown
The LCD display on your calculator is designed to shut off after 4 minutes
of non-use. If the display powers off, just press the
O
key to power it
back on. All values are maintained. Your most recent entry will be displayed
and you can scroll through or continue to enter values for the same
calculation you were working on before the display shut off. After 4 hours
of non-use, the calculator will shut down and all temporary settings and
values are cleared.
U.S. and Metric Modes
The
ConstruCtion Master Plus EZ can be used in either U.S. Mode (the
calculator’s default setting), which uses inches, or Metric Mode, which uses
millimeters, as a basis for entries and calculations. To change the Mode,
go to Preferences, using the Extras function (
CN
). For keystroked
examples on changing and setting Preferences, see the User’s Guide.
