Entering values in feet and inches 32.3
When either US Survey Feet (US-Ft) or International Feet (I-Ft) is selected as the
distance unit, you can enter and display distances, HIs, HTs, and coordinate values
either in decimal feet, or in feet and inches For more information, see Unit,
page 139, and Others settings, page 140.
To enter values in feet and inches in an input screen, enter the elements, separated
by periods (.), in the following format:
[.] [.] [.] [ENT]
(0–11) (0–15) (0–99)
The default denominator is 16. If the denominator
is 16, you do not have to enter it, and it is not
displayed on the screen.
For example, if you enter
[2] [.] [0] [8] [.] [5] [.] [ENT], it appears as 2'08 5/ (2
feet, 8 and 5/16ths inches).
