As most of you already
know, the Jobber 6 is the most advanced construction calculator on
the market. However, after attending numerous trade shows with people
who already own a Jobber 6 and many phone conversations, it became
apparent that a large majority of Jobber 6 users only use about 20%
to 30% of the calculator's potential. I can't tell you how many times
we have heard the line "I never knew it did that".
The purpose of this tutorial
is designed to help you to become more acquainted with your Jobber
6 calculator. It consists of 18 lessons of the most commonly used
tasks (see list below) as well just getting acquainted with the special
0-15 keyboard.
With the tutorial, learn
how to:
input dimensions using the 0-15 keypad
perform basic math
access the 6 dimensional format modes
solve triangles
solve Circles & Segmental functions
