Set a base currency and exchange rates

Before you can convert currency, you need to choose a base currency
(usually your domestic currency) and add exchange rates.

The rate of the base currency is always 1. The base currency determines
the conversion rates of the other currencies.

1. Select

Currency

as the measurement type, and select

Options

>

Currency rates

.

2. To change the base currency, scroll to the currency (usually your

domestic currency), and select

Options

>

Set as base currency

.

3. Add exchange rates, scroll to the currency, and enter a new rate, that

is, how many units of the currency equal one unit of the base
currency you selected.

4. After you insert all the required exchange rates, you can convert

currency.

Note: When you change base currency, you must enter new exchange
rates because all previously set exchange rates are cleared.
