Key Operation

Press ! and then the key to perform the marked function.

Press a and then the key to perform the marked function.

# Alpha Lock

Normally, once you press a and then a key to input an alphabetic character, the keyboard reverts to its primary functions immediately.

If you press ! and then a, the keyboard locks in alpha input until you press a again.

Display

Use the function keys (1 to 6) to access the menus and commands in the menu bar along the bottom of the display screen. You can tell whether a menu bar item is a menu or a command by its appearance.

• Command (Example: )

Pressing a function key that corresponds to a menu bar command executes the command.

• Pull-up Menu (Example: )

Pressing a function key that corresponds to a pull-up menu opens the menu.

You can use either of the following two methods to select a command from a pull-up menu.

• Input the key to the left of the command on the pull-up menu.

• Use the f and c cursor keys to move the highlighting to the command you want, and then press w.

The symbol ' to the right of a command indicates that executing the command displays a submenu.

To cancel the pull-up menu without inputting the command, press i.

This calculator uses two types of display screens: a text screen and a graphic screen. The text screen can show 21 columns and 8 lines of characters, with the bottom line used for the function key menu. The graph screen uses an area that measures 127 (W)

× 63 (H) dots.

Text Screen Graph Screen

The contents of each type of screen are stored in independent memory areas.

Press u5(G

↔T) to switch between the graphic screen and text screen.

# The symbol ↑ in the upper left corner of a pullup menu indicates that there are more commands running off the top of the menu.

19990401

Use the cursor keys to scroll the menu contents to view the commands running off the top.

1-2-4

Display

The calculator normally displays values up to 10 digits long. Values that exceed this limit are automatically converted to and displayed in exponential format.

u How to interpret exponential format

1.2

E

+12 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2

× 10

12 . This means that you should move the decimal point in 1.2 twelve places to the right, because the exponent is positive. This results in the value 1,200,000,000,000.

1.2

E

–03 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2

× 10 –3 . This means that you should move the decimal point in 1.2 three places to the left, because the exponent is negative. This results in the value 0.0012.

You can specify one of two different ranges for automatic changeover to normal display.

Norm 1 .................. 10 –2 (0.01) > |x|, |x| > 10 10

Norm 2 .................. 10 –9 (0.000000001) > |x|, |x| > 10 10

All of the examples in this manual show calculation results using Norm 1.

See page 2-3-2 for details on switching between Norm 1 and Norm 2.

• In addition to the above, this calculator also uses other indicators or symbols, which are described in each applicable section of this manual as they come up.

Whenever the calculator is busy drawing a graph or executing a long, complex calculation or program, a black box “k” flashes in the upper right corner of the display. This black box tells you that the calculator is performing an internal operation.

Inputting and Editing Calculations

The last calculation performed is always stored into replay memory. You can recall the contents of the replay memory by pressing d or e.

If you press e, the calculation appears with the cursor at the beginning. Pressing d causes the calculation to appear with the cursor at the end. You can make changes in the calculation as you wish and then execute it again.

○ ○ ○ ○ ○

Example 1 To perform the following two calculations

4.12 × 6.4 = 26.368

After you press A, you can press f or c to recall previous calculations, in sequence from the newest to the oldest (Multi-Replay Function). Once you recall a calculation, you can use e and d to move the cursor around the calculation and make changes in it to create a new calculation.

○ ○ ○ ○ ○

Example 2

# Pressing !D(INS) changes the cursor to

‘‘_’’. The next function or value you input is overwritten at the location of ‘‘_’’. To abort this operation, press !D(INS) again.

# A calculation remains stored in replay memory until you perform another calculation or change modes.

# The contents of replay memory are not cleared when you press the A key, so you can recall a calculation and execute it even after performing the all clear operation.

1-8 When you keep having problems…

If you keep having problems when you are trying to perform operations, try the following before assuming that there is something wrong with the calculator.

1. From the Main Menu, enter the SYSTEM Mode.

2. Press 5(Reset).

3. Press 1(S/U), and then press w(Yes).

4. Press m to return to the Main Menu.

Now enter the correct mode and perform your calculation again, monitoring the results on the display.

• Should the unit hang up and stop responding to input from the keyboard, press the P button on the back of the calculator to reset the calculator to its initial defaults (see page

α-6-1). Note, however, that this may clear all the data in calculator memory.

When you keep having problems…

If either of the following messages appears on the display, immediately turn off the calculator and replace main batteries or the back up battery as instructed.

If you continue using the calculator without replacing main batteries, power will automatically turn off to protect memory contents. Once this happens, you will not be able to turn power back on, and there is the danger that memory contents will be corrupted or lost entirely.

# You will not be able to perform data communications operations after the low battery message appears.

# If main batteries and the back up battery go low at the same time (indicated when both of the messages described above appear), replace the back up battery first and then replace the main batteries.
