Sorry for a newbie question.
The DM15L I have is running firmware v2.2.
According to references available, "g SF 8" should put the calculator into complex calculating mode. But I only get error code "ERROR 10".
"f i" doesn't do it either.
Is there something I'm missing?
[DM15] Can't enter complex mode
Re: [DM15] Can't enter complex mode
If you look on the back of the DM15L you'll see that "ERROR 10" means "DIM > MEM", or more generally, not enough memory.
Switching to complex mode requires an additional 5 registers to mirror the stack. Do you have this memory free?
Hit "g MEM" (on the RCL button) and tell us what you see then, including the "A:# B:#...." at the bottom of the screen (that's the size of the 5 matrices that can be stored in the DM15L.

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who do not.

@grsbanks:
Thanks for jumping in.
My DM15L shows:
"19 -44 234-7
A:0 B:0 C:0 D:0 E:21"
Not sure why the second number on the first row is a negative 44.
Acting on your info ("...essentially, it has something to do with the memory..."), I found out what the keystrokes for a global reset are, executed them, and now MEM shows
"19 211 0-0
A:0 B:0 C:0 D:0 E:0"
And now "g SF 8" works as it should.
Next steps: learn to use the complex number functionality.
Thank you.
