I have just encoded a raft ( 23 ) of programs using the DM42 programming tool. Each is terminated by an END statement. On the DM42, a file like this could be loaded into calculator memory with all the programs being loaded at once. However, if seems the DM41X only loads the first program it finds in...

I understand the thrill to use a new toy but, if you are not fully familiar with the 41, may I suggest a thorough read of the manuals? It was an interesting read 40+ years ago, and probably today too: they are very well written and expose each peculiarity of the machine. Then, asking for difference...

Press R/S inside CAT 2. Then to view the contents of the module header shown press ENTER. You can use R/S to start and stop the rolling display, SST/BST when stopped to single step in the catalog. You may want to consult the Games application pac manual. There are scans available as pdf and similar...

Aren't they supposed to show up in CATALOG 2 ?

Aha! I can see 'GAMES 1A' listed under CATALOG 2. I guess that's progress.

Okay, stumped again. What do I do now?

I am new to this 'module' idea. There is a tiny bit about them in the DM41X Quick Reference guide, but I still don't understand how they are supposed to work. I assume each module is a suite of programs, but how do I get access to them? I have managed to add the GAMES module into 'Page 8 bank1' but ...

So exciting!
I love the keyboard already. Excellent haptic feedback combined with that snappy 'click' sound. The bolder font than the DM42 makes the keys easier to read too.

Now, time to upload all my HP41CV programs! Fun fun fun .... B-)

The 42S is compatible with the 41C at the user code level for the standard 41 instruction set so the DM42 encoder/decoder should work for most, if not all, of your HP41CV programs. The differences are described in the HP-42S User's Manual, section 11 "Using HP-41 programs". Otherwise ther...

Where did the DM42 encoder/decoder web page go?

I found it here: https://technical.swissmicros.com/dm42/decoder/

Fantastic! Thank you.

I just ordered my DM41X - I can't wait. Is there a DM41X encoder/decoder similar to the DM42 encoder/decoder that ( used to !? ) exist? I have a bunch of HP41CV programs that I've actually keyed into text files as a kind of backup. It'd be great if I could encode these and upload them into the DM41X.
