Re: No issue; state file comment, and feature request

Other uses of the State FIle: Share your entire 41X machine setup with a friend or the community. :D Of course ... I also use it to keep the DM41L in sync with the DM41X. Very useful, since I can build my desired config on the "X", and when I am happy, load it into the "L" as we...

Re: TIME as shifted function of Alpha key

Use ASSIGN to assign the Time function to any key you like. Hmm ok ... not really what I had in mind, but I guess that will work. At least the DM41L and DM41X are consistent now (with TIME being on two keys in the DM41L): CLsigma: TIME ATAN: DATE Doesn't help much with finger memory, because of the...

TIME as shifted function of Alpha key

The DM41L has TIME as a shifted function above the Alpha key. That means I only had to "sacrifice" one key (CLsigma) to have DATE and TIME on the keyboard. For my purposes, that is extremely useful (many of my daily calculations involve 'now' or 'today'). Would it be possible to have TIME ...

No issue; state file comment, and feature request

No issue, just a comment ... the state file is a nice way to personalise your DM41X (or even to use different profiles, if you'd like). I saved the calculator state in a file with my initials and last name; now the status bar shows that, instead of the ugly message that no file is loaded. Possible f...

[DM41X] Sunny F16 rule

This program was tested on the DM41X, but should run on the DM41 as well (no additional modules required) A rough way to estimate exposure is the "Sunny F16" rule, which determines that the following works for a sunny day with a clear sky: ISO = 100 1/t = 100 F = 16 The following program ...

Re: DM41X Beta Programme

My figures for the DM41X: DM41X Fast mode on battery: 00:07.38 DM41X Fast mode with USB: 00:02.31 DM41X Slow mode: 01:34.19 So my unit seems to be slightly faster than yours. At least on this benchmark. And here is the DM41L, running at 48Hz: 01:16.46. I had expected it to be faster, to be honest.

Re: DM41 RAW file decoder

Thanks ... I just removed the RTN from my code. I cannot test right now if the additional instruction has also disappeared from the online decoded RAW file (not at a computer).

Re: DM41 RAW file decoder

Also, note that, unrelated to the issue you are reporting, you never need to include a RTN instruction just before the END, it's redundant. END acts as both a RTN (popping the stack, etc.) and also as end of program marker. Removing it doesn't save much memory, but if this is used everywhere, it co...

Re: DM41X Beta Programme

What type of category are you suggesting? Are you referring to a Forum category, or something on the 41X itself? I simply am not clear about what you are suggesting, sorry if I'm dense. I am talking about a forum tag (or other convention), e.g. for showing which addtional ROMs must be loaded for a ...

DM41 RAW file decoder

After having saved. and decoded, a RAW file from the DM41X, I notice something strange (RAW file attached): When I use the online decoder (http://dm41.swissmicros.com/) I get the following decoded file (showing the last few lines): X<0? 99999.999 ARCL X AVIEW STOP RTN END LN But when I use the hp41u...
