Appendix C of the HP-42S Owner's Manual only describes flags 31 and 67 as "reserved" for future use. Is there a more complete and updated catalog of the control flags (11 through 35) and system flags (36 through 80)? I seem to be the only person at the party who doesn't know what each flag signifies.
The HP-42S manual is a good reference, but Free42 uses a few flags that are unused on the real calculator. They are discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2506&p=16171#p16171
Excellent thread -- thank you for the pointer, Thomas, as well as for all that you do for the DM42.

I am very happy, that most of the HP-41CX time functions has been implemented in DM42, however, is there a reason as to why the alarm function XYZALM and stopwatch SW has not been included? Is it because it wouldn't work on Free42 for PC's?
