Chapter 1 Getting started This chapter is aimed at providing basic information in the operation of your calculator. The exercises are aimed at familiarizing yourself with the basic operations and settings before actually performing a calculation. Basic Operations The following exercises are aimed at getting you acquainted with the hardware of your calculator. Batteries The calculator uses 3 AAA batteries as main power and a CR2032 lithium battery for memory backup. Before usin

b. Insert a new CR2032 lithium battery. Make sure its positive (+) side is facing up. c. Replace the plate and push it to the original place. After installing the batteries, press [ON] to turn the power on. Warning: When the low battery icon is displayed, you need to replace the batteries as soon as possible. However, avoid removing the backup battery and main batteries at the same time to avoid data lost. Turning the calculator on and off The $ key is located at the lower left co

Press the !!@@OK#@ F soft menu key to return to normal display. Examples of selecting different calculator modes are shown next. Operating Mode The calculator offers two operating modes: the Algebraic mode, and the Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) mode. The default mode is the Algebraic mode (as indicated in the figure above), however, users of earlier HP calculators may be more familiar with the RPN mode. To select an operating mode, first open the CALCULATOR MODES input fo

different levels are referred to as the stack levels, i.e., stack level 1, stack level 2, etc. Basically, what RPN means is that, instead of writing an operation such as 3 + 2, in the calculator by using 3+2` we write first the operands, in the proper order, and then the operator, i.e., 3`2`+ As you enter the operands, they occupy different stack levels. Entering 3`puts the number 3 in stack level 1. Next, entering 2`pushes the 3 upwards to occupy stack level 2. Finall
