A separator symbol is displayed every three digits when the integer part of the mantissa has more than three digits. Before getting started... k Modes Before starting a calculation, you must first enter the correct mode as indicated in the table below. To perform this type of calculation: Basic arithmetic calculations Standard deviation Regression calculations Perform this To enter key operation: this mode: F1 F2 F3 COMP SD REG · Pressing the F key more than once displays additional setup screens. Setup screens are described in the sections of this manual where they are actually used to change the calculator setup. · In this manual, the name of the mode you need to enter in order to perform the calculations being described is indicated in the main title of each section. Example: Statistical Calculations SD REG E-7 Note! · To return the calculation mode and setup to the initial defaults shown below, press A B 2(Mode) =. Calculation Mode: Angle Unit: Exponential Display Format: Fraction Display Format: Decimal Point Character: COMP Deg Norm 1 a b/c Dot · Mode indicators appear in the upper part of the display. · Be sure to check the current calculation mode (SD, REG, COMP) and angle unit setting (Deg, Rad, Gra) before beginning a calculation. k Input Capacity · The memory area used for calculation input can hold 79 "steps." One step is taken up each time you press a number key or arithmetic operator key ( +, ,, -, \ ). A A or p key operation does not take up a step, so inputting A D, for example, takes up only one step. · You can input up to 79 steps for a single calculation. Whenever you input the 73rd step of any calculation, the cursor changes from "_" to "k" to let you know memory is running low. If you need to input more than 79 steps, you should divide your calculation into two or more parts. · Pressing the g key recalls the last result obtained, which you can use in a subsequent calculation. See "Answer Memory" for more information about using the g key. k Making Corrections During Input · Use e and r to move the cursor to the location you want. · Press [ to delete the number or function at the current cursor position. · Press A K to change to an insert cursor t. Inputting something while the insert cursor is on the display inserts the input at the insert cursor position. · Pressing A K, or = returns to the normal cursor from the insert cursor. E-8 k Replay Function · Every time you perform a calculation, the replay function stores the calculation formula and its result in replay memory. Pressing the [ key displays the formula and result of the calculation you last performed. Pressing [ again back steps sequentially (new-to-old) through past calculations. · Pressing the e or r key while a replay memory calculation is on the display changes to the editing screen. · Pressing the e or r key immediately after you finish a calculation displays the editing screen for that calculation. · Pressing t does not clear replay memory, so you can recall the last calculation even after you press t. · Replay memory capacity is 128 bytes for storage of both expressions and results. · Replay memory is cleared by any of the following actions. When you press the 5 key When you initialize modes and settings by pressing A B 2(or 3) = When you change from one calculation mode to another When you turn off the calculator. k Error Locator · Pressing r or e after an error occurs displays the calculation with the cursor positioned at the location where the error occurred. k Multi-statements A multi-statement is an expression that is made up of two or more smaller expressions, which are joined using a colon ( : ). · Example: To add 2 + 3 and then multiply the result by 4 2+3p\g-4= 2+ 3 5. 20. Disp = Ans×4 E-9 k Exponential Display Formats This calculator can display up to 10 digits. Larger values are automatically displayed using exponential notation.
