3. Executing a User Function.

1. Make sure the User keyboard is active .

2. Press the redefined key.

Any key not redefined retains its Normal function (except in the top two rows).

4. Local Label Searching.

If a key in the top two rows (or shifted top row) is not reassigned, the HP-41CX will perform local label searching if one of those keys is pressed when the User keyboard is active. If a matching local label (A through J or a through e) is found in the current program, execution of the program starts there. If that label is not found in the current program, the Normal function of that key is executed.

How to Execute Functions (Alpha Execution)

If a function has its own key (whether on the Normal keyboard or the User keyboard), you can perform its operation by pressing that key-such as for GEJ-or by pressing the shift key and then that key-such as for rzl (Remember tc supply any necessary numbers or labels first.)

If a function does not appear on the keyboard-such as 1 TIME I-you can perform it using either Alpha execution Or a User-defined key on the User keyboard. How to assign functions to User keys is shown on page 5 of this guide. Alpha execution is shown below:

1. Press 1 XEQ I.

2. Press I ALPHA 1 to activate the Alpha keyboard.

3. Spell out the Alpha name of the desired function, or the global label of the desired program.

4. Press I ALPHA 1 to deactivate the Alpha keyboard and end the procedure.

If the function needs a parameter, it will cue for it. with the _ input cue.

Function Set

T'his is an alphabetical list of the HP-41CX functions, including brief definitions. For a more detailed summary of these functions, refer to the Function Tables in volume 2 of the owner's manual. For page references to the complete descriptions within the owner's manual, refer to the Function Index in either volume of the owner's manual.

Note that usually you supply any needed operands before you execute the function (the operator). The exceptions are the parameter functions, which cue you for information after you execute the function. Parameter functions are shown below with their parameters, such as I ARCL Inn.

14

Function names printed in blue are Aipha names and use Alpha execution or User-keyboard execution. Function names printed in black or gold are keyboard names, and have keys for execution on the Normal keyboard.

Storing and Executing Programs

To store a program in main memory:

1. Press I PRGM I to activate Program mode.

2. Press (GTO 100 to pack memory and move to the end

of program memory,

3. Key in a global label of up to seven Alpha characters.

4. Key in each subsequent instruction.

5. Optional: press I GTO 100 to automatically add an Ii@] instruction and pack program memory.

6. Press I PROM I to activate Execution mode.

If you make any mistakes, use G to delete individual characters and entire lines.

To execute a program in main memory:

1. Make sure Execution mode is active (no PRGM annunciator).

2. Start the program by executing its global label-by Alpha execution (page 14) Or by User key (page 5 in this guide). Program execution starts at that global label.

While the program is actually running, the PRGM annunciator is on. The ;. program execution indicator also appears.

Pressing ! RIS I will either start the current program (from its current line) or stop a funning program. If a running program stops to prompt for data, for example, you key in the data and then press I RIS I to continue the program.

To run (and re-run) the current program, you can simply press @NJlA/S I.

Time Values

The computer interprets clock time values that you specify according to the following conventions:

31

Alarm Format

Message Alarm: sounds tones and displays a message when it goes off.

Control Alarm; runs the specified program or programmable catalog-2 function when the alarm comes due.

Conditional Alarm: does not interrupt a running program, unlike the other alarms. If the HP-41CX is off or displaying the clock, a conditional alarm becomes a control alarm. If the HP-41CX is on and not running a program, a conditional alarm becomes a message alarm. If a program is running, the alarm only beeps (twice), and then becomes past due.

'To set an alarm (I XYZALM I), follow these steps:

1. Key in the repeat interval (using zero for no repetition). Press I ENTER. I.

2. Key in the date for the alarm (using zero for today).

Press 1 ENTER! I.

3. Key in the time for the alarm.

4. Press 1 ALPHA I.

For a message alarm, key in a message or clear the Alpha register. (A clear Alpha register results in an alarm "message" of the time and date.]

For a control alarm, key in [DC!] global label Or 00 function name.

For a conditional alarm, key in C!] global label or CD function name.

Acknowledging Alarms

and

Clearing

Message

• To hal t a current, flashing alarm, press any key except 1 STO I. This also clears (deletes) the alarm, unless it is a repeating one. A repeating message alarm is reset.

• To halt and clear a current repeating alarm, press

.@].

• To clear an alarm that is not currently active, use .@] on the Alarm Catalog keyboard. (Run the 'catalog, stop it at the desired alarm, and press .@].)

You do not acknowledge non-message alarms, that is, ones that run programs.

33

The Catalogs

There are six catalogs (press 1 CATALOG 1 n 1 in the HP-41CX:

• Catalog 1: User Programs. A list of all global labels and END instructions with the byte count for that program, listed in the order in which they were stored. The permanent END LEND.) shows the number of unused registers in uncommitted memory (and therefore still available for programming).

• Catalog 2: External Functions + Time Functions + Extended Functions. A list of all functions and programs currently available to the computer from peripheral devices, plug-in modules, and the time, extended, and extended-memory functions, The list of functions is grouped by source (press 1 ENTER' 1 to see individual functions).

• Catalog 3: Standard Functions. An alphabetical list of the standard functions.

• Catalog 4: Extended Memory Directory (I EMDIR I). A list of all files in extended memory. It gives the file name, file type, and the number of registers in the file. It ends with the number of registers left in extended memory.

• Catalog 5: Alarm Catalog (I ALMCAT I). A list of each alarm, in chronological order, with its time, date, and message. (See the Alarm Catalog keyboard diagram.)

• Catalog 6: User Key Assignments. A list of all User key definitions in order of keycode.

34

When you execute 1 CATAlOG 1 n, the catalog listing begins, You can stop and restart it with 1 RIS I. With the automatic I isting stepped, you can step through it forwards with I SST 1 and backwards with C@, or exit the catalog with G. In catalog 2, press I ENTER. 1 to see a list of' those func-> ticns belonging to the displayed source device.

Most automatic catalog listings speed up when you press an undefined key. If a printer is attached, the catalogs will print out in Trace mode only.
