interfacing a 41 with a 48 thru IR port Message #1 Posted by thib on 17 Aug 2000, 8:21 a.m. Do you think it's possible to send data from the 41 w/IR module to the 48 IR port? Or has it been done? If anybody knows how, I'd be interested. Thanks in advance. thib.

There may also be a program to download from one of the HP48 sites on the web too. Randy

Re: interfacing a 41 with a 48 thru IR port Message #5 Posted by Viktor Toth on 17 Aug 2000, 11:48 p.m., in response to message #1 by thib Using IR is actually the preferred method of transferring programs from a 41C to your HP-48SX if you happen to be using the HP-41CV emulator card. Speaking of which, can anybody confirm whether this emulator card is indeed incompatible with the HP-48GX? I believe I read somewhere that it is, but I'm not sure; it works fine in my HP-48SX, but not in my HP-48GX. Viktor

Re: interfacing a 41 with a 48 thru IR port Message #6 Posted by Steve on 18 Aug 2000, 5:05 a.m., in response to message #5 by Viktor Toth I cannot confirm by actual trial since I have not plugged mine into a 48GX, but I have read *lots* of people asking either how to make it work on a GX or why it doesnt, and the reply is always the same "It only works on a 48SX". I bought an SX to go with my card :-)

Re: HP41CV Emulator Card Message #8 Posted by Chan Tran on 18 Aug 2000, 7:39 p.m., in response to message #5 by Viktor Toth The Emulator only works in an SX. It would crash the GX. I have the Emulator and both the SX and GX. I can never get it to work with the GX. Inprt works with either calculator to capture output from the 41 IR.
