hp41"SURVEYING I" Message #1 Posted by robert yarumian on 27 Dec 2000, 8:17 p.m. I HAVE A CHIP FOR A HP41 MARKED "SURVEYING I" WHICH I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WORKS AND CAN PLUG INTO MY 41CX, BUT I DO NOT KNOW THE START UP CODE. DO YOU KNOW HOW TO TEST IT OUT?

Re: hp41"SURVEYING I" Message #2 Posted by Randy Smith (Germany) on 28 Dec 2000, 1:38 a.m., in response to message #1 by robert yarumian The first thing to do is plug it in and perform a "cat 2" This operation checks through all of the programs and routines in currently plugged in modules. If you see a series of names on the display there is a pretty good chance your survey module will work. The names that appear are the names of the programs on the module. I hope this helps, Randy

Just kidding of course... Just test it with <shift> CAT 2, you should see a number of 'XXXXX labels running. You should also need the manual (available on CD through this site), I guess it's quite difficult to use without it.. Good luck !
