HP67/97 Standard Pacs
Message #1 Posted by John Robinson (Australia) on 31 May 2001, 3:30 a.m.

Can anyone tell me about 67/97 standard pacs. Was there a 67 only, 97 only and 67/97 version etc ??. I have a standard pac for which the manual says 67/97, but the cards say 97. I noticed that the diagnostics program in this pac is different to the one I got with a 67 I acquired. Thanks - John

Hi John Are you sure you don't have it backwards? Thmanuals were different but the card packs were the same. The manuals were different because the HP-97 had a printer and the different manual was needed to address that fact.

You're right Erik, I do have it the wrong way around, but I do have two different versions of the diagnostic program, one which shows all 8s on completion, and one which shows all 7s on completion. Any ideas how this happened ?

Hi John, I believe the diagnostic programs were updated for some reason. Look at the revision. I have seen A, B and C. The manual and card should be the same revision.
