Hp 41cx self test
Message #1 Posted by Pierre Brial on 6 July 2003, 1:41 a.m.

Hello,

A friend give me a broken Hp41cx. With a lot of soldering I succeed to repair this mythical machine. Everything seems to work fine now, but is there a self test like in more recent HP ?

All the best

To the best of my knowledge, there is no self-test. HP technicians used to use a special plug-in module that contained a test program, but those modules are very difficult to find, since supposedly they never left the hands of HP technicians (they were not sold to the public).

Dear Pierre,
Some modules have programs or MCode routines in order to test HP-41s:
Service module was made for that.
PPCROM DT program tests the display.
Yours.
