Re: HP-42S + 82240: what do NORM and TRACE modes do? Message #2 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 20 Nov 2004, 11:42 a.m., in response to message #1 by Thomas Okken
Hi, Thomas;
TRACE mode enables the HP42S printer output to literaly trace any calculator operation, even in a running program. Whatever you do will be "followed" by the IR output (ALPHA code for each key pressed, every resulting value, etc.).
NORM(al) mode enables the HP42S output to send all resulting display from operations to the printer. It's sort of a "short form" for TRACE.
If it helps, I can detail it for you and even "capture" some output data from an HP42S through an HP48G IR input (with inprt running) as an example of what you should have. In fact, I have already some stuff ready, I just need to find it. Just send me an e-mail with a valid e-address and I'll do that:

Best regards.
