Use Ipaq as 19BII Financial Calc
Message #1 Posted by Gus on 8 Apr 2005, 1:31 p.m.

Hello, I have Emu48 and a 19BII calc. I need a KML script and instructions on how to extract the ROM out of my calc.

I surfed Christoph Giabelink's website and found some comments and instructions but not on the 19BII specifically.

Could someone give me a hand?

Thanks Gus

Hi Gus!

Even if Emu42 technically could emulate the HP-19BII the real problem is that there is no known way to extract the ROM from it. This is the same issue, as for example, with the HP-32SII.

My suggestion would be to buy a cosmetically imperfect but working HP-17BII off eBay and dump the ROM from it instead (if you can live with an emulated HP-17BII instead of a HP-19BII that is). The dumping process is actually very fast and not at all diffucult. Note, however, that you must also have access to a HP-48GX to use as the receiver during the process. (A HP-48G+, or a HP-48SX with a 128K RAM card, should also work fine).

There is also already a KML script for Pocket PC for the HP-17BII...

Good luck! And if it works for you, do not forget to post your successful ROM dump story here. It's always nice to see people joining the "ROM dumping" club...
