HP-49g+ CASCMD command Message #1 Posted by Antonio Maschio (Italy) on 30 Nov 2006, 6:19 a.m. Hi, According to the user's guide of the hp-49g+, english edition in pdf downloaded from HP site, at the paragraph 1-7, the CASCMD command of the TOOL menu is Quote: used to launch a command from the CAS by selecting from a list. But when I try to launch a command by the CASCMD menu, what I obtain is a replication of the HELP command which, on the same guide page is a Quote: facility describing the commands available. Have I changed some flag that makes the CASCMD behave like HELP? Or has the most recent ROM I uploaded (I think 2.09 version) changed what was the normal way as exposed into the user's guide? Any help appreciated. -- Antonio

Re: HP-49g+ CASCMD command Message #2 Posted by Ken Ratkevich on 30 Nov 2006, 8:02 a.m., in response to message #1 by Antonio Maschio (Italy) I just searched comp.sys.hp48 and this appears to be "normal" for the 49g+ and 50g though it is in conflict with the manuals for both. I am only able to access a list of CAS commands from EQW using [CMDS]. [CASCM] and [HELP] from the TOOL menu seem to do exactly the same thing. [ENTER]ing CASCMD directly also brings up the CAS help facility. Though this does not seem right, I guess that's the way it is. Ken
