Re: Weird Voyager Behavior and 12C+ issue Message #4 Posted by Bart (UK) on 14 Aug 2009, 9:57 a.m., in response to message #3 by cyrille de Brébisson
Cyrille,
I'd hesitate to call it a bug. Perhaps it was a feature that if the calculator was put into test mode (on purpose or accidental) and left unattended, it would time-out. Or for some other reason (original design team thought it would be a good/sensible idea). Without a RTC the time-out would have been based on the CPU speed.
By the way, my 32S times out in about 2m 45s and first shows "KBD 01 - 00" with a warning trianle and upon ANY keypress shows "32S - FAIL 8".
Just my 2c worth.
Bart
Edit:
Playing around now
32S:
Start test (ON & y^x), continue to kbd test, then leave:
2m 45s "KBD 01 - 00" with a warning trianle
2m 45s after that "32S - FAIL 8"
2m 45s after that, returns to normal operating mode.
20S:
Start test (ON & y^x), continue to kbd test, then leave:
1m "20 - FAIL 8"
15s after that, returns to normal operating mode.
20S:
Start test (ON & y^x), then leave:
1m display changes, does this about 3x
1m after that "20 - FAIL 8"
15s after that, returns to normal operating mode.
