[wp34S] PSTO Won't Write to 6 thru 9 Message #1 Posted by Les Wright on 26 Nov 2011, 4:56 a.m. Hi guys, In my 30b-based wp34s, I have been fiddling with flashing and internal storage, etc. I am chagrined to note that I same to only get access to libraries 0 thru 5 with the PSTO command. On my calc, the function won't accept 6 thru 9 as a parameter for the function. All is well with the emulator, and I can PSTO to all ten libraries, just like the manual says I should. Do I possible have a bad calc with bummed flash memory? It would be a shame to miss out on those extra 2000 program steps. I am still using 2.2 Les

The cost of the matrix functions primarily. The emulator has no such restrictions since it isn't really limited by memory or disc space. - Pauli

The price was right, but I was worried I had a hardware issue. This issue does apply to 2.2, right? So all is normal with my calc? Thanks, Les P.S. Another little glitch in this is that an askew insertion damaged a pin in my cable! Just ordered a fresh one from Gene. Dang, those little pins are delicate and I thought I was taking care. Take caution, guys!

Matrix functions are present -- they aren't small. Thus far, all the 3.x functionality has been done in a flash neutral manner -- in fact we've (Marcus predominately) saved enough to regain one flash region in addition to providing the extra functionality. - Pauli
