HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #1 Posted by Olivier De Smet on 10 Nov 2011, 9:31 a.m. new HP97 model : HP97+ fully loaded HP97 896 program steps 106 registers (A to I are regs 100 to 105) HD magnetic cards : one side is enough for either: - whole program memory - whole register set Be careful not to mix your cards sets. (a tool to convert cards set will be done soon) 5 new instructions: one more indirect register E RCL (e) keyed as 'RCL' 'e^x', printed as 'RCLe' STO (e) keyed as 'STO' 'e^x', printed as 'STOe' GTO (e) keyed as 'GTO' 'e^x', printed as 'GT->e' GSB (e) keyed as 'GSB' 'e^x', printed as 'GS->e' use the E register as a new indirect one, same functionnalities as I register BACK x keyed as 'LBL' 'e^x', printed as 'Bc^x' go back 'stack X' steps (stack X doesn't need to be negative) This one was needed as there are still only 20 labels :( A full rom source is given for the curious reader (patched and non patched) As usual it's here : http://sites.google.com/site/olivier2smet2/hp_projects/hp97 Olivier Edited: 10 Nov 2011, 9:33 a.m.

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #2 Posted by Kerem Kapkin (Silicon Valley, CA) on 10 Nov 2011, 5:29 p.m., in response to message #1 by Olivier De Smet Very nice windows emulator of HP 67 and 97, works fine and excellent graphics, thanks for sharing. One question: What is the difference between HP97P and HP97? HP97P seems to work fine, however HP97, number entry on my Windows 7 machine doesn't seem to work. Edited: 10 Nov 2011, 5:34 p.m.

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #3 Posted by Olivier De Smet on 10 Nov 2011, 5:40 p.m., in response to message #2 by Kerem Kapkin (Silicon Valley, CA) HP97p use a patched rom to use the full range of ram addressing of the woodstock family. The HP97 use 4*16 registers ram chips to have 224 steps and 26 memory. HP97p use the full 16*16 registers address space to give 896 steps and 106 memory For the shorcuts in the kml files they are made for a french keymap. You can change it yourself if you like. On a full size keybord, all emulator key are mapped somewhere on the pc-keyboard (to have an efficient us) Btw, I just put a 1.7.1 release which correct some bugs and gives more speed.

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #4 Posted by Namir on 10 Nov 2011, 6:06 p.m., in response to message #1 by Olivier De Smet Hi Olivier, Thank you for the HP97+ emulator. I have been trying to run either version of the HP-67 but it does not seem to load right. I get to see the windows for the calculator image and the mag cards, but the HP-67 calculator freezes. Namir

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #5 Posted by Duane Hess on 10 Nov 2011, 6:25 p.m., in response to message #4 by Namir Namir: I had a situation, which may be different. When I 1st got it to run, it wouldn't freeze entirely, just each keypress would take 60 (or more) seconds. re-installed & found when I first run it or after a FILE/NEW clicking the "choose KML" button and specifying OK (didn't change any parameters, they were already correct) the emulator then runs A-OK. Maybe not the same as your situation. Also, I run VISTA home premium, for whatever that's worth.

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #6 Posted by Namir on 10 Nov 2011, 10:32 p.m., in response to message #5 by Duane Hess Duane, I am running Windows 7. I was able to lunch the HP-67 emulator. I had to click the Cancel button on the first three dialog boxes that appear. Then I start working with the remaining dialog boxes. The emulator then runs correctly (from the little testing that I did). I hope Olivier corrects this problem which occurred in a previous version, so that the emulator will run in a straightforward manner and without the need of mouse acrobatics.

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #8 Posted by Olivier De Smet on 11 Nov 2011, 6:00 a.m., in response to message #7 by Israel Otero new 1.7.2 version ----- When installing a new release clean the registry : HKCU/Software/ remove HP67, HP97, HP97p Then launch the program, use 'kml' to choose a config, and then save a document to re-create the registry. The next launch will be a direct reload. ----- Some bugs on hp97 rom load, PSE duration, ... CORRECTED :) Edited: 11 Nov 2011, 10:07 a.m. after one or more responses were posted

Re: HP 67, 97, 97+ emulator Message #9 Posted by Israel Otero on 11 Nov 2011, 9:57 a.m., in response to message #8 by Olivier De Smet After testing different options, I noticed that, thank you. In Ubuntu Linux using Wine it works ok. Let's hope you get the bugs out soon.
