DM41X Time Correction - JurgenRo - 10-31-2020 08:18 PM

In the DM41X manual chapter 3.8 (RTC Correction) describes a method to correct the internal accuracy of the clock. On the other hand the HP-41CX (or Time Module) knows the function "CORRECT" for this purpose. Can the original "CORRECT" still be used for correction, or is it necessary to use the method described in chapter 3.8? Thanks and Greetings!

The timer hardware is totally different in the DM41X so the CORRECT instruction doesn't work. Remember, the DM41X is an emulator that is running the original 41CX ROM, so executing CORRECT is going to attempt to address hardware that isn't there.

Ok, thanks!
