Many thanks,

The manuals are on the manuals page of Monte's 41CL site, http://www.systemyde.com/hp41/manuals.html

The overall memory structure is described in the "Calculator Manual" and the Extreme Functions are described in a separate manual for that ROM.

I recommend you read them slowly, frequently reference the memory layout diagrams, and try the various settings, you can't hurt the CL board.

I know that my manuals are not perfect. As evidenced by the fact that I have had
multiple requests for a "41CL For Dummies." The problem is that I have a hard time
knowing how much readers already know or don't already know about the 41C. In
addition, I am used to writing for a very technical audience, so I make unconscious
assumptions about technical terms. That, plus writing is hard.

So, my advice mirrors that of Robert: Start with the 41CL Manual. Once you have
a reasonable handle on that, go on to the Extreme Functions manual. While you
can't damage the 41CL board, once you start playing with the functions that
erase or write to Flash memory, just be careful not to try to write to the sector
where the Operating System resides. (See what I mean? There are at least three
assumptions about knowledge of technical terms in that last sentence.)

There are lots of people here who are happy to answer questions, and I do my
best to respond to email questions, although sometimes my answers will be "read
paragraph x on page y of the manual."
