About this User’s Guide
uFunction Keys and Menus
•Many of the operations performed by this calculator can be executed by pressing function
keys 1through 6. The operation assigned to each function key changes according to
the mode the calculator is in, and current operation assignments are indicated by function
menus that appear at the bottom of the display.
•This user’s guide indicates the current operation assigned to a function key in parentheses
following the key cap marking for that key. 1(Comp), for example, indicates that
pressing 1selects {Comp}, which is also indicated in the function menu.
•When {g} is indicated in the function menu for key 6, it means that pressing 6
displays the next page or previous page of menu options.
uMenu Titles
•Menu titles in this user’s guide include the key operation required to display the menu
being explained. The key operation for a menu that is displayed by pressing Kand then
{MAT} would be shown as: [OPTN]-[MAT].
•6(g) key operations to change to another menu page are not shown in menu title key
operations.
uCommand List
•The Program Mode Command List (page 453) provides a graphic flowchart of the various
function key menus that shows how to maneuver to the menu of commands you need.
Example: The following operation displays Xfct: [VARS]-[FACT]-[Xfct]

2. Selecting Icons and Entering Modes
This section describes how to select an icon in the Main Menu to enter the mode you want.
uTo select an icon
1. Press mto display the Main Menu.
Currently selected icon
2. Use the cursor keys (d, e, f, c) to move the highlighting to the icon
you want.
3. Press wto display the initial screen of the mode whose icon you selected.
•You can also enter a mode without highlighting an icon in the Main Menu by
inputting the number or letter marked in the lower right corner of the icon.
•Use only the procedures described above to enter a mode. If you use any other
procedure, you may end up in a mode that is different than the one you thought
you selected.
The following explains the meaning of each icon.

3. Display
kAbout the Display Screen
This calculator uses two types of display: a text display and a graphic display. The
text display can show 21 columns and eight lines of characters, with the bottom
line used for the function key menu, while the graph display uses an area that
measures 127 (W) ×63 (H) dots.
Text Display Graph Display
kAbout Display Colors [OPTN]-[COLR]
The calculator can display data in three colors: orange, blue, and green. The
default color for graphs and comment text is blue, but you can specify orange or
green if you want.
•{Orng}/{Grn} ... {orange}/{green}
•The above setting affects the color of graphs and comment text. Specify the
color you want to use before inputting the graph’s function or the program
comment text.
kAbout Menu Item Types
This calculator uses certain conventions to indicate the type of result you can ex-
pect when you press a function key.
• Next Menu
Example:
Selecting displays a menu of hyperbolic functions.
• Command Input
Example:
Selecting inputs the sinh command.

• Direct Command Execution
Example:
Selecting executes the DRAW command.
kExponential Display
The calculator normally displays values up to 10 digits long. Values that exceed
this limit are automatically converted to and displayed in exponential format. You
can specify one of two different ranges for automatic changeover to exponential
display.
Norm 1 ........... 10–2 (0.01) > |x|, |x| >1010
Norm 2 ........... 10–9 (0.000000001) > |x|, |x| >1010
uTo change the exponential display range
1. Press !Z to display the set up screen.
2. Use fand cto move the highlighting to “Display”.
3. Press 3(Norm).
The exponential display range switches between Norm 1 and Norm 2 each time
you perform the above operation. There is no display indicator to show you which
exponential display range is currently in effect, but you can always check it by
seeing what results the following calculation produces.
Ab/caaw(Norm 1)
(Norm 2)
All of the examples in this manual show calculation results using Norm 1.
uHow to interpret exponential format
1.2E+12 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2 ×1012. This means that you
should move the decimal point in 1.2 twelve places to the right, because the
exponent is positive. This results in the value 1,200,000,000,000.
1.2E–03 indicates that the result is equivalent to 1.2 ×10–3. This means that you
should move the decimal point in 1.2 three places to the left, because the
exponent is negative. This results in the value 0.0012.

kSpecial Display Formats
This calculator uses special display formats to indicate fractions, hexadecimal
values, and sexagesimal values.
uFractions
..... Indicates: 456
uHexadecimal Values
..... Indicates: ABCDEF12(16), which
equals –1412567278(10)
uSexagesimal Values
..... Indicates: 12°34’ 56.78"
•In addition to the above, this calculator also uses other indicators or symbols,
which are described in each applicable section of this manual as they come up.
kCalculation Execution Indicator
Whenever the calculator is busy drawing a graph or executing a long, complex
calculation or program, a black box (k) flashes in the upper right corner of the
display. This black box tells you that the calculator is performing an internal
operation.
