Graphing
A collection of versatile graphing tools plus a large 127 ×63-dot
display makes it easy to draw a variety of function graphs quickly
and easily. This calculator is capable of drawing the following types
of graphs.
• Rectangular coordinate (Y =) graphs
• Polar coordinate (r=) graphs
• Parametric graphs
• X = constant graphs
• Inequality graphs
• Integration graphs (in the RUN mode only)
Aselection of graph commands also makes it possible to incorpo-
rate graphing into programs.

kEntering the Graph Mode
On the Main Menu, select the GRAPH icon and enter the GRAPH Mode. When you
do, the Graph Function menu appears on the display. You can use this menu to store,
edit, and recall functions and to draw their graphs.
1(SEL)........ Draw/non-draw status
2(DEL) ....... Graph delete
3(TYPE) ..... Graph Type Menu
5(GMEM) ... Graph memory save/recall

8-2 View Window (V-Window) Settings
Use the View Window to specify the range of the x-and y-axes, and to set the spac-
ing between the increments on each axis. You should always set the View Window
parameters you want to use before drawing a graph. Press !3to display the
View Window.
1. Press !3 to display the View Window.
!3(V-Window)
1(INIT)........ View Window initial settings
2(TRIG)...... View Window initial settings using specified angle unit
3(STD) ....... Standardized View Window settings
4(STO) ....... Store View Window settings to View Window memory.
5(RCL) ....... Recall View Window settings from View Window memory.
X min .............. Minimum x-axis value
X max ............. Maximum x-axis value
X scale ........... Spacing of x-axis increments
Y min .............. Minimum y-axis value
Y max ............. Maximum y-axis value
Y scale ........... Spacing of y-axis increments
The following illustration shows the meaning of each of these parameters.

2. Input a value for a parameter and press w. The calculator automatically selects
the next parameter for input.
• You can also select a parameter using the cand fkeys.
• There are actually nine View Window parameters. The remaining three param-
eters appear on the display when you move the highlighting down past the Y
scale parameter by inputting values and pressing c.
T, θ min .......... T, θ minimum values
T, θ max......... T, θ maximum values
T, θ pitch ........ T, θ pitch
The following illustration shows the meaning of each of these parameters.
3. To exit the View Window, press Jor !Q.
• Pressing wwithout inputting any value also exits the View Window.
• The following is the input range for View Window parameters.
–9.9999E+97 to 9.99999E+97
• You can input parameter values up to 14 digits long. Values greater than 107or
less than 10-2, are automatically converted to a 7-digit mantissa (including nega-
tive sign) plus a 2-digit exponent.
• The only keys that enabled while the View Window is on the display are: ato
j, ., E, -, f, c, d, e, +, -, *, /, (, ), !7,
J, !Q.You can use -or -to input negative values.
• The existing value remains unchanged if you input a value outside the allow-
able range or in the case of illegal input (negative sign only without a value).
• Inputting a View Window range so the min value is greater than the max value,
the axis is inverted.
• You can input expressions (such as 2π) as View Window parameters.
• When the View Window setting does not allow display of the axes, the scale for
they-axis is indicated on either the left or right edge of the display, while that for
the x-axis is indicated on either the top or bottom edge.

• When View Window values are changed, the graph display is cleared and the
newly set axes only are displayed.
• View Window setting may cause irregular scale spacing.
• Setting maximum and minimum values that create too wide of a View Window
range can result in a graph made up of disconnected lines (because portions of
the graph run off the screen), or in graphs that are inaccurate.
• The point of deflection sometimes exceeds the capabilities of the display with
graphs that change drastically as they approach the point of deflection.
• Setting maximum and minimum values that create to narrow of a View Window
range can result in an error (Ma ERROR).

uTo initialize the View Window
a. Press !3 (V-Window) 1(INIT) to initialize the View Window to the following
settings.
Xmin = –6.3 Ymin = –3.1
Xmax = 6.3 Ymax = 3.1
Xscale = 1 Yscale = 1
b. Press !3(V-Window) 2(TRIG) to initialize the View Window to the follow-
ing settings.
Deg Mode
Xmin = –540 Ymin = –1.6
Xmax = 540 Ymax = 1.6
Xscale = 90 Yscale = 0.5
Rad Mode
Xmin = –9.4247779
Xmax = 9.42477796
Xscale = 1.57079632
Gra Mode
Xmin = –600
Xmax = 600
Xscale = 100
• The settings for Y min, Y max, Y pitch, T/
θ min, T/ θ max, and T/ θ pitch remain
unchanged when you press 2(TRIG).

8-3 Graph Function Operations
You can store up to 20 functions in memory. Functions in memory can be edited,
recalled, and graphed. The types of functions that can be stored in memory are:
rectangular coordinate functions, polar coordinate functions, parametric functions,
inequalities, and X = constant expressions.

kSpecifying the Graph Type
Before you can store a graph function in memory, you must first specify its graph
type.
1. While the Graph Function Menu is on the display, press 3(TYPE) to display a
GraphType Menu.
3(TYPE)
1(Y =) ......... Rectangular coordinate
graph
2(r=).......... Polar coordinate graph
3(Parm)...... Parametric graph
4(X = c) ...... X = constant graph
6(g) ........... Next menu
6(g)
1(Y >) ......... Y > f (x) inequality
2(Y <) ......... Y < f (x) inequality
3(Y ≥) ......... Y >f (x) inequality
4(Y ≤) ......... Y <f
(x) inequality
6(g) ........... Previous menu
2. Press the function key that corresponds to the graph type you want to specify.
