Introduction
Time:
elusive
and
immediate...limited
yet
infinite.
Because
time
is
important
to
you,
Hewlett-
Packard
introduces
the
HP-01,
a
new
dimension
in
time
management
and
personal
computa-
tion.
It's
a
digital
electronic
wristwatch,
a
personal
calculator,
an
alarm
clock,
a
stopwatch,
a
timer,
a
200-year
calendar...and
yet
it
is
more
than
all
of
these.
The
HP-01
is
a
unique,
interactive
combination
of
time
and
computation
functions
that
offers
unmatched
capability
and
versatility.
You
can
do
anything
from
viewing
the
time
to
dynamically
calculating
the
cost
of
a
long-
distance
phone
call
or,
if a
pilot,
finding
the
distance
to
your
next
checkpoint.
For
years,
Hewlett-Packard
atomic
clocks
have
been
used
by
international
observatories
and
authorities
to
set
time
standards
with
accuracy
to
within
one
second
in
over
3000
years.
Currently,
millions
of
HP
pocket
calculators
are
in
use
throughout
the
world.
The
same
company
with
this
proven
and
respected
clock
and
calculator
expertise
stands
behind
your
HP-01.
Hewlett-Packard
congratulates
you
on
the
acquisition
of
this
fine
instrument.
We
hope
you
will
wear
and
use
it
with
the
same
pride
that
its
creators
at
HP
take
in
this
remarkable
technical
achievement.

A
Word
Or
Two
About
These
Instructions...
Your
HP-01
is
shipped
fully
assembled,
including
the
batteries.
Six
keys—
@,
@,
©.
@. @.
and
@
—
can be
pressed
with
your
finger.
Two
keys—
@
and
@
—
are
recessed
slightly
to
prevent
accidental
continuous
stopwatch
display.
All
keys
can
be
operated
with
the
stylus
(fitted
in
the
watchband
clasp)
or
the
stylus
tip
of
the
pen.
(Do
not
use
the
writing
tip;
it
may
damage
the
keys.)
When
you
press
a
key,
the
display
blinks
momentarily
to
let
you
know
that
the
keystroke
function
has
been
recognized.
Some
keys
on
your
HP-01
perform
more
than
one
function.
To
access
the
alternate
function,
press
the
@
key
first.
21
To
select
the
function
above
the
key,
first
press
.
then
press
the
function
key
(@).
This
appears
in
the
handbook
as
.?J
O
To
select
the
function
printed
on
the
key
(addition),
press
the
key
(€D).

The
@
key
is
also
used
to
store
values
in
@,
@.
@,
@,
and
©.
Two
display
formats
are
available
for
time
and
dates.
Examples
throughout
this
handbook
use
the
12-hour
time
display
mode
although
they
apply
equally
to
the
24-hour
time
display
mode.
Similarly,
the
month,
day,
and
year
format
is
used
for
displaying
dates
in
these
examples,
but
you
can
also
select
day,
month,
year
format.
When
you
are
working
with
the
clock
functions—watch,
alarm,
stopwatch
or
timer—your
dis-
played
answer
may
differ
slightly
from
the
answer
given
in
this
guide.
That's
because
it
will
take
a
few
seconds
to
push
the
keys,
during
which
time
the
HP-01
clock
is
incrementing.
Your
HP-01
displays
the
correct
answer;
it
may
be
greater
or
less,
by a
few
seconds,
than
the
answer
printed
here.
If
the
display
turns
off
while
you
are
practicing
these
examples,
simply
press
)
(read)
to
recall
the
number.
If
you
make
a
mistake,
either
press
@&
once
to
clear
the
last
entry,
or
press
@
twice
and
start
the
problem
over
again.
Remember
to
clear
the
calculator
(@
@)
if
you
are
in
doubt
as
to
the
calculator
status.
After
you
have
mastered
the
basic
functions,
try
some
of
the
diverse
problems
in
the
Applications
section—you'll
discover
the
amazing
versatility
of
your
HP-01.
