Mier-Jedrzejowicz Organization: Imperial College Computer Centre Keywords: HP48SX, reset button Summary: The reset button might be under the right foot. Article-I.D.: cc.1990Dec27.013634.23151 Nntp-Posting-Host: suni2cc Lines: 21 I have recently been told that since late Summer (in the Northern Hemisphere ;-) ), the HP48SX is made with the reset button under the right-hand upper right foot, not the left-hand one. Only one mention of this possibility has reached me so far via comp.sys.handhelds, and that was merely a suggestion, so I wonder if anyone has noticed this change and can confirm it. It would be very useful to know if this is true - otherwise newcomers to comp.sys.handhelds will continue to to use the advice that they can reset their HP48SX by turning it over on its back, removing the upper left foot, and poking a pin into that hole. They will then be sorely disappointed to find this does not work. A possible solution is to tell them to try both right and left sides. If you ARE a newcomer - this operation resets the HP48SX, clearing the stack, and letting you regain control of it from the keyboard in cases where you cannot regain control from the keyboard itself, but do not want to perform a full-blown memory reset. Usual disclaimers apply. Wlodek Mier-Jedrzejowicz, Space & Atmospheric Physics, Imperial College, London
