How do you remove the two zeroes on the top right corner of my calculator

What is the make and model of your calculator?

I assume the decimal is just a light that is on by accident. Is it always on? If you add whole numbers, is it still there? The two small zeros in the top right corner are usually the exponent in scientific notation. With the make and model, we should be able to figure out if your calculator can be reset. I would try removing the batteries, and if you have a new set handy, inserting a new set of batteries.

Let me know how you make out.

Good luck,

Paul

hi



press the clear key. this should remove the e and return the calculator to normal. than find out what cause the e to appear usually it cause by a illegal calculation like dividing by zero or taking to log of a negative number, tanget of 90 degrees,squaring a negative number...etc. hopely this will cure the problem



I hope this helps.

See my reply to your other posts.

They're telling you that you have non-zero values stored in M1, M2, and M3. To clear any one of them, store 0 in it by pressing 0 n where n is 1, 2, or 3. To clear all three of them at once, press ON/AC.

You're right in that the calculator thinks you have 19 data points. You need to delete the nine unwanted rows. After pressing EDIT, press NXT to bring up the second set of editing functions. Scroll down to each unwanted row and press B for -ROW to delete it.

Or else simply delete the Sigma-DAT variable in the current directory and start over.

Hello,

When you turn the calculator on, its screen is cleared, save for a small square on the top left corner. This is the cursor and it is blinking: The calculator is waiting for you to order it to perform some calculation.

Try this simple operation
[1] [+] [1] [ENTER]. The calculator will display the result one line down justified to the right.

Hope it helps.

Hello,
.
You can reset the calculator:

Turn the back of the calculator towards you. Extract the top left rubber pad on the back of the calculator and use a paper clip to press the Reset button. If that does not restore the calculator to health, you should perform the dagnostic tests.

The following procedure valid for the 48G should work for the HP48GX.
Make the calculator perform a
Self test.

1. Turn calculator on
2. Press and HOLD the key [ON]
3. Press and release the key with "E" to its right (the one before last in first row)
4. Relaese the [ON] key.

It tests the RAM and ROM. You will see various patterns on screen. Afterwards you should see
IROM OK,
IRAM OK,
HP48GX OK
The self test will continue repeatedly until you perform a
System Halt

1. Press and HOLD the [ON] key
2. Press and release the "C" key
3. Release the [ON] key.

The empty stack should appear.

If you do not see IROM OK and IRAM OK, the calculator requires service.

If the above procedure is successful, you may want
to test the keyboard.

1. Turn calculator on
2. Press and HOLD the [ON] key
3. Press and release the "D" key.
4. Release the [ON] key
5. Press and release the "E" key. KBD 1 should appear on the top left corner of the screen.
6. Starting at the upper left corner of the keyboard, and moving Left to right, press every key in sequence. If you follow the sequence and the keys are functioning properly you should hear a hight pitch sound at each press.
   
7. If everything is OK, when you press the last key (+) the screen displays KBD 1 OK.

To exit the keyboard test proceed as described above under System Halt.

If you follow the proper sequence and a hexadecimal number appears after pressing a key, the calculator requires service.
Hope it helps.
