Which symbols get displayed by the 7 segment display on a HP 15-C? - Michael Zinn - 06-26-2019 12:23 PM

Does anybody know the complete list of letters and other symbols that get displayed by the calculator?

Beside the obvious "-1234567890,." I know it can display "Error", "running", "Pr Error", "u" (user mode stuff), "AbCdE" (matrix indicators)... are there any more texts?

Have a look at this: HP-15C "Synthetics"

Scroll down to "A demonstration program" and you'll find how to display a "HEllo PPC" text.

Welcome back and regards.

Neat! However, meant to ask about all the characters you might see during normal operation. Is my list complete?

It's just a question of reading the HP-15C Owner's Handbook, which lists all messages the calculator produces, so go ahead.
