Print TIME and DATE - Dinamarco - 12-29-2019 07:27 PM
Could you help me?
I have a HP41CX
When I'm using some HP-IL printer, like HP2225C, I'd like to print the TIME and DATE in first line.
Thanks for help me

This is probably clunky, but seems to work:
CLA
TIME
ATIME
|-" "
DATE
ADATE
PRA
RE: Print TIME and DATE - Dinamarco - 12-31-2019 02:41 PM
Nice....
I tried but...
CLA
TIME
ATIME
|-" " (how do I type it in HP41cx ?)
DATE
ADATE
PRA
Could you answer me?
RE: Print TIME and DATE - twoweims - 12-31-2019 03:03 PM
It is the "APPEND" Symbol
ALPHA - SHIFT - K
Followed by a Space.
RE: Print TIME and DATE - Dinamarco - 12-31-2019 03:08 PM
ok. Thanks a lot!
Another simple question: Is possible to print an simple text after a question, for example:
NAME?
PROMPT
DINAMARCO

Sorry I did not see your question sooner, I should have realized that the APPEND function might not be obvious. Thanks to twoweims for answering.
I also realized my code could use some more work. The ATIME and ADATE functions observe or obey the current display mode to some exent, so some FIX commands would be needed to insure a pleasing output. Something like the below gives good results:
CLA
FIX 02
TIME
ATIME
|-" "
DATE
FIX 04
ADATE
PRA
Above provides hours and minutes for the time, for example, if I execute it at this very moment, I get:
12:40 PM 12/31/19
If hours minutes and seconds are preferred, just put a FIX 04 at the beginning and get:
12:40:15 PM 12/31/19
If DMY is preferred:
12:40 PM 31.12.19
If 24 hour time is prefrerred:
12:40 31.12.19
If you want the whole year, replace the FIX 04 with a FIX 06:
12:40 PM 12/31/2019
RE: Print TIME and DATE - Dinamarco - 12-31-2019 07:42 PM
Thanks DAVE...
I wrote it in my small program.
Best Regards...

On the LCD no (well, yes but not really), on the printer yes.
Code:
LBL "TEST" // test program
AON // ALPHA ON
"NAME ? " // question
ACA // add ALPHA content (question) to printer buffer, no CR+LF added
PROMPT // show question on the LCD, wait for user to enter his name and then press R/S to restart the program
AOFF // ALPHA OFF
PRA // add alpha content (user name) to printer buffer, add CR+LF and print buffer
END // end of programPrinter output:
Code:
NAME ? SYLVAINRE: Print TIME and DATE - Dinamarco - 12-31-2019 09:50 PM
Solved!!!
Thanks a lot for everyone who help me!
Happy new year!!!
RE: Print TIME and DATE - dayd - 01-01-2020 03:25 PM
Happy new year every one!
Late and probably a bit outside the scope but here's a few line of code I use to display the date in french.
Code:
01◆LBL "JOUR"
02 DATE
03◆LBL D
04 DOW
05 XEQ IND X
06 "|- "
07 RCL d
08 FIX 2
09 SF 28
10 ARCL L
11 STO d
12 AVIEW
13 CLX
14 LASTX
15 RTN
16◆LBL 00
17 "DIMANCH."
18 RTN
19◆LBL 01
20 "LUNDI"
21 RTN
22◆LBL 02
23 "MARDI"
24 RTN
25◆LBL 03
26 "MERCRED."
27 RTN
28◆LBL 04
29 "JEUDI"
30 RTN
31◆LBL 05
32 "VENDRED."
33 RTN
34◆LBL 06
35 "SAMEDI"
36 ENDOnce the pointer in the program, 03 LBL D is there to display any given date in X.
Line 06 is Append Space.
Lines 07 & 11 are synthetic instructions to keep the previous status (flags) of the 41, they can be omitted.
Also this nice to see that there's still HP2225C printers out there. Mine is out of order cause the cartridge wasn't removed by the previous owner.

Alternative implementation using X<>F instead of XEQ IND X.
DOW converted into flags with X<>F
Code:

Always cool to see others way of writing code
