These are from the HP-41 links on my links page, linked below.

The HP-71 is where I got into Forth, with HP's Forth/Assembler module. It's a rather poor Forth; but being Forth, you can of course get under the hood and extend and improve it.

Yes. Since FRAM can emulate any/all of the 71B memory map, it's easy to install both the 16KB relocatable ROM as well as the 32KB ROM fixed at 0xE0000. Images of both are readily available. Initially, it's a bit trickier to set up than a normal plug-in (relocatable) ROM, but still not hard. Same story for the 41 Emulator ROM.

please, could you help me to get Emu71 working?
Can I use this program? but of course I can't find ROM there...
I'm using Windows 10 inside my Mac OS X 10.13, the main program runs (the interface looks a bit "obsolete", yes), but then I cannot go on without those files...

Have a look into the HP-71 Compendium and you will find the ROM you are searching for.

Be aware that the links in the PDF no longer works since DropBox change their sharing rules.
I have moved all the files to my web site and updated the article web pages version, I still have to update the PDF version, sorry about that.

In this youtube video they use "BASIC" to revert (but that is Forth 2A).

(01-21-2018 04:24 PM)Dave Frederickson Wrote:  Correct. The 41 Translator (FORTH 2A) has the FORTH word "BASIC", but the FORTH/Assembler (FORTH 1A) doesn't.

I suggest you go ahead and read Sylvain's Compendium, either the html or pdf version as the contents are the same, it's just the links that need to be updated.

You may also find it useful and fun to configure HP-IL in Emu71, then ILPer or pyILPER can be used for virtual peripherals like a printer, mass mem, plotter, etc.

hi Dave,
yes, I've already installed HP-IL as suggested in the Compendium (I've the HP-IL also in the real HP71b)...

So, for Forth 1A, isn't a way to revert to Basic without reset?
Forth assembler maybe it is "simple" but it works, enough well.

I'm still reading the Compendium, there are a lot of fun to read...

(01-21-2018 04:53 PM)Dave Frederickson Wrote:  So you have an HP-IL module for your 71B. The next thing is the PIL-Box, Jean-Francois Garnier's HP-IL to USB converter. This will allow you to connect your physical 71B to the ILPer virtual peripherals or the 71 emulators to physical peripherals.

This is also the means to access the MoHPC and OLDP LIF archives with your physical 71B.
