FRAM 71: Impact on start time

[KimH]

Could it be that you should use OFFIO (disable IL) and see if it starts faster. The IL always makes the machine slow, if no active devices are attached.

My interest in FRAM71 was recently rekindled by Sylvain's & Hans' recent excellent posts - thank you.

I hadn't used the 71B that I have FRAM installed in for a while & I found the batteries had gone flat & couldn't get it going with fresh ones installed. Ended-up having to follow Sylvain's initiation procedure for the Nashville version & even that didn't bring it back to life until I removed the HP-IL module. The unit in question is version: 1BBB & HPIL: 1B.

Now that everything has been reset & HPIL module re-installed, I find it takes ~ 4 Seconds for the unit to start from the time I press the On button. This seems longer than what I recollect & was wondering if this is typical or I may have missed something in the way I reset the calculator & FRAM71?

Thanks,

Michael
