Voyager crash
Just got my first HP-12C and already found a way to crash it which apparently works on all the original Voyagers (not the newer ones apparently). Just key the following:

Type 10 (you don't have to press ENTER).
Press and hold down ON.
Press the top left key exactly twice while still holding ON down.
Release ON (see 0E10 in the display).
Press 1/X --> crash

Although it SEEMS to be an unrecoverable crash (neither ON nor ON/- do anything), you can recover by pressing ON and the top left key again.

The 16C must be in Float mode to do this.

If this was already known, pardon my excitement at rediscovering it. Big Grin

N.B. Don't leave your Voyager in this crashed condition. It looks like it's turned off, but it's actually running at full power.
