Hah! Makes sense now :-)

Quote:XLAT = Newl
Newl = "Newline (Ch 10)"

The only other 2 choices for XLAT (character translations) are:
Chr 128-159
Chr 128-255

There is no way to change it to "1" so I don't understand what you mean.

Newl and 1 are equivalent. In the "Transfer" menu (under I/O), it is displayed as Newl whereas if you press [Left Shift][1][ B] to view the IOPAR display, it is listed as 1. So what you have should be fine.

Quote:Stupid auto-correct also made another goof in my earlier post. It should have read this:

CHK: 3 (checksum)
3 = Three-digit CRC

There are 2 other choices in that popup:
One-digit arith
Two-digit arith


When I type VERSION on my 48GX, I see the following:

"Version HP48-R"
"Copyright HP 1993"

Yes, I have the 128k FRAM card properly inserted into Slot1 and I used MERGE1 to merge it. But now that you bring that up, how do I UNMERGE it?

Any further thoughts in light of this?

Thanks,

All your other settings look fine. I presume, then, that you switched from ASC mode over to BIN mode and that enabled you to download more of the metakernal file. Is this correct?

Here are the steps for installing metakernel.

1) MERGE your RAM card with main memory. (It takes more than 128KB of memory to download and install metakernal. This is why memory must be merged.)
2) Download the RECV.KER program -- this is the "installer" for metakernel.
3) Download MKRAM.KER -- this is the actual metakernel file.
4) Place 'MKRAM.KER' onto the stack (i.e. put the name of the variable holding the metakernel onto the stack)
5) Run RECV.KER with 'MKRAM.KER' on stack level one to "install"

You will not need to do anything to FREE your merged memory. This should be done by the installer.
