Flags used by HP-82182A Time Module

Is this documented anywhere?

Yes, this additional flags usage is not documented in the HP41 manual, probably because most of the later peripherals were not yet available at the time the calculator was released.

But there is a book by J. S. Dearing with tricks, tips and routines for the 41 series (at least that's what the title of the German PDF version says). The appendix contains a flag overview with the following additional information:

Code:

flag#   use
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 15     printer mode on printers without mode switch:
 16     Man=00, Norm=01, Trace=10
 17     incomplete data record
 31     Time module: MDY=0, DMY=1
 32     IL-module: AUTOIO=0, MANIO=1
 33     for use with HP-IL development ROM
 34     Extended IO-ROM: ADRON=0, ADROFF=1
 35     for use with 00041-15042 ROM (autostart + cassette duplication)

Sorry, the book doesn't seem to have any information on this.
