Peeking at and displaying values in CPU registers or specific memory locations wouldn't be unreasonable, though.

However this has little to do with stack display font, it rather pertains to SI section.

That is fair I suppose. The real question is whether they will to allow or prevent others from doing it? If they hide the source code, it is not feasible for others to improve it beyond what SM want or can do.

Ask them, I have no answer. But, rather than hide, I'd use do not disclose.

The source code of the 41 NUT OS is available and widely known; it has been released under NOMAS conditions since 1983.

There are also some useful extensions included in the 41X ROMS compiled/written by Angel Martin - please contact him if you'd like to see those.

The source code of the emulation layer is not available, so things that cross the NUT/Emulation boundary will not be feasible for 3rd parties.

Hello

I wonder how it possible to change the speed on the DM 41X.

I received my calculator from SwissMicros about 10 days ago and my SN is :00078.

Thank you

Since I wrote, I found the link to the DM41x User Manual, so.

Have a good day

I’ve been told that the link to register an interest in buying a DM41X may be buried somewhere in this article - can someone point me to whereabouts please?

Hi there

Just ordered a DM41X, currently own DM16, DM16L, I have some questions, perhaps answers in thread sorry if I missed.

1. Are the key markings on the device different than the Voyager clones? I found that the decals started coming off my 16L after a month or so. Disappointing as the devices build is excellent.

2. Any HP module supplied (in software I think I heard)? and is there a source for (.mod) modules that are also available free, I mean a web link repo. Not trying to break copyright here, only free stuff.

Thanks and stay safe.
Ed

Check the swiss micros forum for quick answers to these questions.

Hello,

I am now a proud owner of a new DM41X. First impressions- Amazing product!

Working through the manual, I did have an issue though:
How to activate the USB disk on a Mac? I plugged into into the USB port on my Mac then SETUP / FILE> / 5. Activate USB Disk. But I don't see it mounted in the Finder. Perhaps operator error? I'm running macOS Catalina (10.15.7).

Thanks,
Steve

It could be your USB cable. The port is recessed kind of far into the case, and unless you're using a cable with an especially long connector, you might not be getting a good (or any) connection.

If you have a cable with a soft rubber shield on the plug, you can use a small knife to trim it back and allow the plug to go all the way in without the shield hitting the calculator's case.

Good call Dave, that was it. I tried another connector with a shorter jacket.

Thanks much for the diagnosis!

As I'm putting the DM41X through it's paces, where is the best place to post bugs/issues (so far I've noticed an issue with loading RAW files from the FAT disk)? Is there a support email address, or perhaps I should sign up on the swissmicros forum? I do see a 'Software Issues' forum but I wasn't sure if that was mainly for beta units? I don't want to weight down this forum if there are better reporting channels.

Thanks!
Steve

It's best to post them on the SwissMicros Forum in the DM41X Software Issues subforum, here:

https://forum.swissmicros.com/viewforum.php?f=26

That area was used for bug discussions during the Beta phase, but now is used for released f/w as well.

Thanks

It would be much more reasonable if a suitable USB cable were included in the scope of delivery. Above all, that would help avoid a lot of frustration and anger on both sides. It is remarkable that the manufacturer has not responded to this problem to date.

This seems to be a tolerance issue with the board/case assembly.
My DM42 requires a trimmed cable but my DM41X is happy with any cable that I throw at it.

Whether it's a tolerance problem or a misconstruction doesn't matter as a cause, the manufacturer has known this for a long time and still has no adequate solution to offer. Compared to the price of the device actually incomprehensible!
