We are celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Emu48 at http://hp.giesselink.com/20ann48.htm. The Emu48 v1.0 binary in the original archive has the date code 07/19/1997! These sources founded a family of HP calculator emulators namely Emu10, Emu28, Emu42, Emu48 and Emu71 with a lot of different calculators.

Some of the emulators or KML scripts from above are not available in the public because of ROM copyright reasons. ROM's of these calculators cannot be extracted over an interface from an original machine.

The classic version of Emu48 v1.59 is available at http://hp.giesselink.com.

This is a maintenance update introducing a help file in HTML and some new KML script commands. The documentation of the new commands will be published when Emu71 is distributed with these updates too. This should avoid confusing customers about the implementation state of each emulator.

A complete list of bugfixes and changes is available here.

What's even more incredible about the work that Christoph did in emulating the behavior of the beeper is that even the sampled sound demos, such as the following, seem to work perfectly on Emu48, possibly even better than on the real calculator!

I, too, am seriously impressed with all the work Christoph has done over the years. I can honestly say that my site would not be what it is today without his work, because the emulator is a critical timesaver in analyzing new software and preparing screenshots and descriptions, and before Christoph took over, Emu48 would not have served my needs.

Thanks Eric for your web site (20 years)

PD: Also thanks for incorporating my idea of allowing x-y zoom

PHP Code:

Lcd
    Zoomxy 2 3
    Offset  20  20
    Color  0 112 157 114
    Color  1 112 157 114
    Color  2 104 145 106
    Color  3  94 131  95
        ... 

$[Image: emu48_zoom_2x1x_image00.png]$

Fabulous now you can make a scale (Scale x y) of the whole skin

PHP Code:

Global
    Title  "HP-48GX"
    Author "HP"
    Model  "G"
    Rom    "ROM/48GX_R.ROM"
    Patch  "ROM/48SGX.PATCH"
    Bitmap "BMP/48GX.BMP"
    Debug  0
    Icon "BMP/emu48.ico"
    Scale 2 1
...
End

I've (tried to) download the emulator and found a couple issues:

1. Win10 refuses to run the .exe file.

2. After installation (on a Win 7 machine), all of the skins do not appear in the dropdown box in the emulator window.

PS: I'd really like a skin that will fill my Win10 pad 800x1280.

At least on my machine (32-bit Vista) installation worked fine. It even prompted for the removal of the previously-installed EMU48. Once installed, I appear to have the following skins:

Casey's Gx with toolbar and touchscreen
Casey's Sx with toolbar and touchscreen
Casey's Real Gx
Casey's Real Sx
Emu48's Default faceplate for HP38G
Emu48's Default faceplate for HP48G/GX
Emu48's Default faceplate for HP48S/SX
Eric's Real 38G for 800x600
Eric's Real 39G for 800x600
Eric's Real 40G for 800x600
Eric's Real 48GX for 800x600
Eric's Real 48SX for 800x600
Eric's Real 49G for 1024x768
Eric's Real 49G for 800x600
Floating Buttons for GX
Jemac's GX
Wombat3 48Gx
Wombat3 48Sx

I installed to default location: C:\Program Files\HP-Emulators\Emu48, presumably I would have been asked to confirm installation into this directory.
