Getting Started; Dual Keypads - Texas Instruments TI-NSPIRE User Manual

Getting Started

Your TI-Nspire™ handheld operates in two modes:
• TI-Nspire
• TI-84 Plus Silver Edition
There are two keypads, one for each mode, but your handheld has only
one operating system. The operating system for the TI-84 Plus keypad is
bundled with the TI-Nspire™ operating system. Both mode operating
systems are updated when you update the OS for the handheld. The
TI-84 Plus mode OS cannot be installed separately using a stand-alone
TI-84 Plus OS.
To learn about the capabilities and features of the TI-84 Plus mode, see
the TI-84 Plus guidebook on your CD or at education.ti.com. The
capabilities and features of the TI-Nspire mode are described in this
guidebook.
Note: There are many TI-84 Plus applications (Apps). Apps that are
certified by TI to be compatible with your TI-Nspire handheld will
operate correctly. All apps preinstalled on your handheld are certified.
Other applications that have not been certified may also operate
correctly, but some will not.
