Card Reader Operations
All magnetic cards are alike physically. Depending upon the type of
information recorded upon it, however, a card may be considered
a program card, a data card, or even a mixed card (where one side
contains program information and the other side contains data).
Program Cards
Recording a Program onto a Card
A program that you have loaded into the HP-67 is not permanent—it
will be lost when you turn off the calculator. You can, however, save
any program permanently by recording it on a magnetic card.
To record a loaded program from program memory onto a magnetic
card:
1. Set the W/PRGM-RUN switch wirrem [[[[IllruN to W/PRGM.
2. Select a blank, unprotected (unclipped) magnetic card from the
packet of blank cards shipped with your HP-67.
3. Pass side 1 of the card through the card reader exactly as you
did when loading a prerecorded program from the card to the
calculator.
a.
If the program fills up only 112 steps or fewer of program
memory, the contents of all of program memory (that is, the
program instructions in steps 001 through 112 and the
instructions in steps 113 through 224) are recorded on side
1 of the card, steps 113 through 224 in a ''compressed'' form.
The calculator displays the current program memory step to
show you that the entire program has been recorded.
b.
If the program fills up more than 112 steps of program
memory (that is, if steps 113 through 224 contain instructions
other than (R/S])) the calculator displays
Crd
to
prompt you that another side of the card must be passed through
the card reader to record the entire program. Pass the second
side of the card through the card reader. The calculator then
displays the current program memory step to show you that
the entire program has been recorded.
