INITIAL SETUP
Mode Selection
Normal mode (NORMAL):
Used to perform arithmetic operations and function calculations.
Complex number mode (CPLX):
Used to perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers.
3-VLE mode (3-VLE):
Used to perform simultaneous linear equations with three unknowns.
Statistic mode (STAT):
Used to perform statistical calculations.
When executing mode selection, temporary memories, statistical
data and last answer memory will be cleared even when reselecting
the same mode.
Selecting the Display Notation and Decimal Places
The calculator has four display notation systems for displaying
calculation results. When FIX, SCI, or ENG symbol is displayed,
the number of decimal places can be set to any value between 0
and 9. Displayed values will be reduced to the corresponding
number of digits.

and GRAD (g).
Press

Arithmetic Operations

omitted.
Constant Calculations
• In the constant calculations, the addend becomes a constant.
Subtraction and division are performed in the same manner. For
multiplications, the multiplicand becomes a constant.
• When performing calculations using constants, constants will be
displayed as K.
Functions
• Refer to operation examples of each function.
• Before starting calculations, specify the angular unit.
Differential/Integral Functions
Differential and integral calculations are only available in the nor-
mal mode. For calculation conditions such as the x value in differ-
ential calculation or the initial point in integral calculation, only
numerical values can be entered and equations such as 2
be specified. It is possible to reuse the same equation over and
over again and to recalculate by only changing the conditions
without re-entering the equation.
• When performing a calculation, the value stored in the X memory
will be cleared.
• When performing a differential calculation, enter formula first
and then enter x value in differential calculation and minute
interval (dx). If a numerical value is not specified for minute

• When performing a integral calculation, enter formula first and
then enter a range of integral (a, b) and subintervals (n). If a
numerical value is not specified for subintervals, calculation will
be performed using n=100.
Since differential and integral calculations are performed based on
the following equations, correct results may not be obtained, in
certain rare cases, when performing special calculations which
contain discontinuous points.

[When performing integral calculations]
Integral calculations, depending on the
integrands and subintervals included, require
longer calculation time. During calculation,
"Calculating!" will be displayed. To cancel cal-
culation, press
. In addition, please note
that there will be greater integral errors when
there are large fluctuations in the integral val-
ues during minute shifting of the integral range
and for periodic functions, etc., where positive
and negative integral values exist depending
on the interval.
For the former case, divide integral intervals
as small as possible. For the latter case,
separate the positive and negative values.
Following these tips will allow results of cal-
culations with greater accuracy and will also
shorten the calculation time.
Random Numbers
A pseudo-random number with three significant digits can be gen-
erated by pressing
dom number, press
. You can perform this function in the
normal and statistics modes. (You cannot perform this function
while you are using the N-Base function.)
• Random numbers use memory Y. Each random number is gen-
erated on the basis of the value stored in memory Y (pseudo-
random number series).
Angular Unit Conversions
Each time
are pressed, the angular unit changes in
sequence.
Memory Calculations
The calculator has six temporary memories (A-D, X and Y), one
independent memory (M) and one last answer memory (ANS). EL-
506V is also equipped with formula memories (F1 and F2) for
to
storing formulas.

answer memory.

matically replace any existing equation in memory without notifica-
tion.
Note:

lations using a fraction, and conversion between a decimal number
and a fraction.
• In all cases, a total of up to 10 digits including integer, numera-
tor, denominator and the symbol (l) can be entered.
• If the number of digits to be displayed is greater than 10, the
number is converted to and displayed as a decimal number.
• A decimal number, variable, or exponent cannot be used in a
fraction.
Binary, Octal, Decimal, and Hexadecimal Operations
(N-Base)
This calculator can perform conversions between numbers ex-
pressed in binary, octal, decimal and hexadecimal systems. It can
also perform the four basic arithmetic operations, calculations with
parentheses and memory calculations using binary, octal, decimal,
and hexadecimal numbers. In addition, the calculator can carry out
the logical operations AND, OR, NOT, NEG, XOR and XNOR on
binary, octal and hexadecimal numbers.
Conversion to each system is performed by the following keys:
: Converts to the binary system. " " appears.
: Converts to the octal system. " " appears.
: Converts to the hexadecimal system. " " appears.
: Converts to the decimal system. " ", " ", and " "
disappear from the display.
Conversion is performed on the displayed value when these keys
are pressed.
Note: In this calculator, the hexadecimal numbers A – F are entered
by pressing
,
,
and displayed as follows:
A
, B
, C
, D
, E
In the binary, octal, and hexadecimal systems, fractional parts
cannot be entered. When a decimal number having a fractional
3.33 10
4
part is converted into a binary, octal, or hexadecimal number, the
33.33 10
3
fractional part will be truncated. Likewise, when the result of a
binary, octal, or hexadecimal calculation includes a fractional part,
the fractional part will be truncated. In the binary, octal, and hexa-
decimal systems, negative numbers are displayed as a comple-
ment.
Time, Decimal and Sexagesimal Calculations
Conversion between decimal and sexagesimal numbers can be
performed. In addition, the four basic arithmetic operations and
memory calculations can be carried out using the sexagesimal
system.

Calculations Using Physical Constants
(3)
See the quick reference card and the other side of the "Operation
Examples" sheet.
A constant is recalled by pressing
the physical constant. You have to designate the physical constant
using 2-digit numbers. For example, speed of light in vacuum
should be designated as "01".
The recalled constant appears in the display mode selected with
(4)
the designated number of decimal places.
Physical constants can be recalled in the normal mode (when not
set to binary, octal, or hexadecimal), 3-VLE mode, or statistics
(5)
mode.
Note: Physical constants and metric conversions are based either
on the 1986 values released by the Committee on Data for
Science and Technology (CODATA) of ICSU (International
2
cannot
Council of Scientific Unions) or on ISO specifications.
Metric Conversions
See the quick reference card and the other side of the "Operation

Unit conversions can be performed in the normal (when not set to
binary, octal, or hexadecimal), 3-VLE and statistics modes.

In this calculator, all calculation results are internally obtained in
scientific notation with up to 12 digits for the mantissa. However,
since calculation results are displayed in the form designated by
the display notation and the number of decimal places indicated,
the internal calculation result may differ from that shown in the
display. By using the modify function, the internal value is con-
verted to match that of the display, so that the displayed value can
be used without change in subsequent operations.
