Software Updates

Version 2.14 for HP48Gii, HP49G+
The Astro Module is separated out of the main program console. Great for
running on HP48Gii which has limited memory.

Fix bug in area calculation of closes
August 2004
Version 2.13 - for HP48Gii, HP49G+ and HP49G For HP48G+ and HP48GX the equivalent version is 2.02 (unchanged)
Version 2.13 fixes a bug in the close module and adapts the software for a
difference of the ROM used in HP48Gii and HP49G+ as compared to the HP49G.
This difference was affecting COGO, RADI and TRAV functions.
"Arc Length not displayed"
In
Quickclose version 3.01 running on an HP49G+ a problem was found where the
arc length was not displayed when entering the data in the Close
module. See the picture on the left for the correct display of the sample
from the Quickclose manual.
This only seems to happen in older ROM versions (i.c. Version 3.54,
Build 31) so the simplest way is to
update the ROM of your calculator to version 80 or later. You can do this
via the PC and the connectivity kit or via an SD memory card. See our
calculator hardware support pages for
more info.
Astro Module in
Version 3
Version 3 does not (yet) include the Astro module, as it
is not used very often any more these days. However, after
installing Version 3, you can install the Astro module from
version 2, which is also on the Quickclose CD. Note that
Astro will reside in its own directory on the calculator. As
it is not installed in or under the Quickclose directory, it
will not be backed up by the
->SD soft-key in
version 3.00 and 3.01. Version 3.1 corrects this issue.
