SMI on HP48

I've been using SMI a long time. Never did figure that out. I made all my changes through using ADD at the Note Table prompt. There is nothing in the Version 7 manual on that. According to Version 8 manual, you might be able to find the list in "port2.bin" file.

Here's exactly what the Version 8 manual says:

Backing Up the Entire Job Listing
SMI stores all of your current job listings and all accompanying job data (coordinates, raw data, note table, cut sheets, chains, etc.) in one (1) storage file: Port2.bin. If you don?t want to use SMI Transfer to export every job and chain file, you can take this single file (similar to the contents of the RAM card that
was used in the HP 48) and back the whole file up to your PC desktop. Once SMI Version 8 is installed to your device or storage card, you can copy the Port2.bin file from the old installation location (/Emu48CE or /SMI Allegro, etc.) or the backed up location on your PC desktop and paste it into the new install location (/SMI). Be sure SMI isn?t running while performing this exercise.

Good Luck!

I just tried changing the port1.bin to port1.txt and opening it. Doesn't work.

LIke I said, Good Luck! 🙂

Ver 7 manual page 411

Keystrokes from the SETUP menu:

NOTE
a ?TBL (alpha uparrow TBL on the soft key)

the note table list will appear

highlight the note to edit

ECHO (softkey)

make change

ENTER

I was assuming JB wanted to make many changes to the Note Table. Yes, using ECHO or ADD are the normal ways for making changes right on the DC but I was thinking for some reason he wanted to make a lot of changes, maybe on PC, and then send them back to DC.

Isn't that a great program!!

JB,
With SMI Transfer you can download the NoteTable and edit it.
Also on the File menu (SMI Transfer) you can create a note table.
I have never done either and I don't know how you would
upload to the DC since there doesn't seem to be an option available
for that. Maybe a transfer using Kermit would work.
