General Operations
S
Start-S
The instruction "S" (used in creating a program) directs the computer to stop and release the
keyboard for the entry of figures or the selection of a subroutine. After figure entry, the
program is restarted by touching the Start key (5).
The program can also be restarted by touching a Routine Selection key. When the "S"
instruction stops the program, the computer may also be operated in the manual mode
without disturbing the program instructions in memory. Any figures entered on the keyboard
before depression of Start or an operation key will be printed automatically.
*
Clear
The clear operation "*" directs the computer to clear the selected register. The M and R
registers can not be cleared with this instruction.
When the computer is operated manually this key will also cause it to print the contents of the
selected register.
EXAMPLE: Assume register B contains 3.14159 prior to the execution of a B* instruction.
After execution of the instruction the register is blank. Note that the contents of other
registers are not affected.
