INSTRUCTIONS FOR BODE PLOTTER
First download and install the bode plot routines from
the earlier posting. Enter the BODE directory. You sould
see [BODED] [MAG] [ANG] [SMOO] in the first 4 menu entries.
An example has been preloaded so just press [MAG] to see
the magnitude plot for the tranfer function:
H(s)=[50*(s*(1+s/10))]/[(1+s/10^4)*(1+s/10^7)]
Once the plot has completed use the arrow keys to move the
cursor around the screen. You can press [COORD] to get the
cursor coordinates. The X-coordinate is the frequency (rad/s)
in decades (e.g. x=1.5 => 10^1.5 rad/s). Tick marks are every
decade. The Y-coordinate is in decibels (e.g. y=20 => 20 dB).
Tick marks are every 20 dB. Now press [ON] to return to the
menu. Next press [ANG] to see the angle bode plot. The X-
coordinate is once again the frequency (rad/s)in decades (e.g.
x=1.5 => 10^1.5 rad/s). Tick marks are every decade. The Y-
coordinate is in degrees (e.g. y=20 => 20 degrees). Tick marks
are every 20 degrees. Press [ON] to return to the menu.
Now we will step through an example from the beginning.
Press [BODED]. A temporary menu is created and the calculator
is halted. The menu should now look like this:
[S] [EQN] [BD] [ED] [PPD] [CONT]
and if you press [NXT] you should see [ABORT]. You will now
enter the tranfer function:
100*s/[(1+s/10)*(1+s/10^4)*(1+s/(2*10^4))]
Next store it into EQN (left shift [EQN]). After that specify a
beginning decade (0 left shift [BD]), ending decade (7 left shift
[ED]), and the points per decade (7 left shift [PPD]). The higher
PPD is, the longer the calculator will take, but a more accurate
plot will result. Now press [CONT]. If you had wished to cancel
the plot you could have pressed [NXT] [ABORT]. You will have to
wait for approx. 90 seconds for the calculator to finish its
computations. Once it is done you will hear 2 short beeps if BEEP
is enabled. As before press [MAG] to view the magnitude plot of a
band-pass filter and [ANG] to produce the angle plot. If you ever
press [ANG] and the plot is split in two (due the value returned
by the ARG function), then press [SMOO] to smooth out the plot and
press [ANG] again. Do not use [SMOO] unless the plot is split
otherwise the angle values taken from the plot will be incorrect.

Why the heck don't you post this in ASCII? Do you think everybody has a UNIX account, and modem, and PC and a cable to his HP48? (I do, but that's not the point :-)

My school is lucky to have BITNET.Not all the people out here who are interested in the HP calculators have access to UNIX systems. I have gotten the impression that since many of the people at the " BIG INSTITUTIONS" with their fancy computers,think every one of us out here also has one or has access to one. I am working off of a Commodore-128 right now from my home. I do use an IBM PC and mainframe for some of my engineering classes when I am at school but not for all of my work. Please ,try to remember that many people on the net do not have the same type of system as you do ,when you post stuff. Harold Climer Physics Department U. Tennessee at Chattanooga Yes Virginia, you can download 48 files in ASCII and BINARY from and to a C64 or C128 using KERMIT 2.2 for the 6502 and an RS-232 adapter. With a cartridge called Swift-Link up to 38400 Baud. (If the calculator would support it) Amazing ain't it. Thought the 64 and 128 were dead huh ? ;)

Thought the 64 and 128 were dead huh ? ;) Can you guys remember the first time you posted? Was it that simple? I think your a bit out of line jumping on someone's case before you know any details or offering any help. And as far as "BIG INSTITUTIONS" with thier fancy computers. Whats that about? A complex maybe or possibly you find it hard to belive people with access to some very nice computing equipment might not be experts at everything? Get a life. Matt Helgren Computer Science U of Wisc P.S. Yes we do have fancy computers!
