For some reason, when in Matrix entry mode, my rev.D hp48sx is NOT
advancing to the next cell after entering a number. Also, I
can't enter more than 1 number at a time. If I try (into a (- x 2) matrix)
1 <spc> 2 <enter> I get 1 0, which is quickly overwriten with 2 0.
Anyone have any idea whats going on?
Thanks.

eric schweitzer In theory, there is no difference
ershc@cunyvm.cuny.edu between theory and practice,
@cunyvm.bitnet But in practice there is.

Check the Owner's Manual on page 351, in the MatrixWriter section. There are two menu keys in the MatrixWriter that say "GO" with an arrow after them; they control where the cursor goes after entering a number. -- edp

Make sure that either GO\-> or GO(down) is active (box in menu label) The reason that 1 <spc> 2 <ENTER> puts 1 and then 2 into the same place is that the 48 interprets 1 <sps> 2 <ENTER> as 1 <ENTER> 2 <ENTER>. If neither GO is active, you don't change cells after the 1 <ENTER> so the 2 <ENTER> will overwrite the current cell.
