HP28S Program Wanted
Patrick Ryan
supposedly doubles the speed of the 28S. I checked out plains,
but couldn't find it. Anybody know what this program is called, and
where I can find it? Thanks...

SPEED - SET SPEED OF CALCULATOR.
THIS COMMAND WILL CHANGE THE SPEED OF THE 28S VERSION 2BB BY
MODIFYING THE SPEED NYBBLE. SPEED ACCEPTS A VALUE FROM 0 TO 15,
7 BEING THE SYSTEM DEFAULT. IF BATTERIES ARE LOW, DO NOT CRANK UP
THE SPEED TOO HIGH. SPEED SUFFERS FROM THE ANOMALY THAT THE SYSTEM
MAY SET ITSELF BACK TO ITS DEFAULT UNEXPECTEDLY. PRESSING THE
ON/ATTN KEY MAKES THE 28 REVERT BACK TO NORMAL SPEED. 15 IS ABOUT TWICE
NORMAL SPEED, AND 0 IS ABOUT ONE-THIRD NORMAL SPEED. CHANGE SPEED DOES
AFFECT BATTERY CONSUMPTION.
0 - 15 :

After a comprehensive review of the comp.sys.handhelds archive, which
can be found at the anonymous ftp site csl.sri.com (192.12.33.2), I felt
a need to post these programs. In the event that the hp28 has not gone
completely by the way of the dinosaurs, there might possibly be someone
who could use them.
First up, it appears that there was never a posting for the SPEED or
FAST program which does not have to be in the home directory, or that
requires a POKE program to work. Either of which seems ridiculous to
me because the code to poke the speed nibble is so short.
This program will conveniently create FAST which can be stored at any
location in the user memory. FAST works by changing the speed nibble
at #FFF00h from #7h to #Fh.
