Hewlett Packard 82183A Extended I/O Module

• Type: Optional Calculator Accessory
• Size: 1 x 1 inch / 2.5 x 2.5 cm
• Serial number: none
• Date of Manufacture: February 1983

This module is intended to help you get more from your HP-IL setup by including some canned functions to directly control devices, copy files from one device to another, etc. The module appears in the calculator in four sections, listed below with each section's functions. Many functions refer to the primary device on the loop (as determined by the loop controller). Some of these are the exclusive domain of HP-IL gurus. Both of them. (No, no, don't explain them to me. I have the manual against the time I need the mystery explained. Just let me keep that sense of wonder for a little while longer, huh?)
