QUIT : [EXIT]unless of course this is what you see. The items though provide access to a big list of tests to run on the calc. One is this strange color test that draws all the standard colors onto the screen.
Nice, were there any key combination to access that one [...]?
I think the best bet is to either wait for Casio to make an SD card version of the Prizm or we make a usb flash drive application.Do you mean like msd8x? I don't know if that's possible... We don't know anything at all about USB, and the Prizm doesn't even support mini-A.
Hey, I just found out how to enter the test mode without using an add-in (that is, no syscall interface needed):
1) Turn on your calculator by pressing [OPTN]+[EXP]+[AC/ON]
2) As soon as the popup window appears*, quickly type in: 5963
3) Et Voilà, the test mode shows up ;D
And this doesn't reboot the calculator when leaving.
*) Press [F1] for the diagnostic mode.
I guess the question we all have to ask is how did you figure this out?
2) As soon as the popup window appears*, quickly type in: 5963
Now, more importantly... are there any differences between this test mode and the one available through the syscall?There is one branch from the "factory use only" window into the test mode with R4 set to zero. Obviously, this is what happens when you type in 5963.
And something that has kept me wondering for months and may be related to the high number of Prizms dying: is there something that permanently changes in the system as soon as the test or diagnostic modes are accessed (like, some bit set in flash)?I did not check on this, but the test and diagnostic main menus do not seem to do any flash writing. However, there are quite a few RAM values that are read and written and I can't say if these values will be reset when leaving those menus or when rebooting the calculator.
Holy necropost, Batman!Sounds like a bad habit... but if a topic still provides accurate information that is neither wrong nor outdated, I don't see any reason why someone should open a new topic.
