Description
----------This release of the HP Prime Graphing Calculator firmware addresses issues relat
ed to sensor detection when using the HP StreamSmart 410 (NW278AA). Only the Pr
ime Data Streamer application on the calculator has changed. The Virtual Calcula
tor and Connectivity Kit have not changed.
Backward Compatibility
---------------------This release only applies to the HP Prime Graphing Calculator (G8X92AA) and Stre
amSmart 410 (NW278AA). There is complete backward compatibility.
Target Customer
---------------------This release is for customers using the HP StreamSmart 410 (NW278AA). This is a
n optional release for customers who are not using the HP StreamSmart 410 (NW278
AA).
-----------------------------------None.
--------------------------------------None.
-------------------------------------None.
----------------------------------------1. When utilizing the HP StreamSmart 410 (NW278AA), the HP Prime Graphing Calcul

Description
---------------------There is limited backward compatibility between this and earlier releases.
Older Prime hardware (Revision A) does support this release, however the wireles
s, unit-to-unit, and data streamer functionality is not supported on earlier mod

els. In the Help->About HP Prime screen the hardware revision will be displayed
along with software version information. Mixing and matching software revisions
is not encouraged and may cause unexpected results. Users are strongly encourage
d to first backup their calculators with the older firmware and Connectivity Kit
- then upgrade all their calculator software (firmware, Connectivity Kit, and V
irtual Calculator). Upgrade the Connectivity kit first, before upgrading your c
alculator firmware. This order will produce the best experience.
The geometry application and inference have received significant updates and ear
lier data files will not be compatible. Old data files from earlier revisions wi
ll not load and and a new empty data file will overwrite the old one.
Due to some specific issues resolved, certain user programs may not run on the n
ew system without changes first. Specifically, any commands with the character i
n the name may need to be corrected to use the correct sigma character. Function
variables will now also error if the function parameter is using a reserved sys
tem function name (example: IN or COLOR). Additionally, the TRIANGLE commands w
ere modified to allow TRIANGLE, LINE and FILLPOLY to share similar data and synt
ax to enable easier creation of complex 3D drawings
-----------------------------------1.
Application has had major improvements to the user interface. Please ref
er to the included connectivity kit User's Guide for instructions and details.
2.
upport for the HP Wireless Classroom network has been introduced. Pleas
e see http://www.hp.com/calculators/ for details on the Wireless Classroom kit.
3.

g which only displays up to a specified number of digits, and rounded which is simi
lar to the fixed format except trailing zeros are suppressed.
9.
Decimal fractions now appear with a zero, as in 0.25.
10.
Vectors are now displayed as a single line object until they become a ma
trix. This aids in distinguishing vectors and matrices.

consistent way with each other. Useful for very complicated 3D drawing in user p
rograms.
19.
INPUT command can now create multi-page dialogs and contain choose boxes
, check boxes and grouped check boxes. It can also allow specific item types and
gives control of parsing behavior for input. It also supports size and position
control.
