I recently acquired an HP-71B, and am exploring it as time permits. I didn't get any documentation, but have the Museum CDs (and thus the Owners and Reference Manuals). The unit has two plugin modules, one labeled "USA REV 0 M114A1 1 OF 2", and the second the same except "2 OF 2". The modules seem to be 64K and 32K RAM modules, respectively. (I've learned the MEM and SHOW PORT commands.) I've removed the second module and the first seems to remain available as RAM. I guess my question is, can these modules be used independently, as on different machines? Does the 1 0F 2 label merely indicate the port precedence or required order if more than one module is used, or is it locked into use in PORT 1? Likewise with 2 OF 2? Just trying to figure out how flexibly these modules can be used.
Thanks,
Bill
