Inputting Expressions and
Values
k Inputting a Calculation Expression Using
Standard Format
Your calculator lets you input calculation expressions just as they
are written. Then simply press the = key to execute it. The calculator
automatically judges the calculation priority sequence for addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division, functions, and parentheses.
Example: 2 (5 + 4) 2 (3) =
LINE
2(5+4)-
2*y3=
Inputting a Function with Parenthesis
When you input any of the functions shown below, it is automatically
input with the open parenthesis ( ( ) character. Next, you need to
input the argument and the closing parenthesis ( ) ).
sin(, cos(, tan(, sin
1
(, cos
1
(, tan

'(, Abs(, Pol(, Rec(,
Rnd(
Example: sin 30 =
LINE
s30)=
Pressing s inputs sin(.
Note that the input procedure is different if you want to use Math
format. For more information, see Inputting with Math Format.
Omitting the Multiplication Sign
You can omit the multiplication sign () in any of the following cases.
Before an open parentheses ( ( ): 2 (5 + 4), etc.
Before a function with parenthesis: 2 sin(30), 2 '(3), etc.
Before a variable name, constant, or random number:
20 A, 2 , etc.
Final Closed Parenthesis
You can omit one or more closed parentheses that come at the end
of a calculation, immediately before the = key is pressed. For
details, see Omitting a Final Closed Parenthesis.
E-11
Displaying a Long Expression
The display can show up to 14 characters at a time. Inputting the
15th character causes the expression to shift to the left. At this time,
the ] indicator appears to the left of the expression, indicating that
it runs off the left side of the screen.
Input expression: 1111 + 2222 + 3333 + 444
Displayed portion:
When the ] indicator is displayed, you can scroll left and view the
hidden part by pressing the d key. This will cause the ' indicator
to appear to the right of the expression. At this time, you can use
the e key to scroll back.
Number of Input Characters (Bytes)
You can input up to 99 bytes of data for a single expression.
Basically, each key operation uses up one byte. A function that
requires two key operations to input (like 1s(sin
1
)) also uses
only one byte. Note, however, that when you are inputting functions
with Math format, each item you input uses up more than one
byte. For more information, see Inputting with Math Format.
Normally the input cursor appears as a straight vertical (
I
) or
horizontal ( ) flashing line on the display screen. When there are
10 or fewer bytes of input remaining in the current expression, the
cursor changes shape to
I
to let you know. If the
I
cursor
appears, terminate the expression at a convenient point and
calculate the result.
k Correcting an Expression
This section explains how to correct an expression as you are
inputting it. The procedure you should use depends on whether you
have insert or overwrite selected as the input mode.
About the Insert and Overwrite Input Modes
With the insert mode, the displayed characters shift to the left to
make room when you input a new character. With the overwrite mode,
any new character you input replaces the character at the current
cursor position. The initial default input mode is insert. You can change
to the overwrite mode when you need it.
The cursor is a vertical flashing line (
I
) when the insert mode is
selected. The cursor is a horizontal flashing line ( ) when the
overwrite mode is selected.
The initial default for Linear format input is the insert mode. You
can switch to the overwrite mode by pressing 1Y(INS).
Cursor
Math
E-12
With Math format, you can only use the insert mode. Pressing
1Y(INS) when the Math format is selected does not switch to
the overwrite mode. See Incorporating a Value into a Function for
more information.
The calculator automatically changes to the insert mode whenever
you change the input/output format from Linear to Math.
Changing the Character or Function You Just Input
Example: To correct the expression 369 13 so it becomes
369 12

Inserting Input into a Calculation
Always use the insert mode for this operation. Use d or e to
move the cursor to the location where you want to insert new input,
and then input what you want.
k Displaying the Location of an Error
If an error message (like Math ERROR or Syntax ERROR)
appears when you press =, press d or e. This will display the
part of the calculation where the error occurred, with the cursor
positioned at the error location. You can then make necessary
corrections.
Example: When you input 14 0 2 = by mistake instead of 14
10 2 =
Use the insert mode for the following operation.
LINE
14/0*2=
Press e or d.
This is causing the error.
d1
=
You can also exit the error screen by pressing A, which clears the
calculation.
E-14
k Inputting with Math Format
When inputting with Math format, you can input and display fractions
and some functions using the same format as they appear in your
textbook.
Important!
Certain types of expressions can cause the height of a calculation
formula to be greater than one display line. The maximum allowable
height of a calculation formula is two display screens (31 dots 2).
Further input will become impossible if the height of the calculation
you are inputting exceeds the allowable limit.
Nesting of functions and parentheses is allowed. Further input will
become impossible if you nest too many functions and/or
parentheses. If this happens, divide the calculation into multiple
parts and calculate each part separately.

etc. (Irrational Number Form)
When MthIO is selected for the input/output format, you can specify
whether calculation results should be displayed in a form that includes
expressions like '2 and (irrational number form).
Pressing = after inputting a calculation displays the result using
irrational number form.
Pressing 1= after inputting a calculation displays the result
using decimal values.
Note
When LineIO is selected for the input/output format, calculation
results are always displayed using decimal values (no irrational
number form) regardless of whether you press = or 1=.
form (form that includes within irrational number display) display
conditions are the same as those for S-D conversion. For details,
see Using S-D Transformation.

outside of the above ranges.
k ' Form Calculation Range
Results that include square root symbols can have up to two terms
(an integer term is also counted as a term).
' form calculation results use display formats like those shown
below.
The following shows the range for each of the coefficients (a, b, c, d,
e, f ).
1 < a < 100, 1 < b < 1000, 1 < c < 100

Example:
The underlined areas in the above examples indicate what caused
decimal form to be used.
Reasons why the results of the examples are displayed in
decimal form
- Value outside of the allowable range
- More than two terms in the calculation result
Calculation results displayed in ' form are reduced to a common
denominator.
c is the least common multiple of c and f.
Since calculation results are reduced to a common denominator,
they are displayed in ' form even if coefficients (a, c, and d)
are outside the corresponding ranges of coefficients (a, c, and d).
Example:
The result is displayed in decimal form even when any intermediate
result has three or more terms.
Example: (1 + '2 + '3 )(1 '2 '3 )(= 4 2'6 )
= 8.898979486
If a term is encountered during the calculation cannot be displayed
as a root (') form or a fraction, the calculation result is displayed
in decimal form.
Example: log3 + '2 = 1.891334817
2'3 4 = 8'3
35'2 3 = 148.492424

decimal (D) form and its standard (S) form (fraction, ).
Formats Supported for S-D Transformation
S-D transformation can be used to transform a displayed decimal
calculation result to one of the forms described below. Performing
S-D transformation again converts back to the original decimal value.
Note
When you transform from decimal form to standard form, the
calculator automatically decides the standard form to use. You
cannot specify the standard form.
Fraction: The current fraction display format setting determines
whether the result is an improper fraction or mixed
fraction.
: The following are the forms that are supported.
This is true only in the case of Math format.
n (n is an integer.)
c
d

or
c
b

k Start, End, and Step Value Rules
Linear format is always used for value input.
You can specify either values or calculation expressions (which
must produce a numeric result) for Start, End, and Step.
Specifying an End value that is less than the Start value causes
an error, so the number table is not generated.
The specified Start, End, and Step values should produce a
maximum of 30 x-values for the number table being generated.
Executing a number generation table using a Start, End, and Step
value combination that produces more than 30 x-values causes
an error.
Note
Certain functions and Start, End, Step value combinations can
cause number table generation to take a long time.
k Number Table Screen
The number table screen shows x-values calculated using the
specified Start, End, and Step values, as well as the values obtained
when each x-value is substituted in the function f(x).
Note that you can use the number table screen for viewing values
only. Table contents cannot be edited.
Pressing the A key returns to the function editor screen.
k TABLE Mode Precautions
Note that changing the input/output format settings (Math format or
Linear format) on the calculators setup screen while in the TABLE
Mode clears the number table generation function.

Technical Information
k Calculation Priority Sequence
The calculator performs calculations according to a calculation priority sequence.
Basically, calculations are performed from left to right.
Expressions within parentheses have the highest priority.
The following shows the priority sequence for each individual command.
1. Function with parentheses:
Pol(, Rec(
sin(, cos(, tan(, sin
1
(, cos
1
(, tan
1
(, sinh(, cosh(, tanh(, sinh
1
(, cosh
1
(,
tanh

log(, ln(, e^(, 10^(, '(,

Abs(
Rnd(
2. Functions preceded by values, powers, power roots:

, x!, , ,

Percent %
3. Fractions: a
b
/c
4. Prefix symbol: () (negative sign)
5. Statistical estimated value calculation: m, n, m1, m2
6. Permutations, combinations: nPr, nCr
7. Multiplication and division: ,
Multiplication where sign is omitted: Multiplication sign omitted immediately
before , e, variables (2, 5A, A, etc.), functions with parentheses (2'(3),
Asin(30), etc.)
8. Addition and subtraction: +,
If a calculation contains a negative value, you may need to enclose the negative
value in parentheses. If you want to square the value 2, for example, you need to
input: (2)
2
. This is because x
2
is a function preceded by a value (Priority 2,
above), whose priority is greater than the negative sign, which is a prefix symbol
(Priority 4).
Example:
y2w= 2
2
= 4
(y2)w= (2)
2
= 4
Multiplication and division, and multiplication where the sign is omitted are the
same priority (Priority 7), so these operations are performed from left to right
when both types are mixed in the same calculation. Enclosing an operation within
parentheses causes it to be performed first, so the use of parentheses can result
in different calculation results.
Example:
1/215()= 1 2 = 1.570796327
1/(215())= 1 (2) = 0.1591549431
E-45
kStack Limitations
This calculator uses memory areas called stacks to temporarily store lower
calculation priority sequence values, commands, and functions. The numeric stack
has 10 levels and the command stack has 24 levels, as shown in the illustration
below.
A Stack ERROR occurs when the calculation you are performing causes the
capacity of either stack to be exceeded.
kCalculation Ranges, Number of Digits, and
Precision
The calculation range, number of digits used for internal calculation, and calculation
precision depends on the type of calculation you are performing.

point and inflection point.
kError Messages
The calculator will display an error message when a result exceeds the calculation
range, when you attempt an illegal input, or whenever any other similar problem
occurs.
When an error message appears...
The following are general operations you can use when any error message
appears.
Pressing d or e displays to the calculation expression editing screen you
were using before the error message appeared, with the cursor located at the
position of the error. For more information, see Displaying the Location of an
Error.
Pressing A clears the calculation expression you input before the error message
appeared. You can then re-input and re-execute the calculation, if you want.
Note that in this case, the original calculation will not be retained in calculation
history memory.
Math ERROR
Cause
The intermediate or final result of the calculation you are performing exceeds
the allowable calculation range.
Your input exceeds the allowable input range (particularly when using
functions).
The calculation you are performing contains an illegal mathematical operation
(such as division by zero).
Action
Check the input values, reduce the number of digits, and try again.
When using independent memory or a variable as the argument of a function,
make sure that the memory or variable value is within the allowable range for
the function.
Stack ERROR
Cause
The calculation you are performing has caused the capacity of the numeric
stack or the command stack to be exceeded.
Action
Simplify the calculation expression so it does not exceed the capacity of the
stack.
Try splitting the calculation into two or more parts.
Syntax ERROR
Cause
There is a problem with the format of the calculation you are performing.
Action
Make necessary corrections.
E-48
Insufficient MEM Error
Cause
There is not enough memory to perform your calculation.
Action
Narrow the table calculation range by changing the Start, End, and Step values,
and try again.
kBefore assuming malfunction of the calculator...
Perform the following steps whenever an error occurs during a calculation or when
calculation results are not what you expected. If one step does not correct the
problem, move on to the next step.
Note that you should make separate copies of important data before performing
these steps.
(1) Check the calculation expression to make sure that it does not contain any
errors.
(2) Make sure that you are using the correct mode for the type of calculation you
are trying to perform.
(3) If the above steps do not correct your problem, press the O key. This will
cause the calculator to perform a routine that checks whether calculation
functions are operating correctly. If the calculator discovers any abnormality,
it automatically initializes the calculation mode and clears memory contents.
For details about initialized settings, see Initializing the Calculation Mode
and Other Settings under Calculation Modes and Calculator Setup.
(4) Initialize all modes and settings by performing the following operation:
19(CLR) 1(Setup) =(Yes).

k Power Requirements and Battery
Replacement
fx-85ES/fx-300ES
Your calculator uses a TWO WAY POWER system that combines a
solar cell with button battery (LR44 (GPA76)).
Normally, calculators equipped with a solar cell alone can operate
only when relatively bright light is present. The TWO WAY POWER
system, however, lets you continue to use the calculator as long as
there is enough light to read the display.
Replacing the Battery
Dim display figures when available lighting is dim or failure of anything
to appear on the display immediately when you turn on the calculator
indicates that button battery power is low. Note that you will not be
able to use the calculator if its button battery is dead. When any of
these symptoms occur, replace the button battery.
Even if the calculator is operating normally, replace the battery at
least once every three years.
E-49
Important!
Removing the button battery from the calculator causes
independent memory contents and values assigned to variables
to be cleared.
1 Press 1A(OFF) to turn off the
calculator.
To ensure that you do not
accidentally turn on power while
replacing the battery, slide the hard
case onto the front of the calculator.
