Annotating an aplet with notes

The Note view ( NOTE) attaches a note to the current aplet. See Chapter 15, “Notes and sketches”.

Annotating an aplet with sketches

The Sketch view ( SKETCH) attaches a picture to the current aplet. See chapter 15, “Notes and sketches”.

H I N T Notes and sketches that you attach to an aplet become part of the aplet. When you transfer the aplet to another calculator, the associated note and sketch are transferred as well.

Downloading e-lessons from the web

In addition to the standard aplets that come with the calculator, you can download aplets from the world wide web. For example, Hewlett-Packard’s Calculators web site contains aplets that demonstrate certain mathematical concepts. Note that you need the Graphing Calculator Connectivity Kit in order to load aplets from a PC.

Sending and receiving aplets

A convenient way to distribute or share problems in class and to turn in homework is to transmit (copy) aplets directly from one hp 39g+ to another. This takes place via the infrared port.

You can also send aplets to, and receive aplets from, a remote storage device (aplet disk drive or computer). This takes place via a cable connection and requires an aplet disk drive or special software running on a PC (such as the PC Connectivity Kit).
