Chapter 8: Error Messages

Certain operational procedures prohibit the V12 from completing calculations causing an error message to appear on the display screen, along with a number 0-9 that corresponds with the particular error condition. These errors are summarized below:

ERROR

CAUSE

0

The operation included a zero value that prevented calculation.

Example: 1 ÷ 0

 

1

The result is greater than the maximum possible number of

9.999999999 X 1099

2

A zero value is preventing statistical calculation

3

The IRR calculation can not be completed because more than

one answer is possible. An estimate of IRR may need to be

 

provided to overcome the error.

4

Memory error caused by an attempt to enter more than the

maximum number of program lines or go to a line that does not

 

contain instructions.

 

Error in calculating compound interest caused by entries such as

5

improper values of zero or sets of input that have no solution.

 

Example: n = 0 will not allow calculation of payments.

6

Maximum register capacity has been exceeded or a storage

register has been included in an operation that does not exist or is

 

being used for program memory.

7

For the inputs provided, no IRR can be calculated (often created

when no negative cash flow is provided).

 

8

Calendar error due to improper format or specification of dates

out of range of the calculator.

 

9

Service required. Contact Victor.
