SendCalc

var

Sends variable

var

to the link port, where

another unit linked to that port can receive
the variable value. The receiving unit must be
on the Home screen or must execute

GetCalc

from a program.

If you send from a TI

-89 or TI-92 Plus to a

TI

-92, an error occurs if the TI-92 executes

GetCalc

from a program. In this case, the

sending unit must use

SendChat

instead.

SendChat

var

A general alternative to

SendCalc

, this is

useful if the receiving unit is a TI

-92 (or for a

generic "chat" program that allows either a
TI

-92 or TI-92 Plus to be used). Refer to

SendCalc

for more information.

SendChat

sends a variable only if that

variable is compatible with the TI

-92, which

is typically true in "chat" programs. However,

SendChat

will not send an archived variable,

a TI

-89 graph data base, etc.
