TI-GRAPH LINK Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
My TI-GRAPH LINK for Macintosh program
does not see the group file in the CBL program
folder.
Within the older TI-GRAPH LINK for Macintosh
software, you have “All Objects” selected from
the pull-down menu at the bottom of the screen
that comes up when you try to link. You need to
have “Group” selected from that list of choices.
After you select Group, you should be able to
see all of the group files that we supply.
I cannot get programs to transfer to my TI-83
calculator, even though the cable is good and I
can transfer the LCD screen. Are you trying to use 2nd [ LINK ] on the
calculator to send the programs? Remember that
a TI-83 is very different from a TI-82 in this
respect. When you send programs from the
computer to a TI-83, you do not touch the
calculator except to turn it on and set it to the
home screen.
Can I load both PHYSICS and CHEMBIO on my
calculator?
The TI-73, 82, 83, 85 have only enough memory
to load one of the Vernier groups. The TI-83
Plus, 86, 89, 92, and 92 Plus have enough
memory to hold both.
I get a Link Transmission Error message.
•
Make certain the cable is firmly pushed into
the ports.
•
You could be running Graphical Analysis at
the same time, so the modem port is already
being occupied. Quit Graphical Analysis
and try again.
•
If you are using a Macintosh PowerBook,
you need to turn off AppleTalk from the
Chooser. Also, if you have an internal
modem, turn it off in the Control panel.
•
Make sure you clear all the memory on your
calculator before you load the group
program.
•
If you are using a TI-82 or TI-85, make sure
that you turn on the TI-82/85 calculator and
press
2nd [ LINK ]. Press , then
select 1:receive from the RECEIVE menu
(“Waiting...” appears on the TI-82/85
screen).
