this is for Pedrom recompilation.
for the installation, you need tibrecvr (which won't work on AMS > 2.05 or on V200), and a program able to send a tib file to your calc.
you have to wait for tibrcvr to be ported
I have the TI-89 with the SilverLink (USB) cable. My problem is in getting the TIB over to the calculator. TI-CONNECT says it can't read the data from it and TiLP is just ... not working ... Any ideas?
PpHd Le 18/12/2003 à 06:42 Convert the TIB into a 89u and uses tilp.
Add the file header from a true 89u using a hex editor.
I've gone back to trying to send the TIB using TI-Connect 1.3 to my TI-89 ... Can I do this? It give me the error message of "Incompatible with Device" ... Is there any way to solve this?
Well ... when converting from tib to 89u, which part of the "header" do i want to copy? What constitutes the header?
hibou Le 21/12/2003 à 13:01 Open the pedrom tib and the AMS 89u with a hexadecimal editor, and compare them.
Add to the pedrom tib the bytes which appear in the AMS file and not in the pedrom file.
To help you, you will find in the two files : "Advanced Mathematic Sofware" . At the end, this words would be exactly at the same place in the two files.
Here's how i converted the "pedrom89.tib" to "pedrom89.89u":
1) i used the header file from an AMS 2.09 for my example.
2) open the pedrom89.tib in Hex Workshop or something similar.
3) now open an official TI-89 AMS. you can download the current version from their website. the most current one is: "TI89OS209.89u". open that file in Hex Workshop or using another hex editor.
4) in "TI89OS209.89u", copy the header information. that's everything from the beginning of the file up to the "." after the "Advance Mathematics Software".
5) switch to "pedrom89.tib" and position the cursor at the very beginning of the file and hit "CTRL-V" or simply paste/insert it into the file and save it. if you're having trouble, just open "pedrom89.tib" and copy the long series of characters below from 2A2A5... all the way to 26503 and paste/insert it at the beginning of the "pedrom89.tib" file.

6) after saving it, close Hex Workshop or whichever hex editor you used and rename the ".tib" extension to ".89u". thats it. be sure to test it under Virtual TI, just to make sure it works.
To install PedroM:
1) i had some trouble understanding the instructions on installing PedroM to my calc, so i hope this clears some things up.
2) download "megamem". to find it on the net, use [google][/google] and type in "megamem" in the search box. you should find a link somewhere to download the current version.
3) download "TiLP" and install that on your PC. again use [google][/google] to find the latest version.
4) send "tibrcvr.89z" to your TI-89.
5) type "tibrcvr", without the quotes on the homescreen. it should saying something like recieving...
6) run "TiLP (MFC)" on your computer, and go to Misc -> Send OS upgrade. follow the instructions.
7) before actually sending the modified "pedrom89.89u" to your calc, make sure that "tibrcvr" is currently running on your calc. it should say recieving... at the bottom of your screen on the calculator.
8) now send the pedrom.89.89u to your calculator. the progress is shown on both your computer screen and the lower right hand side of your calculator screen.
9) you now have PedroM OS on your calc.
i hope i didn't offend any of you guys. it took me a long time to type this, so i hope this will solve most of other newbies PedroM install questions.
PpHd Le 03/02/2004 à 09:20 5) Why did you say without the quotes?
Well, you need the TIB Receiver on the calculator side.
At best, TiLP could send it automatically and execute it remotely, but I am not convinced that this is a good idea.
