CASIO Graphics Calculator FX-9750GII

Product Information

Overall, this calculator is so powerful that its use should be banned in GCE exams, but in fact it's approved! Its raison d'etre is to get you through the exam with flying colours, and in this respect, it excels.

The button layout and menu system of the 9750GII is almost identical to the 9860GII, and that’s a good thing. It's very important you know which model of CPU your calculator has, as this affects which BIOS image you'll flash onto the calculator. You can only see 6 command options at a time (5 if the option to scroll is taking up one of those slots). From the list screen, you can press the “F2” button (the tab on the screen shows CALC, so this takes you to the calculations options).The biggest difference between the 9750GII and 9860GII is the 9750GII’s the lack of “mathprint” formatting. Casio’s 9750 series is the budget alternative in a lineup of Casio graphing calculators that is already the affordable alternative to Texas Instruments. The SolveN facility solves many types of equation, as presented (even trig equations with multiple angles, e.

If that's not enough, you upgraded the operating system to give it a natural display, spreadsheet, document facility and the ability to take powerful add on apps (free of charge) which give it CAS facilities. Several improvements have been made since the release of the original fx-9750G and the fx-9750G+, as it now has 62 kb of usable memory instead of 28 kb, and has had two major revisions. Upon closer inspection, however, there are some other significant differences to be found between them which I will highlight in this review.Features icon menu system, data communications with PC and calculators, matrix/vector, metric conversions, 21 character x 8 line display and user memory. From the home screen, choose option 2 STAT by either pressing the “2” button or arrowing over to it and pressing the EXE button.

This means that exponents will use a carrot (“ From any screen, you can press the [MENU] button and be taken the main menu where you can run any of the 14 main apps on the calculator. You can't plot functions directly expressed in both x and y; they must expressed only in terms of one variable. You can obtain PDF manuals for the fx-9750GII, and these manuals will also cover the fx-9860GII/fx-9860GII-SD, with small changes as noted in those manuals.Incredibly easy to use: just think about where you'd expect the facility to be and how you'd expect to use it, and there it is! In fact, sometimes I have seen it for half of the big name calculators, and yet you can have a brand new graphing calculator.

The newer model uses a SH4a CPU, has a white case shell, with a deep blue keyboard surround, and is informally known as the fx-9750GII-2. Assuming it was allowed in an A-level Maths exam; in many instances, its extra facilities wouldn't compensate for it being slower to use. Later upgrades for the 9750gII/9860gII also remove the vector operations in favour of functionality suitable for examinations.

As the model is a cut-down fx-9860GII, selecting that under Graphic Models will bring you to the correct software. You'll need a copy of the latest fxRemote, a copy of the latest available fx-9860GII BIOS, the USB cable that connects your calculator to the computer, and finally a relatively fresh set of batteries.
