All FX Plus Series Models

These are confirmed to be working on all FX Plus Models (Excluding the FX-55 Plus)

Stat Sub mode 0

Stat Sub mode 0 is an invalid STAT mode that causes all available STAT functions & menus to be available in an unintended way, meaning that certain functions behave incorrectly or point to incorrect memory locations. The mode is a result of resetting the calculator with ON while it is writing the STAT mode into memory, causing the STAT mode to be set as mode 0.

  1. Enter COMP Mode.
  2. Enter the STAT mode selection menu.
  3. Press AC and approximately 0.5 seconds later, press ON. The exact timing varies. Just before the Disp text in the top right corner disappears is an ideal point of when to do it.
  4. You can check if STAT sub mode 0 is active by pressing SHIFT 1 and seeing if 5:Reg is displayed in the menu. The characters contained within the Regressions menu are not intended to be used in this mode and point to unintended memory addresses.
  5. If the reset is performed too early the Calculator will still be in COMP Mode. If the Calculator is in STAT mode but the Regressions menu is not shown, the reset was performed too late. In this case, go back to COMP mode and try again.
