How the HP 49G manages memory

The following section explains how the calculator manages memory in the

various ports.

Port 0

Port 0 and the HOME directory share the same memory space. This means
that objects stored in port 0 decrease the amormt of user memory

available, and objects stored in user memory decrease the amormt of

memoiy available in port 0.

Port 1

Port 1 contains 255 Kb of storage space. Because of the way port 1
memory is structured, you cannot store objects larger than 128 Kb. This is

because port 1 memory is in fact 2 discrete areas of 128 Kb. Objects must
be stored in either one of the two areas.

Because of this, when storing large objects it may appear that you have
enough memory in port 1 to store your object, but the calculator will not
allow you to store the object if it is bigger than the free space in either
area.
