    The IR Link allows you to control infrared devices from your calculator or communicate with other calculators (to play games or chat) over a wireless connection.

    » Link Cables
    Link cables let you transfer data files (such as programs) between your calculator and your computer.

    » Xpand
    The Voyage 200 has 2.7 MB of flash memory, but only 1 MB is available for the user as archive space. With Xpand by Olivier Armand, all of it can now be used as archive memory. Xpand patches your operating system to allow full usage of the flash without interfering with the ability to install flash applications.

    BASIC PROGRAMMING

    BASIC programming on the Voyage 200 is nearly identical to that of the 89, 92, and 92 Plus.

    Assembly language programming capability is built into the Voyage 200. Most assembly programs that work for the 92 Plus will also work with the Voyage 200.

    For software development, we recommend GCC4TI.
