TI-58/59 Programming Guide
Introduction
The TI-58, TI-58C and TI-59 Programmable Calculator will store a sequence of instructions and execute them accordingly. In this way, the TI-58/59 is a bona fide computing devide. It will store values, perform conditional branching, and do many other things that conventional computers do. The programming language that the TI-58/59 uses is essentially the keys on the calculator itself. Each is stored as a separate instruction. As TI-58/59 programs unfold, they bear a striking resemblance to assembly language programs.
-
How to Program
When in calculator mode, the TI-58/59 functions just like an ordinary calculator. It is in the Learn mode that instructions are stored. Press the LRN key to enter the learn mode. Note that the display changes. There are 3 zeroes, a space, and then 2 zeroes:
|
000 |
00 |
The first set of zeroes is the step number. Since programs are comprised of a series of steps, the sequence is vital. The step number keeps track of this.
The second set of zeroes indicates the code of the instruction at that sequence. As previously stated, the programming language of the TI-58/59 is simply the calculator keys available. Each key is given a numeric code. Note that the keypad is 5 keys across, and 9 keys down. This makes it possible to identify each key with a 2-digit number, or "instruction code." For example, the square root key would be represented by the instruction code 34, because it is in the 3rd row down, and the 4th key across.
Note also that the TI-58/59 assigns multiple functions to the same key. Utilizing the 2nd key will perform a different function. For example, pressing the 2nd key and then the square root key will effect the cos function. In this case, a similar instruction code is generated, but it is 5 + the number of keys across. For example the instruction code for the cos key is 39.
-
Entering a Program
Let's enter a simple program. We'll create a program that multiplies a value by 2. Turn on the calculator, press the LRN key, and press the multiplication key, the two key, and the equals key. Each time you press a key, note that the sequence number increments. This is because you're adding instruction sequences each time you press a key.
You can step through a program using the SST and BST keys, which are single step and back step respectively. Press BST and the sequence number will move back to 002. Note that the instruction code is 95. This makes sense because the equals key is on the 9th row and 5th column of the key pad. Pressing BST and SST will back step and single step all the way through the program.
Consider our program in this representation:
|
000 |
65 |
x |
|
001 |
02 |
2 |
|
002 |
95 |
= |
Note a couple of things. First of all, the first instruction has the sequence 000. Might as well ge used to counting from zero right away. Zero is a number. Although it has a numerical value of nothing, it is a valid identifier. The first instruction has the sequence 000. Note also that the instruction code for the digit 2 is not what you'd expect. Normally it would be 83, for the 8th row and 3rd column. But instead it's represented as 02. I don't know why. Since the first row on the keypad is considered row 1, anything beginning with 0 can be considered to be a digit. Since each digit is stored separately, all ten digits can be represented in this way.
-
Flow Control
There are a couple of other keys you must understand before being able to execute a program. One is the RST key. This stands for reset, and it puts the sequence pointer back to 000. Try it.
Press SST or BST until you're on sequence 002. Press the LRN key to get out of learn mode.
Press LRN again to get back into learn mode. Note that you're still on sequence 002. Press LRN again to get out of learn mode. Now press the RST key. Press the LRN key again to get back into learn mode. Notice that the sequence pointer is no longer on step 002, but that it has been "reset" back to step 000. Generally after you input a program you're going to want to reset the sequence pointer back to the beginning before execution.
The other important key is the R/S key. This stands for "Run/Stop". Pressing this will cause the program to begin or stop execution.
-
Executing the Program
To execute a program you must be out of learn mode. If you are in learn mode, press the LRN key to get back into calculator mode. Press the RST key to ensure that the sequence pointer is back at the beginning of the program. Our program is designed to muliply a number by two. Let's start small. Press the 6 key. With the number 6 in the display, this is the number that will be operated upon by our program when execution starts. It's no different than if we started manually pressing they keys that comprise our program. It's just that the TI-58/59 will execute these nstructions automatically for us.
Press the R/S key to begin executing the program. Note that the calculator seems to go off into never-never land. If you let it run long enough the number 0 will begin to flash in the display. Press the LRN key to enter learn mode. Note that you're at sequence 239 or 479. This is the maximum number of steps available to the TI-58/59 programmable calculator.
What went wrong? Well if you look closely at the program, you'll note that we never told execution to stop. The calculator will dutifully execute our instructions of multiplying by two, but then it continues executing null instructions until it runs out of sequence numbers.
The solution is to use the R/S as an actual programming instruction. This will cause execution to stop when the instruction is encountered. To do this, get out of learn mode and press RST to reset the sequence pointer. Get back into learn mode, and you'll see that the sequence pointer is back on 000. Press SST until we're on sequence 003. Note that this is an unused sequence number because the instruction code is 00. Now simply press the R/S key. This will set nsctruction 003 to be the run/stop function.
Our program now looks like this:
|
000 |
65 |
x |
|
001 |
02 |
2 |
|
002 |
95 |
= |
|
003 |
91 |
R/S |
Let's try it again. Get out of learn mode and reset the instruction pointer. Enter the digit 6 into the display, and press R/S. Look at that! The TI-58/59 has multiplied our number by 2 and stopped execution. Great! Now lets try it again. Press CLR to clear the display, and then enter a number of your own choosing. Press the R/S key.
What happened? It went off into never-never land again. Why? The problem is that the TI-58/59 stopped execution at sequence 003 where we had our R/S instruction. The next time we initiated execution, it picked right up at sequence 004. This, like the first time, caused it to fly through a whole lot of null instructions until it ran out of sequences.
How do we account for this behavior? The solution is simple. The RST key, like the R/S key, can be entered as an executable instruction. Press the CLR key to get the display to stop blinking. Press the RST key to reset the sequence pointer. Press LRN to get into learn mode. Press SST until you're at sequence 004. Now press the RST key to assign the reset function to sequence 004.
Our program now looks like this:
|
000 |
65 |
x |
|
001 |
02 |
2 |
|
002 |
95 |
= |
|
003 |
91 |
R/S |
|
004 |
81 |
RST |
Get back out of learn mode and reset the sequence pointer. New lets try it again. Enter 6 and press R/S. Like before it will multiply 6 by 2. Now enter a number of your own choosing and press R/S again. This time it works. The second time you press R/S, it will continue on and execute instruction sequence 004. But new sequence 004 tells the instruction pointer to go back to 000. This will begin execution of the program from the beginning, which will multiply the display value by 2 and stop execution.

Card reader with replacement of the licorice wheel... As promised the photos. I used the 7 mm external and 3 mm internal tube, in some cases I had to use the 6 mm one (SR series), since you disassemble everything, clean all the gears and then use a lithium grease (little I recommend). Since you have to disassemble everything, clean the magnetic head with isopropyl alcohol.

Fantastic find!!! Extremely rare watch, we've seen two in recent years, the first on a German blog, and the second we found ourselves!!! My friend Fabrizio ( Nemesi Service ) and I joked about it a lot, because he was one of the very few lucky people to have one in the '80s.
In the last photo, you can see the words "assembled in Italy."

Info: We wrote May 1982 when Texas Instruments printed the sales brochures of the TI-88 on glossy paper. The brochures promised the introduction of the TI-58C/TI-59 successor for Forth Quarter 1982 in a package matching the TI-55-II line - before we got word of the TI-66. Today we know more: The development of the TI-88 was finalized, the manuals printed, the first pre-production calculators worked perfectly and Texas Instruments canceled the whole project! Maybe one of the reasons was the introduction of the powerful Hewlett-Packard HP-41C calculator or the innovative Sharp PC-1211 Pocket Computer. Or the underestimated complexity of the TI-88 design. Or electrostatic discharge (ESD) issues of the Module contacts. Or the internal competition with the CC 40 Compact Computer. Or the keyboard problems encountered with the TI-55-II family of calculators. Or the decision of a Manager of TI's Consumer Electronic group to quit the calculator business...
Learn more about the demanding "Project X" initiated already in Summer 1977 and leading not only to the (failed) TI Programmable 88, but the TI-66 PROGRAMMABLE, failed TI-76 PROGRAMMABLE, Compact Computer CC 40, (failed Compact Computer CC 70) and last but not least the successful TI-74 BASICALC and TI-95 PROCALC.

The PC-800 Printer is a dot-matrix thermal printer designed for use with the TI-88 Programmable. It connects to the TI-88 through a 2-pin Peripheral I/O connector. A second Peripheral I/O connector on the back of the PC-800 allows to connect another device like the CA-800 Cassette Interface to the TI-88.

The commercial life of the TI-99/4 was however short with the announcement of its replacement with the 99 / 4A which would then be presented at the "Consumer Electronics Show", on June 30, 1981.
In order not to disappoint its customers, Texas Instruments offered to replace the old computer / 4 with the new Texas Instruments TI-99 / 4A totally free of charge but on the condition that the purchase of the / 4 had been at least 6 months before. of the release of the new model, only the shipping costs were charged to the customer.
The company T.I. tried to market the Texas Instruments TI-99/4 also in Italy and France, but due to delays, its distribution was immediately interrupted to make way for the / 4A already present in the US market. In any case, in Europe the 99/4 found no interest in the market also precisely because of the monitor alley which had a US NTSC standard and therefore problematic for European standards. Texas Instruments, strangely, never officially announced the discontinuation of the TI-99/4. In total, around 25,000 units were produced.
TI-99/4 with inernal Speaker. In the end we also managed to get a nice TI-99/4 with internal speaker and volume control. In this photo a 32Kbyte memory expansion and an RS232 interface complete the set.
Here are the original manuals and the masks to use for playing or teaching.
A detail from the inside, the PCB with an operational amplifier, used to drive the internal speaker via the volume slider potentiometer, which is located on the bottom of the TI-99/4.
Compared to all the others, this version has a very important peculiarity to keep in mind: the power supply that provides the three voltages (+12vdc, +5vdc and -5vdc) is not located inside the computer but outside in a plastic box as shown in the photo.
It is important to note that the 4-pin connector has a different sized pin than the other 3 pins.

Home Computer TI-99/4A Enhanced version of the TI-99/4 model marketed at the end of 1979, it was placed on the market starting from June 1981, had a certain diffusion especially in the USA but due to the commercial war with Commodore International it was unable to achieve a significant number of sales, especially due to the success of the Commodore 64, and production ceased just two years after launch. It supports lowercase writing, unlike some machines of the time which required specific expansion, and a full-travel keyboard, and is based on the TMS-9900, a 16-bit CPU clocked at 3 MHz. The graphics are 16 colors with a video resolution of 256 x 192 pixels, organized in 32 columns x 24 rows, with characters (ASCII or user definable) based on 8 x 8 pixels.
Built around a single block, which contains the CPU, the motherboard and the cartridge slot (SSC Solid State Cartridge), it also had a 5.25" floppy disk drive, a serial card, among other options. RS-232 equipped with two serial ports and one parallel, a P-Code card for supporting the Pascal programming language, a thermal printer, an acoustic coupler, tape drives for saving and loading data (on normal cassettes), a pair of joysticks and a 32 kB memory expansion. The peculiarity of the machine was that it was sold already equipped with a monitor (a modified version of a 13" Zenith Color TV), as the RF adapter for connection to a normal TV it never obtained certification from the Federal Communications Commission. In Italy it was sold without a monitor and the video output was fully compatible with normal televisions. Another peculiarity for the time was the presence of an optional speech synthesizer, exactly like the one present in the Atari 2600, which allowed the software or games to be equipped with speech synthesis. The synthesizer was provided free of charge to customers after the purchase of a certain number of cartridges, and was widely used in several video games written by TI itself.

In August of 1983 TI released the TI-99/4A QI. Though this name was not official for the console, it was what the motherboard was designated. QI stood for Quality Improved. No visual changes were made to the exterior of the console, and in fact they are very hard to distinguish from the beige models. On the other hand, major changes were made to the internal components of the QI. We will take a look at these changes a little later.
One change that was made that created major grumbling was TI's decision to change the internal workings to lockout unlicensed ROM cartridges. This was done to keep other 3rd party companies from producing cartridges for the TI-99/4A. Not all QI consoles had this "feature", and even non QI, later beige consoles may have. It is easy to determine if you have the lockout or not. Look at the first screen (the one with the color bars) when you turn on the console, if you show a copyright date of 1981 you do not have the lockout, but if it shows a copyright date of 1983 then you do.
The TI-99/4 and TI-99/4A are home computers released by Texas Instruments in 1979 and 1981, respectively. Based on the Texas Instruments TMS9900 microprocessor originally used in minicomputers, the TI-99/4 was the first 16-bit home computer, and the associated video display controller provided color graphics and sprite support that was among the best of its era.
The calculator-style keyboard of the TI-99/4 was cited as a weak point, and TI's reliance on ROM cartridges and their practice of limiting developer information to select third parties resulted in a lack of software for the system. The TI-99/4A was released in June 1981 to address some of these issues, featuring a simplified internal design, full-travel keyboard, improved graphics, and a unique expansion system. At half the price of the original model, sales picked up significantly and TI supported the 4A with peripherals, including a speech synthesizer and a "Peripheral Expansion System" box to contain hardware add-ons. TI released developer information and tools, but the insistence on remaining sole publisher continued to starve the platform of software.
The 1981 US launch of the TI-99/4A followed the Commodore VIC-20 by several months. Commodore's CEO Jack Tramiel had once been offended by TI's predatory pricing during the mid-1970s, and retaliated with a price war by repeatedly lowering the price of the VIC-20 and forcing TI to do the same. By 1983, the 99/4A was selling for under US$100, at a loss. Even with the increased user base created by the heavy discounts, Texas Instruments suffered a US$330 million loss in the third quarter of 1983 and announced the discontinuation of the TI-99/4A in October 1983, with production ended in March 1984.
The TI-99/4 was intended to fit in the middle of a planned range of TI-99 computers, none of which were ultimately released but prototypes and documentation have been rediscovered after the TI-99/4A was discontinued.
