About the EL backlight  
The PV Unit is equipped with an EL backlight that allows easy viewing  
of display contents in a theater, or anywhere else where lighting is dim.  
Tap the  
screen.  
icon to turn on the EL backlight and illuminate the display  
You can use the procedure on page 23 to specify how long the EL  
backlight stays on (approximately 15 or 30 seconds).  
Note that EL backlight operation consumes large amounts of electrical  
power and can greatly shorten battery life.  
Note that frequent or extended use of the EL backlight shortens battery  
life.  
The following shows how backlight use affects battery life under controlled  
test conditions*. For comparison with the values below, battery life is  
normally approximately 80 hours with 55 minutes of continuous display  
only and 5 minutes of processing operation per hour in the Contacts Mode  
when no backlight operation is performed.  
Backlight Operation  
3 minutes per hour  
15 minutes per hour  
Battery Life  
Approximately 60 hours  
Approximately 30 hours  
* Test Conditions  
“Battery Life” is the number of hours before battery failure when  
the unit is left on (5 minutes of a processing operation and 55 minutes  
of continuous display only (no processing operation) per hour in the  
Contacts Mode, plus the backlight operation described below). The  
above values assume ambient temperature of 20°C, starting with a  
fresh set of new batteries.  
“Backlight Operation” is the number of minutes the backlight is  
turned on per hour during the display only (no processing operation)  
period.  
Be sure to use alkaline batteries. Manganese batteries provide very  
short battery life.

Getting Acquainted  
Read this first!  
Be sure to read this part of the Users Guide before doing anything else! It  
includes important information that you need to know in order to use the  
PV-S1600 (hereinafter referred to as the “PV Unit”) correctly.  
You can find more detailed information about other PV Unit operations in  
“Chapter 15 – General Reference” on page 143 and “Chapter 17 – Technical  
Reference” on page 166.  
Important!  
Please keep this User’s Guide and all information handy for future reference.  
Note  
The screen shots shown in this User’s Guide may differ slightly from the displays  
actually produced by your PV Unit.  
Make backup copies of important data!  
Your PV Unit employs flash memory, which makes it possible to store large  
volumes of data and to recall data quickly and easily. Data is retained when power  
is turned off and even when batteries go dead, but it can be corrupted or lost  
entirely due to operational mistakes or malfunction. Data contents can also be  
corrupted or lost due to strong electrostatic charge, strong impact, or extremes in  
temperature and humidity. All of this means that you should always keep back-  
up copies of important data by transferring it to a personal computer or by writing  
it down somewhere.

Chapter 1 Getting Acquainted  
Important Precautions  
Note the following important precautions whenever using your PV Unit.  
Never expose the PV Unit to fire.  
Avoid temperature extremes. Do not locate the PV Unit in direct sunlight,  
near a window, near a heater, etc.  
In very low temperatures display response may slow down or fail entirely.  
This condition is temporary and operation should resume under normal  
temperatures.  
Avoid areas subject to excessive moisture, dirt, and dust.  
Avoid dropping the PV Unit and otherwise subjecting it to strong impact.  
Never bend or twist the PV Unit.  
Never try to take the PV Unit apart.  
Make sure nothing gets between the hard cover and the touch screen.  
Besides creating the risk of scratching the touch screen, an object coming  
into contact with the screen can cause power to turn on and run down  
the batteries.  
Do not use a pen, pencil, or other sharp object to touch or press the  
display.  
To clean the exterior of the PV Unit, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened  
in a weak solution of a mild neutral detergent and water. Be sure to  
wring out any excess moisture from the cloth before wiping off the PV  
Unit. Never use benzene, thinner, or any other volatile agent to clean  
the unit. Doing so can remove the figures printed on the case or otherwise  
damage the case finish.

Chapter 1 Getting Acquainted  
Data Errors  
The PV Unit performs a self-check routine whenever you turn it on. The message  
shown below appears if the PV Unit detects a problem with data stored in its  
memory.  
Once data is lost due to a data error it cannot be recovered. Data errors are generally  
caused by one of the following problems.  
Interruption of battery power  
Severe electrostatic charge, strong impact, changes in temperature, or  
changes in humidity  
Hardware problems  
Once the data error message appears, the PV Unit will not accept any input or  
editing of data. In order to return memory to normal (and permit further data  
editing and input), you have to perform the RESET operation to clear all data.  
Before doing so, you may want to recall important data and write it down (if you  
dont yet have a copy). You can then re-input the data after clearing PV Unit  
memory.  
Continued problems after performing the RESET operation can indicate a serious  
hardware problem. Consult with your nearest CASIO dealer if problems persist.  
To reset after viewing data  
1. After the Data error message appears, tap Yes.  
2. In response to the message that appears (Data error! Consult your  
User’s Guide for correct procedure.), tap OK.  
This displays the pop up tool screen.  
3. Now you can enter other modes to recall data and make handwritten  
copies if you want.  
4. After recalling the data you want, perform the RESET operation under  
Resetting the PV Uniton page 170.

Power Supply  
Your PV Unit can be powered by two AAA-size alkaline batteries.  
Important!  
Normally the flash memory of the PV Unit retains its data even when power  
is turned off and when batteries go dead. Mis-operation or other problems,  
however, can cause data to become corrupted or lost. Always keep separate  
copies of important data.  
Low Battery Warning  
The message shown below appears whenever battery power drops below a  
certain level. Replace the batteries immediately after this message appears:  
Batteries are getting weak! Replace them as instructed in the Users  
Guide.  
Important!  
If you continue using the PV Unit after the low battery warning message  
appears, power may suddenly turn off or the contrast adjustment screen  
may suddenly appear. Should this happen, replace batteries immediately.  
Be sure to use alkaline batteries. Manganese batteries provide very short  
battery life.  
Battery Precautions  
Incorrectly using batteries can cause them to burst or leak, possibly damaging  
the interior of the PV Unit. Note the following precautions.  
Be sure to use alkaline batteries only to power this PV Unit.  
Be sure that the positive (+) side of each battery is  
facing in the correct directions.  
Never mix batteries of different types.

Chapter 1 Getting Acquainted  
Never mix old batteries and new ones.  
Do not expose batteries to direct heat, let them become shorted, or try to  
take them apart.  
Never leave dead batteries in the battery  
compartment.  
Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the PV Unit for a long  
time. Batteries will go dead after about six months if you leave them in  
the PV Unit while it is not used.  
Replace batteries at least once every year, no matter how much you use  
the PV Unit during that period.  
About once a month, turn on the PV Unit and check its battery level. If  
the low battery warning appears or if nothing at all appears on the display,  
replace batteries as soon as possible.  
Never try to recharge the batteries that come with  
the PV Unit.  
Should a battery leak, clean out the battery compartment of the PV Unit  
immediately, taking care to avoid letting battery fluid come into direct  
contact with your skin.  
Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If swallowed, consult  
with a physician immediately.  
Frequent data synchronization using the optional SB-305 serial cable  
shortens battery life.  
The batteries that come with this unit discharge slightly during  
shipment and storage. Because of this, they may require replacement  
sooner than the normal expected battery life.

The backlight may fail to turn on when battery power is low and during  
data communication.  
Frequent use of the backlight shortens battery life. The following shows  
how backlight use affects battery life under controlled test conditions.*  
For comparison with the values below, battery life is normally  
approximately 80 hours with 55 minutes of continuous display only and  
5 minutes of processing operation per hour in the Contacts Mode when  
no backlight operation is performed.

* Test Conditions  
Battery Lifeis the number of hours before battery failure when  
the unit is left on (5 minutes of a processing operation and 55 minutes  
of continuous display only (no processing operation) per hour in the  
Contacts Mode, plus the backlight operation described below). The  
above values assume ambient temperature of 20°C, starting with a  
fresh set of new batteries.  
Backlight Operationis the number of minutes the backlight is  
turned on per hour during the display only (no processing operation)  
period.  
Be sure to use alkaline batteries. Manganese batteries provide very  
short battery life.  
Cursor Keys and Stylus  
Many of the PV Units operations can be performed using either a stylus or the  
cursor keys under the display screen. The following describes the general  
operations that can be performed with each.  
Stylus

Columns are named using the letters of the alphabet from A to Z, while  
rows are numbered sequentially from 1 to 999.  
The maximum capacity for a single sheet is about 32KB (about 1,900  
cells when each cell contains one character, without any format settings  
or borderlines). The message Sheet is too big!appears on the display  
whenever the contents of a file exceeds this limit.  
If a sheet being received by the unit during a Pocket Sheet Sync operation  
exceeds the maximum limit (about 32KB), the excess cell data is  
automatically cut off. In this case, the sync operation ends normally,  
with no indication that the data was cut off. This means you should  
always check sheet contents visually after a sync operation is complete.  
A cell is referred to using its cell reference, which is made up of the  
cells column name and row number. This means that the cell reference  
of the upper left cell in the above sheet is A1, and the cell reference of  
the lower right cell is D5.  
The active cell is the one that is currently selected for input. The active  
cell is highlighted.

Inputting Data Into a Cell  
This section explains the rules and procedures for inputting text, values, and  
mathematical expressions into sheet cells. It also contains detailed information  
on the various cell functions that are available.  
General Input Rules  
The following are the general rules that you should observe whenever  
inputting data.  
Anything you enter on the keyboard is input into the sheets active cell.  
You can input up to 256 characters into each cell.  
Mixing text and numbers inside the same cell causes everything in the  
cell to be treated as text.  
Do not manually input commas as separators inside values. Doing so  
interferes with correct display of calculation results. Use the procedure  
under Changing the Format Settings of a Cellon page 93 to turn on  
automatic comma separators.  
Cell References  
The term cell reference means calling the contents of one cell into another  
cell. Pocket Sheet supports three types of cell references: relative, absolute,  
and mixed. Whether a cell references is relative, absolute, or mixed does not  
make affect the results it normally produces. The cell reference type matters  
only when the contents of the cell are copied and then pasted into another  
location. See Copying a Relative Cell Referenceon page 105 and Copying  
an Absolute or Mixed Cell Referenceon page 105 for full information  
about how cell references are affected by cut, copy, and paste operations.

Inputting Mathematical Expressions  
You can set up a cell to perform arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction,  
multiplication, division), and other useful functions like SUM (sum of a  
series of values), MIN (extracts the lowest value), and COUNT (counts the  
number of values). You can also use parentheses to ensure that operations  
are performed in the sequence you want.  
Inputting a mathematical expression causes its result to be displayed in  
the cell. The mathematical expression itself appears in the input field  
only.  
The results of mathematical operations are normally displayed flush right  
in the cell.  
If the result of a mathematical expression is longer than the cell that  
contains it, the contents of the cell are replaced by a string of # marks.  
This is to let you know that the cell contains a value, but the value cannot  
be displayed. If this happens, try making the cell wider (page 97).  
To input a mathematical expression  
1. Make the cell where you want to input the expression the active cell.  
2. On the on-screen keyboard, tap =.  
Inputting = as the first character tells the PV Unit that what follows is a  
mathematical expression.  
3. Use the on-screen keyboard to input the mathematical expression you  
want.  
Tapping the buttons above the keyboard inputs the corresponding  
function. See Examplesbelow for details.  
4. After the content of the cell is the way you want, tap NEXT to store it.

Inputting Text  
Text (letters and numbers) can be input into the active cell using the on-  
screen text input keyboard.  
Input make up entirely of numbers (including decimal point) is treated  
as a numeric value. Inclusion of even a single non-numeric character  
(alpha-character or symbol) causes the input to be treated as text.  
Text is normally aligned in the cell flush left, while numbers are aligned  
flush right.  
If a text string is longer than the cell, the extra text is allowed to extend  
into the next cell to the right in the sheet display, as long as the  
neighboring cell does not contain any data. If it does, the extra characters  
are cut off in the sheet display.  
If an input value is longer than the cell that contains it, the contents of  
the cell are replaced by a string of # marks. This is to let you know that  
the cell contains a value, but the value cannot be displayed. If this  
happens, try making the cell wider (page 97).  
If the first character in a cell is an equals sign (=), the text is considered  
to be part of a mathematical expression.
