[. . . ] You can change the cursor to move to the next row (down) instead in the FORMATS dialog box. You can enter a real or complex value or an expression that resolves to a real or complex value. You can also enter symbolic data.
Loading existing data You can load an existing matrix as all or part of the problem from within Simultaneous Equation Solver by using either of the following methods. Press „ 1:Augmented A|b, 2:Coefficient A, 3:Constant b, or 4:Two Matrices A and b.

Editing coefficients 1. [. . . ] ¥ A, ¥ B, ¥ C, or ¥ D moves the cursor to the beginning or end of the row or column. Use the 2 ˆ (TI-89) or ˆ menu to insert a column or row, delete a column or row, or resize the matrix.

If the Split Screen mode is set to Top-Bottom when the application is started, the TI-89 automatically switches to Full; the TI-92 Plus / Voyage™ 200 PLT automatically places the application in the top portion. To see the solution displayed in RREF, press ‡ from the Solution screen. If another application is running, 2 a toggles between the applications.

Right sides • • • To enter additional right sides (b 2 through b 5), use the cursor to move to those cells. To select a different right side to use in a calculation, use the 2 ‰ (TI-89) or ‰ menu. To store additional right sides separately, use the … 3:Constant b command.

FORMATS Dialog Box
To display the FORMATS dialog box, press ƒ 9:Format or shortcut keys ¥ Í (TI-89) or ¥ F.
Format settings
Column Width: Sets the number of characters to display in each
column. (Do not confuse this option with the MODE setting Display Digits, which determines the number of digits displayed. )
Cursor Movement: Determines whether the cursor moves to the
next column (right) or next row (down) after data are entered. The default is Right.
Answer in RREF: Sets the default Solution screen display mode when the system is solved the first time. The default is No.

Show Residuals: Toggles display of the residual vector b-Ax,
where x is the computed solution. When Show Residuals is set to YES, residuals are displayed in the column to the right of b 5 on the Coefficients screen. |resid| is the magnitude of the difference between the coefficient matrix times the computed solution and the right side. If this occurs, archive or delete some variables before returning to the application. When using a variable as input, verify that it is not a list, matrix, or other non-scalar expression. Choose a different variable that is scalar.
Coefficient A and Constant b matrices do not have the same number of rows. Memory
Element value must be a scalar or scalar expression.

Message
Existing variable SMLTDATA is preventing TISMLTEQ from saving its place. TISMLTEQ. simult is incompatible with cylindrical and spherical vector formats and with hex and bin bases. Tolerance value must be a nonnegative real number.
Description This error message appears when the SMLTDATA variable is archived or locked. Change the vector format mode to rectangular and the base mode to DEC (decimal).
