Comment | The Omron 86 is the unit that was sold as the
first Braun calculator 4954. The "N-S" key of the 86SR changes between fix-point and exponential display mode. In exponential mode only 5 mantissa digits are displayed. A detailled description of display tubes can be found Volker Niepel's pages. |
