How to create and store revision notes on the Casio

fx9860G as an eActivity

What you'll need

• A Casio fx9860G

• A computer running Windows 2000 or later

• The USB cable that came with your fx9860G

• The FA-124 software that came on CD with your fx9860G

• A copy of the fx9860G emulator

You don't actually need the last 4, but it's way quicker with them and you'll

always have a backup on computer. We'll assume you want to make your notes

using all five.

If you don't have the emulator, go to

https://secure.casio.co.jp/edu_e/product/fx9860g/form.html

where you fill in a form and then get access to lots of free stuff, including the

emulator. If you study chemistry, grab a copy of Physium while you're there!

If that address doesn't work (this was written in May 2006 and the web is always

changing…) start at the world Casio site and dig down for fx9860G stuff. The

world site is at

What to do

1. Create a set of notes, etc as an eActivity using the emulator

2. Save the eActivity onto your computer

3. Import the eActivity into the FA-124 software

4. Transmit the eActivity from the FA-124 software to your fx9860G using

the USB cable

First time through things may seem a bit complicated, but you'll soon realise that

it's actually really easy. We'll explain how through some examples below. The

examples are based on chemistry, but can be applied to whatever subject you

want revision notes for.

How to do it

1. Create a set of notes, etc as an eActivity using the emulator

Once you've downloaded the free emulator, simply double-click it to get it

running. You may or may not get a warning screen before it starts.

This is the first thing you'll see. Press

MENU and use the cursor key to move

to the eAct icon.
