In no event shall Texas Instruments be liable to anyone for special, collateral, incidental, or consequential damages in connection with or arising out of the purchase or use of these materials, and the sole and exclusive liability of Texas Instruments, regardless of the form of action, shall not exceed the purchase price of this product.

Using the Module Topics Guide

The Module Topics Guide is an interactive catalog that provides a key to the TI-89 / Voyage™ 200 personal learning tool (PLT) modules. Use this guide to view content outlines of the modules that form the comprehensive guidebook. Search for key words and let the Module Topics Guide target a module for you. You can then click on a module's title to open it.

You do not need the Module Topics Guide to open individual modules. The modules are portable document format (PDF) files, so you only need Adobeë Acrobatë Readerë. However, the Module Topics Guide offers a quick way of locating subject matter.

Using this Module on the Internet

Adobe Acrobat Reader installation adds a toolbar to your Internet (web) browser. The Reader toolbar appears only when you are using a web browser to view a PDF file. The Reader toolbar appears just beneath the web browser's toolbar and contains buttons relevant to PDF functions.


Use the Adobeë Acrobatë Readerë toolbar displayed in your web browser to search for a key word. (Most of the web browser's menu options and buttons have no affect on PDF files.) After locating a key word, click the title of the module containing the key word to open that module. See an example at Searching for a Key Word.

Using this Module on the CD

Use Adobe Acrobat Reader to search for a key word. After locating a key word, click the title of the module containing the key word to open that module. See an example at Searching for a Key Word.

Using this Module on a Hard Drive

As previously mentioned, the modules are PDF files. You may download one or more modules to your hard drive and open them individually.


If you want to use the Module Topics Guide to access downloaded files, be aware that:

• If you download the Module Topics Guide to your computer, you must also download the related modules you want to access. Otherwise, you will receive an error message when you click a module's title.

• The Module Topics Guide and its related modules must reside in the same folder on your computer. Otherwise, you will receive an error message when you click a module's title.

After the files are downloaded, use Adobeë Acrobatë Readerëto search for a key word. After locating a key word, click the title of the module containing the key word to open that module. See an example below.

Searching for a Key Word

Example: Search for the word circle and open the related module.

1. Click on the Adobe Acrobat Reader toolbar. (The binoculars button performs the same action whether used on the Internet, CD, or computer hard drive.)

2. Type circle in the dialog box that appears.


3. Click Find to locate the first occurrence of the word.

4. Click on the related module's title text to open that file. (You may need to scroll or use page up/down to locate the title.)

– You can search the module you just opened for the key word circle or other words.

— or —

– Click (Go to Previous View) to return to the Module Topics Guide. You can search the Module Topics Guide for more occurrences of circle or other key words.

Visit PDF Instructions on the TI web site, or see the AdobeëAcrobatë Readerë Help menu for more information.
