WabbitEmu For Mac

WabbitEmu offers you the possibility to run the OS for the Texas Instruments z80 calculators on your Mac. This way, you get to experiment working with the graphing calculators without having to rely on the hardware component.

To be able to start new calculator instances, as soon as you launch the WabbitEmu application, you need to navigate to the Preferences window and input the source ROM in the Hardware tab.

Since you cannot download the operating system from Texas Instruments anymore, you will have to get the ROM file by dumping the software from your calculator device with the help of a USB cable.

Within the same area, you also get to adjust the frames per seconds value when working with the emulator, adjust the shades or frequency value, or select the interface mode (perfect gray, steady frequency, or game gray).

The WabbitEmu application provides support for working with multiple series of the Texas Instruments graphing calculators, such as TI-73, TI-81, TI-82, TI-83 (including SE), TI-84 (SE and CSE), TI-85 and TI-86.

Once you load the ROM image, you get to see the calculator emulation, as well as the debugger and variables windows. The debugger offers you the possibility to analyze the data, view the registers, activate flags, check the CPU status, review the memory map and possible interrupts, and so on.

Keep in mind that WabbitEmu offers you the possibility to save the current calculator state, as well as capture screenshots or grab animations.

WabbitEmu offers you the possibility to emulate different models of TI graphing calculators and interact with them from the comfort of your Mac’s desktop.

Worth mentioning is that WabbitEmu requires a ROM image to emulate the calculator, and you should be able to get it by dumping the OS directly from the hardware device (there are no official Texas Instruments download sources).
