The SmartPad™ CE App allows you to connect a calculator as a remote key pad.

To use the TI-84 Plus CE Python as a remote keypad for TI-SmartView™ CE:

1. SmartPad™ CE App for TI-84 Plus CE Python comes pre-loaded on the calculator. If not on your TI-84 Plus CE Python, SmartPad CE App is also available to load to your calculator at education.ti.com/go/download.
2. Connect your TI-84 Plus CE Python to your computer using the USB Computer cable which came with your calculator.

7. Press keys on the calculator key pad which remotely press the emulator key pad.

To stop the App:

Tip: Reconnect the USB cable and run the App again if the remote key pad connectivity is no longer responding.

Note:

The TI-84 Plus CE Python running the SmartPad™ CE App will not display calculations or graphs. The calculator becomes a remote USB key pad for the emulator only.
The TI-84 Plus CE Python will remain a remote key pad when the TI-SmartView™ CE emulator keypad is in focus. Click on the TI-SmartView emulator prior to pressing keys on the calculator.
The TI SilverLink cable is not supported in TI-SmartView™ CE.
