-==== Advantage Pac : Flag 21 ====
+===== Module Switching =====
+Using the [[dm41x_ladybug_module| Ladybug module]] for Integer/Base calculations means it's impossible to also have the [[41z_module| 41Z complex number module]] or the [[hp16c_emulator| HP16C simulator module]] and the necessary library "plugged in" at the same time. There is a clash between ''Library 4'' needed for ''41z'' (and also needed for ''16C'') and ''OS/4'' which is needed for ''Ladybug''.
+I've used the DM41X "module save/load" function to have different module-plugged states:
+  * ''41z.m41'' : with ''41Z 2x2 Deluxe'' and ''Library 4'' modules active
+  * ''16c.m41'' : with ''HP16 C Simulator'' and ''Library 4'' modules active
+  * ''lady.m41'' : with ''Boost'', ''OS/4'' and ''Ladybug'' modules active
+  * ''adv.m41'' : with ''Advantage Pac'' module active
+These are accessed via ''setup'' -> ''2. Module'' -> ''4. Load Modules'' -> ''1. Load AM list''
+Choosing the required *.m41 file will automatically unplug/plug whichever modules were active when the config. was saved.
+This makes it easier to remember which supporting library/module are needed to use each particular module's functions.
+It's possible to also save the ''flash'' state - which modules have been pre-loaded into the DM41X's Flash Memory making them //available// to be //plugged in// using different options at the ''setup'' ''2. Module'' choices.... you'll work it out.
+===== Advantage Pac : Flag 21 =====
 I found that using some of the Advantage Pac programs (e.g. ''MATRX'' or ''CFIT'') would lead to ''AVIEW'' instructions in programs run subsequently to cause a ''HALT'' - requiring use of the <key>R/S</key> key.
