The
€-2000+ calculator combines the usual basic calculator functions with an Euro
currency conversion. The exchange rate between the Euro and the Home currency is
entered with the small SET-key. Two additional keys allow the conversion in both
directions.
This calculator added a continuous memory to the earlier €-2000
and a feature to set the number of decimal places (for the curious, you have to
press the ON/C key about two seconds to enter the F-0-2 menu). Nevertheless
kept the internal construction of the €-2000+ identical with its predecessor.
A more sophisticated approach could be found in the €-2001,
this calculator got the 11 different exchange rates preprogrammed.

In 2006 Texas Instruments surprised customers in Europe with a
complete new family of Euro Calculators labeled EC-3, EC-5
and EC-7 Pro.
