Entering Test Mode (or “Press-to-Test Mode”) on a TI-84 Plus CE is a way of ensuring that students are not able to access any unauthorized programs or files when taking an exam. While it is not immediately obvious how to enter this hidden mode, it will be easy for you to do once you learn how to do it.

This mode allows you to quickly prepare your calculator for exams. The backed up data will be restored when you exit Examination Mode.

For example, you can connect a TI-Nspire™ CX II handheld to a TI-Nspire™ handheld or connect a TI-Nspire™ CAS handheld to a handheld that does not have CAS. Important: If the other handheld is in Press-to-Test mode, it will also exit Press-to-Test.

You can exit Press-to-Test mode on your handheld by connecting it to another handheld and using the Exit Press-To-Test menu command. The two handhelds can be mixed. For example, you can connect a TI-Nspire™ CX II handheld to a TI-Nspire™ handheld or connect a TI-Nspire™ CAS handheld to a handheld that does not have CAS.

Press-to-Test enables you to quickly prepare student handhelds for exams where use of applications, programs, and other files is restricted. When a handheld is in Press-to-Test mode, students cannot access pre-existing folders, documents, and Scratchpad data.
