Description

The TI 83 Button Viewer UI is not able to turn on the system and so you have to find the key binding for on and use it instead. This is because the buttons are pressed for a single frame and unable to be held while the On button needs to be held for 3 frames for the calculator to be turned on.

Research direction

Start by locating the TI-83 Button Viewer UI and its button-press handling. Inspect how press duration is represented, then verify that the On button can remain pressed for three frames. Done means the calculator powers on through the Button Viewer without using the key binding.
