The €-2002+ calculator combines the usual desktop 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. The €-2002+ followed soon the €-2002 and added 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).
A more sophisticated approach could be found in the €-1796 and €-2003, these calculators got the 11 different exchange rates preprogrammed. If you need printing functions, choose among the €-2004, €-2005, €-2006 and €-5032.

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.
