Correct. There is AvailWorks, a commercial software by PelicanWare:

Look at Paul Guyot's DictMgr:

The 1x0 models use a lithium coin-cell backup battery, I believe it is a
CR2032 or DL2032 (depending on the manufacturer, the number 2032 is the
important bit)

You should start with downloading the manuals for your 130 and giving them
a good read:

Check out the Newton Handbook especially.
