BYE switches the system to the Memo Pad mode. The system has
no computing ability, and only the keyboard and display are
functional. The operator can experiment with the keyboard
without affecting the system. The system will return to BASIC
when the SYSTEM RESET key is pressed.
The operations
of the computer a nd other devices (disk drive,
mod em, etc.) are not at all affected by the Memo Pad. For
example, if a program is in memory, and a disk and modem are
being used, a
BYE command will switch to Memo Pad. However,
SYSTEM RESET will restore the computer to BASIC, and all other
devices will still be ready to operate. The program in memory
will be unchang ed.
