The CoCo DSA Mode of EDM
The EDM Software functions as both the means of transferring date from the
CoCo-80 to the PC and also as a data management and analysis tool. The main
features of the software include: transferring data between the CoCo-80 and a PC,
viewing, searching and exporting data to other formats and using the analysis
tools to measure signal characteristics.
Data Transfer
After a connection is established between the CoCo-80 and a PC, the EDM
software manages the transfer of data between the two devices. The data includes
recorded time streams, saved signals, and CSA projects. When EDM detects the
connection, the software displays a list of the files available for transfer and allows
the use to initiate the download to the PC. After files are downloaded they can be
deleted from the CoCo-80 flash memory to create free space for new data files.
