directly to the TRS-80
card-
edge; to
the TRS-80
Expansion Interface
Line
Printer card-edge; or
to another
device
equipped with
an
RS-232C
Interface. There is a
separate

these
options, and
a switch
to
tell the

not defeat
this
ground.

two card-edges, as shown in
Figure 3. Be

exits
from
the left of the card-edge connector.
