Radio Shack TRS-80 Model III User Manual

TRS-80 MODEL
RESET
RESET
is the
orange-colored
button
at the
upper right
corner
of the
keyboard.
To
'
'
start
over'
'
at the power-on
message
,
you do not have
to turn the unit
off and
on again.
Pressing the
RESET button will
have the same
effect.
Note: Resetting
the Computer does
not erase
the contents of
RAM . However,
the
BASIC language
interpreter will
start over, thus
"losing" any
program
or data
you
had in memory.
To
interrupt a program
or operation
without losing
your BASIC program
and data,
hold down
the
(
BREAK)
key.
Power-Off
First turn
off the Computer,
then all
other peripherals.
If
you turn the
Computer off for
any reason,
leave
it
off for at
least 15 seconds
before
turning
it back on again.
The
Computer's power
supply
needs this
time to discharge
its stored
energy before
starting
up again.
Whenever
you turn off the
Computer, all
programs and data
are erased.
So be
sure
to save your information
(e.g.
,
on cassette)
before
turning off the
Computer.
Start-Up Dialog
When
you turn on
or reset the
Computer,
it
asks
you
two
questions.
First:
Cass?
This
question lets
you determine
the
rate at which
programs and
data will
be
transferred
to
and
from
cassette.
You can select
either Low
(500
baud)
or High
(1500
baud).
Type
L
for
Low,
or
H
for
High.
