Download
This option allows the user to download application programs (*.SHX), BASIC run-time
(bas.ops.shx), BASIC programs (*.SYN) or font files to the terminal. There are six
resident locations and one Active Memory. A maximum of seven programs can be
downloaded to the terminal. The application program downloaded to the Active Memory
will be the only activate program running. In order to activate one of the other programs,
immediately after downloading, input a name for the program desired or just press the
enter key to keep its current name if one is applicable. This will enable the user to
download the program. The application file’s type, name, and size will be shown on the
list of programs when entering the Download or Activate menu of the Program Manager.
The file type is a small letter that follows the program number (01~06), it can be either ‘b’,
‘c’ or ‘f’ which represents BASIC program, C program or font file respectively. The
program name is up to 12 characters and the program size is in units of K bytes.
