Cassette Tape Operations
Operation/Description
Modes*
Key sequence
Program Memory Save
This operation copies data from the
Program Memory to tape. The file no.
refers to an identifying address for the
information within the tape. For ease
of information retrieval, the file
number and data information should
be written clearly on the tape. File
numbers should not be used more
than once on one tape. If only a part
of the Program Memory is to be
stored, the appropriate start and stop
addresses must be entered. Due to
limited memory capacity, each C60
tape can only store apporximately
16K words on each side of the tape.
When the start address is entered,
the maximum stop address is set as
the default. Do not set a stop address
past this one. If you wish to record
past this address the additional
information will need to be recorded
either on the flip side of the tape or on
a separate tape. After starting the
tape recorder, wait about 5 seconds
before pressing REC/RESET to allow
the leader tape to pass before the
data transmission starts.

Program Memory Restore
To read Program Memory data which
has been recorded on a cassette
tape, the keystrokes are as given
here. The file no. should be the same
as the one entered when the data was
recorded. The read operation will
proceed from the specified start
address up to the end of the tape,
unless halted by a CLR command.
The instruction must be completed
before the leader tape has been
played, i.e., before the data is
reached on the tape.

Program Memory Compare
The procedure to compare Program
Memory data on a tape with the
Program Memory in the Program
Memory area is the same as that for
reading it (see above), except that
after starting the tape playback, VER
should be pressed instead of SHIFT
and PLAY/SET.
