TMS is loaded from disk via the Commodore 1541 disk drive after typing
LOAD“TMS”,8,1
and pressing
RETURN
. The Commodore 64 also allows
you to enter
LOAD“*”,8,1
(
RETURN
). After the Island Logic/System Copy-
right screen has appeared the main TMS program will load automatically.
The loading will stop at the CONTROL SCREEN waiting for you to select a
module. When moving from one module to the next, you must always pass
through this screen. The highlighted icon is the one which may be run.
Press
SPACE
or
SHIFT SPACE
to select the next icon. Keep pressing to
get back to the original. Once selected the required module can be run by
pressing
RETURN
. Make sure that the TMS system disk is in your disk
drive before trying to load a module, otherwise an error message pop-up
will appear.
In general SPACE is used throughout the system to move a highlight or
select an operation.
When in the module return to the CONTROL screen by pressing function
key
F5
to activate the command line pop-up. Use
SPACE
to move the
highlight bar over the
EXIT
command (eg.
EXIT KEYBOARD
) and press
RETURN
. A short cut back to the CONTROL SCREEN can be achieved via
the
COM CLR/HOME
key pair. The
COM
key or
Commodore
key is at the
bottom left of the keyboard. Make sure the TMS system disk is in the disk
drive before leaving a module.
