Radio Shack’s Description of the Model III

In General …

Model III is an exciting new personal and small business computer. It’s completely self-contained in a desk-top unit. Like Model I, it’s fully expandable — you can start with a 4K Level I system and let it grow with your needs. There’s plenty of room inside for more memory, communications interface, and 2 double-density disk drives. And best of all, most Model I software will run on Model III, so there are already hundreds of applications you can put to use! Available with either Level I or powerful Model III BASIC.

Radio Shack introduces the exciting new computer for the 80s. Designed in the great TRS-80 tradition, the Model III is beautiful, functional, expandable, and afforable. Since memoy can range from 4 to 48K RAM, Model III can fill a wide range of needs. Your system can be exapnded so easily, it’s hard to “outgrow” the Model III. You can start with the popular Level I “learner’s” language, and later expand to the very powerful Model III BASIC with 16K memory. And there’s room inside to add the RS-232 serial board, plus 1 or 2 disk drives. Simply bring your Model III into your local Radio Shack store, dealer, or Computer Center for fast, easy installation of upgrade kits. Of course you may also add external options, like a printer, plotter, or up to 2 more disk drives.

4K Level I BASIC is the same as Model I BASIC, but with printing commands included. Model III BASIC has all the features of Model I Level II BASIC plus a lot more. 14K ROM includes upper and lower case ability plus 2-speed cassette operation, 500 baud (Model I compatible) and 1500 baud for 3 times faster tape loading. A real time clock, expanded “special” character set, printer/video routing, keyboard-controlled screen printing, repeating keys, and software for the optional RS-232 are all built in.

Virtually all our software and most non-Radio Shack software for the Model I is compatible with the Model III, giving a selection of applications. Each Model III includes a 65-key keyboard with a 12-key datapad, top-mounted recessed “reset” switch, hidden side-mounted AC switch and monitor controls, 12″ built-in high-resolution monitor, back-mounted cassette jack, printer connector and Model III bus.

12-1/2 x 18-7/8 x 20-1/2″. U.L. listed AC operation.

BASIC …

Level I: Radio Shack’s TRS-80 Level I language is the easlest way for beginners to learn computer programming. It’s a simplified version of the BASIC (Beginner’s All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) programming language, and allows you to “talk” to the computer using simple English commands and statements. Even if you have no prior knowledge of computer operation or programmlng, the easy-to-understand 236-page manual (Included) will have you programming the TRS-80 in no time. Level I includes most standard BASlC commands and features, a screen dlsplay of 16 lines of 64 upper-case characters, 48×128 video graphics, 250-baud cassette input/output rate, floating point arithmetic, 6-digit numeric accuracy, single dimension array, limited string variables, command abbreviations and simplified error codes. Level I for Model II now includes printer commands LPRINT and LLIST. Level I is stored in 4K of Read-Only Memory so it’s ready to use the instant you turn on your TRS-80 computer.

Model III BASIC: Get more features, accuracy and computing power with our Model III BASlC In 14K ROM. Execution time is 30% faster than Level I’s and it adds features like repeating keys, a screen format of 16 lines of either 32 or 64 upper and lower case characters-with automatic scrolling, and a screen print command. There’s dual-speed (500 and 1500-baud) cassette operation. You get multi-deminional arrays, definable cursor, comprehensive string variable handling, automatic line numbering, extensive editing commands, TRACE, PEEK and POKE, call-up of machine language routines, initalization of the optional RS-232 port, scroll protect, 23 specific error codes and even a special graphics character set. There’s 16-digit numeric accuracy (intrinsic functions remain at 6-digit accuracy). Compressed storage format for video display text. Program lines, logical lines, and string variables may be up to 255 characters long. Includes comprehensive reference manual and 340-page beginners manual.

As a Business System …

Here is a complete business system (except for your choice of printers) in a beautifully-styled, one-piece desktop housing. It includes a high-resdution, 12-inch video display with upper and lower case characters, typewriter-style keyboard, 12-key data pad, and two high-capacity disk storage units. Also included are a parallal printer port and a RS-232C serial port. Our Desktop Business Computer is ideal for many business applications. As a management tool, our Visicalc program allows fast and accurate “What if . . .” calculations. With Profile, you can catalog your data and print reports the way you want them. Add a printer and do Mailing List Management, Inventory Control, Payroll, Billing, Payables or General Ledger – and we have the software to do it! And with our SCRIPSIT software and the proper printer you can have a time and labor-saving word processing system, too!

You’ll get double-density disks, with 178,000 bytes of memory storage per disk. For added versatility you can convert the single-density Model I disks. So this powerful version of Model III is directly software compatible with most Model I programs. And, of course, you can add any of our Line Printers or Word Processing Printers to the parallel printer port. Although this system includes 2 built-in disk drives, you can add 1 or 2 more, for a total of about 670,000 bytes of starage space.

The RS232 Serial Communication Interface (optional on the Model I) comes built into the Desktop Business Computer. Just add our Telephone Interface II and you can then “talk” to other computers -anywhere! And various serial accessories can also be used. Just conned a cable and you’re an aet-no interface needed!

The system includes all of the TRS-80 Model III features and compes complete with a comprehensive programming manual and TRSDOS.

Model III TRSDOS …

The “TRSDOS” Disk Operating System is necessary for disk operation “housekeeping.” It includes numerous commands plus utility subroutiens that re necessary for disk file maintenance.

Model III TRSDOS has most of the Model I system commands plus many features that are dound in our top-of-the-line Model II. A few of its highlights are: BUILD and DO that allow a series of commands to be executed automatically when you “power-up,” taking you directly into your applications program. HELP will give you detailed information on the use of a specified command. SETCOM initializes the serial port for data communications. TIME and CLOCK will let you set and access the real-time clock. CONVERT makes the vast majority of single density Model I software compatible with the double-density Model III. LIST makes it easy to examine any disk file on your screen or printer. Detailed error messages are at your fingertips with the ERROR command.

Model III TRSDOS comes with Disk BASIC and a comprehensive manual.

Disk Expansion Is Easy For Your Model III

Any Model III can easily be expanded to the top-flight 32K Desktop Business Computer by adding the RAM and ROM and Mini-Disk drives. The Model III disk system stores and allows immediate access to the large amounts of data and programs you need for accounting, inventory control, mailing lists, and other jobs. Up to 4 drives can be attached, furinishing from 134,000 to about 670,000 bytes of on-line storage.

Each of the diskette’s 40 tracks consists of eighteen 256-byte double-density sectors. The first Disk Drive includes a diskette containing our powerful TRSDOS and Disk BASIC. It allows about 134K of user storage space. Certain system information and a directory are required on each diskette, leaving 178,944 bytes available on each of the second, third, and fourth drives. The system diskette containing TRSDOS and Disk BASIC must always be in your first drive unit.
