• The cassette tape deck is controlled by software. All cassette tape operations, i.e., storing, loading
and verifying data and rewinding, fast-forwarding and stopping the tape, are performed by the pro-
gram.
The APSS (Automatic Program Search System) fast-forwards the tape until the specified file is
found .
Automatic functions allow the cassette tape deck to be operated much more efficiently than has
been possible in the past.
Manual operation keys,[
REW),
~,(sToP) and
[EJEcT],
are provided on the console.
• The MZ-80B has a superior display system with the following features; it displays all characters
and patterns input from the keyboard in any mode; it operates in either the 40 or 80 characters/
line mode; the scrolling area can be restricted to a part of the screen; and black and white can be
reversed.
Further, 2 optional graphic memories which enable graphic display of 320 x 200 dots per frame
can be added to the MZ-80B. With this high resolution, the range of possible applications for the
MZ-80B becomes very wide indeed.
