Fully Connected Handheld Computer

A fully connected handheld computer will have only one cable connection, no matter
which model of handheld computer is selected (Figure 3.30).

The computer communication cable is plugged into the serial port. On the TDS
Ranger, the RS232 port is on the left when viewed as shown in Figure 3.30. On the
Husky, the port is on the right when viewed as shown in Figure 3.30. This cable con-
nects the Z-Xtreme receiver to the handheld computer.
This concludes our review of the hardware component connectivity for the ZX Super-
