• Built-in real time clock with alarm facility<br />

• 16 programmable baud rates from 50 to 19200<br />

(7/8 Bit)<br />

• Auto dialling/hangup for modem<br />

• File capture to Wordbee format <strong>and</strong> screen<br />

printing<br />

• Super friendly menu driven<br />

• Usable as st<strong>and</strong> alone or through Wordbee<br />

or Basic<br />

• Now available for all IC or later microbees<br />

• World st<strong>and</strong>ard Christensen protocol for file<br />

transfer<br />

Now every microbee can become a<br />

personal terminal using TELCOM 1.<br />

TELCOM 1 is a ROM based<br />

communications program suitable for<br />

all ROM based microbee IC <strong>and</strong> later<br />

models. It allows the use of the serial<br />

RS232 port at 16 baud rates from 50<br />

to 19200 Baud, provides real time<br />

clock with alarm feature, modem<br />

control functions such as automatic<br />

dialling, BASIC WORDBEE <strong>and</strong><br />

MACHINE LANGUAGE file transfer<br />

via the serial port. Additionally the<br />

ROM emulates the ADM 3A <strong>and</strong><br />

Televideo 912 terminals for connection<br />

to other computers. All information<br />

can be viewed on the screen <strong>and</strong><br />

retrieved as a WORDBEE file <strong>and</strong><br />

even printer-out using the built in<br />

screen print utility.<br />

1984 IS THE YEAR OF THE<br />

NETWORK . . . . with over 20,000<br />

microbees now in everyday use <strong>and</strong><br />

most with integrated software<br />

including WORDBEE,<br />

MICROWORLD BASIC <strong>and</strong><br />

COMMUNICATIONS capability are<br />

you missing out on the computing<br />

opportunity of the year? Using a low<br />

cost modem such as the BEEMODEM<br />

you can now talk to other computers<br />

around the world, use the public<br />

domain bulletin boards, shop<br />

electronically, communicate with<br />

friends with your own home telex <strong>and</strong><br />

extend your computing horizons by<br />

converting your microbee to your<br />

personal INFORMATION WINDOW<br />

to the world.<br />

A big feature of the microbee<br />

PERSONAL COMMUNICATOR is<br />

the battery backed CMOS RAM<br />

which stores your programs even when<br />

the power has been disconnected. This<br />

is particularly useful with WORDBEE<br />

or BASIC files which can be entered at<br />

home <strong>and</strong> then your microbee can be<br />

taken to school or the office for<br />

printout or further editing. If your<br />

needs grow you can exp<strong>and</strong> your<br />

PERSONAL COMMUNICATOR to<br />

the ADVANCED PERSONAL<br />

COMPUTER using disk drives. Ask<br />

your microbee computer shop for<br />

<strong>The</strong> microbee Series 2 Advanced Personal<br />

Computer with 400K disk drive <strong>and</strong> world class<br />

software such as CP/M, MICROSOFT BASIC,<br />

MULTIPLAN, WORDSTAR <strong>and</strong> a powerful<br />

library of support programs all for only $1495.<br />

<strong>The</strong> microbee Series 2 Advanced Personal<br />

Computer is the most powerful <strong>and</strong> best<br />

price/performance computer in its class. What's<br />

more any existing microbee owner can convert<br />

his microbee to the Series 2 APC at any time.<br />

<strong>The</strong> microbee Series 2 APC uses the popular<br />

Z80 microprocessor <strong>and</strong> runs st<strong>and</strong>ard CP/M so<br />

that users have access to the vast library of<br />

CP/M software available world wide.<br />

You can exp<strong>and</strong> your microbee Series 2 APC to<br />

drive 2 or more disk drives. A hard disk drive<br />

unit is now operational <strong>and</strong> will release soon.<br />

Your microbee Series 2 APC is a world class<br />

machine from the hardware as well as the<br />

software point of view. <strong>The</strong> exclusive<br />

SETDRIVE utility will convert your disk system<br />

to read diskettes from a host of other computers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Series 2 APC is also equipped with<br />

VIRTUAL DRIVE capability. This means<br />

single disk owners can readily copy from A to B<br />

using only one drive. Another world first is the<br />

CONFIG program which enables a Series 2<br />

APC user to reCONFIGure his CP/M system to<br />

select screen positioning, background <strong>and</strong><br />

foreground colour, parallel <strong>and</strong> serial printers<br />

disk drive information <strong>and</strong> even auto-start disks.<br />
