B lets you change the rate at which the HX-20 LISTS a BASIC program on the screen. To change this rate, press w when a program is LISTing on the screen, and then press a key from 0 to 9. 0 sets the slowest LIST rate; 9 sets the fastest LIST rate. Other keys set intermediate LIST rates.

qlets you see the HX-20 menu. Even if the HX-20 is in

BASIC, or is running some program, it will return to the menu if you press the q key.

m interrupts an operation in progress, such as a BASIC pro-

gram or a cassette SAVE or LOAD.

The keys ( through q are programmable special function keys. This means that you can change the functions associated with these keys. See the Epson HX-20 BASIC Tutorial and Reference

Manual.

mjlcauses the microprinter to print a hard copy of the LCD screen display.

q/m enables you to control a microcassette manually. This

works only when a microcassette is installed.

When you press q /i , the LCD screen displays the value of the microcassette’s digital tape counter. This indicates that the HX-20 is in manual microcassette mode. While in this mode, the programmable function keys have the following effect:

:Fast forward.

:Slow forward,

:stop.

:Rewind.

:Exit from manual microcassette mode.

Reset microcassette’s digital tape counter to zero.
