TANDY  000 RSX  (250-1454/55)          Features         Faxback Doc. # 1332

The internal options for your Tandy 1000 RSX floppy:

* AT Smartdrive Interface, add any AT style Smartdrive from 40 MB to 240MB.

Note: If you have the 1000 RSX hard drive version, the 52 MB smartdrive can
      be replaced with a larger AT Smartdrive. Only one hard drive can be
      added to the 1000 RSX. This is a physical limitation due to the small
      design of the case

* Two AT style 16-bit expansion interfaces are available for additional
  option boards.

The external options for your Tandy 1000 RSX plug into the system from the
back panel. Note that each position is individually labeled for you.

* For more ease of use with DeskMate and other programs, you will want to try a
mouse. The PS/2-style mouse that came with your Tandy RSX system, lets you 
simply "plug and use."

* You can use the SERIAL connector on the back of your Tandy 1000 RSX System for
any piece of equipment that requires a serial connector.

* The Tandy 1000 RSX lets you run programs that produce sound, but sometimes
people around you might appreciate the sounds of silence. You can easily
oblige by connecting stereo headphones with an 1/8" plug to the EAR connector
on the back panel.

* You can use an amplified set of speakers for external sound capabilities. 
These speakers can be connected to the EAR connector on the back panel instead 
of headphones.

* Remember, you can modify the sound level of your Tandy 1000 RSX's sound 
system by simply adjusting the VOL knob.

* You can also change a jumper on the inside of the machine so that you can use
direct audio line level output from other devices.

* Take advantage of the special sound reproduction capabilities of your Tandy
1000 RSX System. You can record sounds and voice messages (using Information
Center in the Home Organizer application) using a microphone and DeskMate's
Sound program. 

* You can also change a jumper on the inside of the machine so that you can use
direct audio line level input from other devices.

* Hook up a printer to your Tandy 1000 RSX System and experience the true 
meaning of the expression "seeing is believing." Now you can have a paper 
copy (printed copy) of text, files, and even graphics.

Note: Be sure to turn the computer on BEFORE you turn the printer on.
