Steps to Save to Cassette (CoCo 1, 2, or 3): Connections: Ensure the cassette recorder is connected to the back of the CoCo using the 5-pin DIN cable. Issue Command: At the OK prompt, type CSAVE "FILENAME" and press ENTER. Wait: The screen will go black while saving. The computer will return to the OK prompt when the saving is complete. Verify: It is recommended to press STOP, rewind the tape, and use CLOAD "FILENAME" to verify the program was saved correctly. Important Notes: Filename: Use a simple filename, up to 8 characters. Volume: If you have trouble saving or loading, adjust the volume level (usually moderate or low is best).
