Function
A programmable machine that accepts, processes, and displays data. Une machine programmable qui accepte, traite et affiche les données.
Technical
The 645S comes with a 9-inch screen. The screen is mounted on a support attached to the right or left side of the 645S. The screen can be adjusted by rotating it. The keyboard on the 645S is similar to that of a standard typewriter. This word processor’s printer consisted of a printwheel and ribbon cartridge located inside the carrier. This word processor’s operations are programmed by a selection of 8-inch floppy disks that contain prerecorded instructions for various tasks. The 645S also included Recording Disks which were used to record typing. When an instruction disk was inserted, it was automatically “read” by the 645S. This process is referred to as “loading” the disk. Documents recorded on these disks can be printed, changed, and erased. The keyboard on the 645S is similar to that of a standard typewriter. Le 645S est équipé avec un écran de neuf pouces appuyé soit à la gauche ou droite de l'objet, selon le fabricateur. L'écran pouvait être ajusté en le tournant vers l'utilisateur. Le clavier du 645S est similaire à une machine à écrire standard. L'imprimante du logiciel de traitement de texte avait une roue d'impression et un ruban en cassette à l'intérieur. Les opérations sont programmées avec des minidisques de huit pouces qui avaient des instructions pré enregistrer ainsi que des minidisques qui pouvaient être utilisés pour enregistrer. Quand une disquette d'instructions étais inséré il était lu automatiquement par l'objet qui apercevait le chargement. Les documents enregistrés sur les disquettes pouvaient être imprimées, sauvegarder ou effacer. Le clavier du 645S fonctionnais comme celui de la machine à écrire standard.
