Abstract:

This report is a users manual for an Automated Data Processing workstation at the Navy Supply Systems Command. The workstation is built around a Radio Shack Model II microcomputer and was established to support data processing in the design and analysis of alternative approaches that would satisfy specific warehousing requirements. A unique feature of this workstation is its voice output in addition to screen display and printed output. Voice output was designed into the workstation to allow use of the workstation by a totally blind user who cannot function independently in the workstation without voice output. For users not requiring voice output, the workstation functions without any loss of capabilities. This users manual describes all the components of the workstation and the use of the workstation with or without voice output. Originator-supplied keywords included User manual, Computer communications, Telecommunications, Microcomputer workstation, Voice output, and TRS-80 model 2 microcomputers. Author
