This computer was probably intended for holding OEM programs thanks to its 8 cartridge slots. Cartridge could be ROM, for programs or RAM to store data.

The internal O.S. allowed to manage these cartridges, run programs or copy data from one cartridge to another. The content of a cartridge could be sent through the serial interface.

The machine could be powered by either an AC adaptor or an internal NiCad battery.
