Slot 1 needs to have at least 128K and at least enough RAM to store the image.

128K is enough to space to store Eazylink and Flashstore, but not enough to store OZ 4.5.

OZ 4.5 requires at least 256K.

Ideally if you are running OZ 4.5 in slot 1, with 512K of RAM, that is enough RAM to store most images.

OZ 4.5 also has Eazylink installed on it so the additional Computer link pop-down is not required.

Slot 2 may have another EPROM or Flash card with the Computer Link in it
A blank EPROM or Flash Card to store the applications or files.
(Optional) EPROM Eraser to erase the EPROM card (if required).

Connecting the Z88 to the Desktop to transfer the programs to the Z88.

See Computer Links for more details

Making an Eazylink/Flashstore ROM

If you have

  • 32K EPROM (this can be a MAC LINK or PC LINK card)
  • EPROM ERASER

consider building a copy of this first, so that you can use Eazylink to transfer the OZ image, see Creating Eazylink/Flashstore rather than using the slower Imp/Export pop-down.

If you unable to use a separate card, you can temporary use it in same flashcard that OZ will be in. The procedure would be:-

  • Save Eazylink ROM to the Flashcard
  • Download the Files to RAM
  • Delete the Eazylink image from the Flash card.
  • Save the OZ image from RAM to the Flash card.



Note: All data on the flash card will be deleted. Backup this data beforehand if required.
