I'm not familiar with the Model 200, but you should be able to get a lot of the basic programs to work if the
display is located at 0x3000 as the Model 1 and 3.

It happens that I was sitting here reading this post with the Model 100 handbook open beside me. Appendix C gives information about "Transferring Data Between the Model 100 and the Model II". I do not have a Model I, II, III or 4 (yet) but I do have a Model 100 and a Model 102. While I can't verify the technique, therefore, apparently it is possible.
I have scanned Appendix C and am attaching the OCR to this message..

Transfering Data Between the Model 100
and the Model II
You may transfer data between the Model 100 and the Model II using the Terminal program on
the Model II and the TELCOM program on the Model 100. Model 100 programs must be stored
in ASCII format (files with a .DO extension — either Text files or else BASIC program files
SAVEd with the A option.)
First, make the preliminary hardware and software connections by following these steps:
1. Connect the two computers via an RS-232C Cable (26-4403) and a Null Modem Adapter
(26-1496). See Figure A-4 in Appendix A.
2. Insert a TRSDOS System Diskette which contains the TERMINAL Program into the
Model II. (All standard TRSDOS 2.0 System Diskettes contain the program).
3. Initialize the drive by typing:
(ENTER
and then initialize the RS-232C port by typing:
SETCOM A= ( 4130 0 te tE ) (ENTER)
You may use other SETCOM parameters for the Model II as long as the Model 100 can
match them. The settings used in this example allow the fastest data transfer.
4. Now enter the Model II TERMINAL program by typing:
TERMINAL (ENTER)
5. On the Model 100, move the Menu Cursor to the word TELCOM and press (ENTER). The
TELCOM prompt will appear. Press STAT ((F3)) and type:
7 8E1E ENTER
This sets the Model 100 communication parameters to match the parameters you previously
set on the Model II.
6. Enter the Model 100 Terminal Mode by pressing TERM ((F4)).
Now that the Computers are connected and have matching communication parameters, you may
transmit files to and from the two machines.
Downloading File from the Model II to the Model 100
To download a Model II file to the Model 100, follow these steps:
1. On the Model 100, press DOWN ((F2)). TELCOM will prompt you for a file name. Enter the
name of the new file, using the .D0 extension (TELCOM will add this extension if you don't
supply it), then press ENTER). The label Down will appear in reverse video.
2. On the Model II, type G (ENTER) (for get disk file), and enter the filespec of the file to be
transferred to the Model 100.
3. Once the file is in RAM, type X (ENTER) on the Model II to transmit the file. As the file goes
to the Model 100, TELCOM displays the information being transfered on the Model 100
Screen.
4. When all of the data has been transmitted. press ED on the Model 100 to exit the Terminal
Mode. When prompted Disconnect?, press CD (ENTER).
5. Press (BREAK) on the Model II to return to the TERMINAL Menu. Then type Q ENTER to exit
the TERMINAL program.
The Model II file is now stored in the Model 100's memory under the file name you specified.
Uploading Model 100 Text Files to a Model II
To transmit a Model 100 file to a Model II, follow these steps:
1. Enter the TERMINAL Program on the Model II by typing T (ENTER
2. On the Model 100, press UPLOAD
.
3. TELCOM prompts you for the name of the file to be uploaded. Type the file name
(remember that it must have the .DO extension!) and press
(ENTER
4. TELCOM will then prompt you for width. This refers to the maximum number of characters
transmitted before transmitting a carriage return. Enter an appropriate value, then press
(ENTER) . Remember that the Display on the Model 100 is 40 characters wide.
If you want to send the file "as is," simply press
ENTER)
5. As the file is transferred, the Up label appears in reverse video, and the transmitted data
appears on the Model II Screen.
6. When the transmission is complete, the Up label returns to normal video.
On the Model II, press (BREAK) to return to the TERMINAL menu. Now press C (ENTER) to
save the RAM buffer to a disk file. TERMINAL prompts you for the file name. Enter any
valid file name. To exit from the TERMINAL program on the Model II, type Q (ENTER).
7. To exit the TELCOM program on the Model 100, press F8 to exit the Terminal Mode.
When prompted Disconnect ?, press (Y) (ENTER). Now press F8 again to return to the
Main Menu.
The Model 100 file is now stored on your Model II disk, under the specified file name. The new
file will have a Record Length of 1.
