Tape loading

Selecting an .o (ZX80) or .p (ZX81) file opens the tape. This is indicated by the user LED. The LOAD command will load it as it would be on a standard tape. If there's no opened file, the standard ROM load routine is executed, and it can receive tape data from the UART port. Reset (ALT-F11 or the Reset OSD option) closes the .o or .p file.
