This section shows some examples of these. You can use these examples as a starting point for making changes to match your own usage circumstances.
9 Examples of Usage and Connection for the AR-200S By connecting an RS-232C cable, you can control the AR-200S from an external control device, such as a computer or touch panel (p. 17). fig.Use-03.e There are several methods for doing this. Choose a playback method that matches your usage conditions.
10 Playback Instructions (Control Input Playback) You can use the control input and DC input screw terminals (CONTROL A) and the 25-pin D-sub-type control I/O connector (CONTROL B) on the AR- 200S’s rear panel to control the AR-200S from an external device.
11 Playback Instructions (Control Input Playback) Selecting the Control Input Mode With the power to the AR-200S switched off, set the MODE switches on the bottom panel as shown below. SW 1: OFF, SW 2: OFF Assigning Phrases to the Terminals Assign phrases 1 through 9 to Port Nos.
12 Playback Instructions (Control Input Playback) By inputting binary (Base 2) signals to Port Nos. 1 through 8 to select a phrase and inputting a start message to the START terminal, you can then play back the selected phrase. A maximum of 250 phrases can be selected and played back with this method.
13 Playback Instructions (Control Input Playback) The specified phrase will be played back at fixed intervals. Make each of the terminal settings beforehand for the playback interval and phrases to be played back. • When making settings in Interval Playback mode, assign Phrases 1 through 9 to the control output connectors 1 through 9.
14 Recording Instructions (Terminal Rec) In order perform recording matched to usage conditions, including the connected equipment, recording source, sound quality, time, and playback system, you make recording settings. • Recording settings are made in phrase units.

Selecting Recording Type With the power to the AR-200S turned off, set the REC MODE switches on the bottom panel as shown below.

Even when control signals are input continuously, the phrase is played back one time only and then ends. fig.CtrIn-Rec04.e * Playback does not begin if the binary-specified phrase is empty (the playback instruction is disabled).
17 About Control Using RS-232C The AR-200S can be controlled using serial communications from a computer, touch panel, or other device via RS-232C. You can control a number of operations including recording, playback, switching settings, and editing phrases.
18 Controlling Another Device with the AR-200S (Control Output Connectors) You can use the 25-pin D-sub-type control I/O connector (CONTROL B) on the AR-200S’s rear panel to control an external device from the AR-200S. The AR-200S outputs two kinds of control signals, Busy Out and Control Out.
19 Other Useful Functions During Phrase Playback Moreover, by using an optional AR-3000 to create and edit phrases, you can also use the following functions. For detailed information, please refer to the AR-3000 owner’s manual. * You cannot make settings for these parameters on the AR-200S.

Recording times are halved when data is recorded in stereo. * These times are for when 1 phrase is recorded continuously, and are provided for your reference when recording.
