By using a personal computer, data consisting of different sounds is created
Connect SD card Reader/Writer to PC, and then insert an SD card.
SD card Reader/Writer
SD card
Personal computer
In the My Computer of the PC, open the drive into which the SD card is inserted.
Within the window opened, click with the right mouse button, and point New Document
and then choose Text Document.
* The name may vary such as notepad depending on the OS and its version.
Change the file name of the created text document to
      
【 OTO-LIST.txt 】
* Use half-size upper- or lowercase letters for the file name.
If the extension ".txt" is not displayed when the text document is created,
change the file name to [ OTO-LIST ].
Enter the number of the sound (see 6-2. Selecting a Sound Group) you want to combine
into the text document created in and store it in the SD card.
* Enter the sound number with half-size numbers of 16 digits.
When a combination of the following sounds are to be created with the type BK-A.
[Example]
CH1. Beep
(slow intermittent horn)
CH2. Amaryllis CH3.
Synthesized Piano
CH4. Grandfather’s Clock CH5. The camptown Races CH6. Shutter
CH7. Cuckoo CH.8 Mary had a little Lamb
Input the number [0125073120022119] in the text file, and store the file.
6-3-2.Transferring the sound combination data
The sound combination data created in "6-3-1. Creating the sound combination data" is transferred
to this product.
Turn on the power of this product, and check if the COM terminal and CH terminal is not
short-circuiting.
Open the front cover, and insert the SD card, in which the data created in "6-3-1. Creating the
sound combination data" is stored, into the card slot. And then, data transfer is started automatically.
When transferring the sound data is completed, it is informed by the sound ‘Pee.’Then, pull out
the SD card.
* The writing completes in 1 second or less. When it is informed by the sound ‘Pipipipi’ or there is
no reaction, the data transfer is not normally completed.Confirm the contents of data and operation
procedure.In addition, take note that if the volume control is set to the minimum, the informing sound
cannot be heard.
Set the sound group selection switch to H, and confirm the sound of each channel .
As for the SD card, use the type SDV-128P sold separately. Operation is not guaranteed
if an SD card of any other type is used.
When formatting the SD card, do it in FAT16.
When inserting the SD card, pay attention to the orientation of the SD card. And do not forcibly
insert the SD card into the card slot. Doing so may cause damage to the SD card and/or
the product.
Pay attention that no foreign object enter into the card slot.
Other Precautions
6-4.
Adjusting the Sound Volume
The sound volume can be adjusted using the
volume control. Use a flat-blade screwdriver with
the blade thickness of 1.0mm or thinner for turning
the volume control.
Turn the volume control lightly. It may be damaged if a torque of 0.3Nm or more is applied.
If sound volume is increased, sound cracking may occur depending on a sound.
Even if the volume is set at the minimum level, the sound condition may not become silent,
depending on the environment of usage.
