Section 2 Setup

2.1 RS-232C Setup

RS-232C is a standardized type of serial interface. The connections which are used by the AR-3000SD are discussed below.

2.1.1 Connector and Cable

Connector specifications Cable specifications

* These are already connected in inside of the AR-3000SD. (4–6 and 7–8) * At least three lines (RXD, TXD and GND) should be connected as shown in a figure.

2.1.2 Handshaking

e AR-3000SD's processing speed is slower than the speed at which data is transmitted from the

If th computer, measures must be taken to avoid data loss. Conversely, data loss will also occur if data is transmitted from the AR-3000SD faster than the computer can process it. For these reasons, the AR-3000SD uses “Xon/Xoff” handshaking. The external computer can control transmission from the AR-3000SD in the same way.

The ASCII code signal name for Xon is DC1, which is 11h. The ASCII code signal name for Xoff is DC3, which is 13h.

2.1.3 Setup Procedure

e is the procedure for setting up the external computer and the AR-3000SD.

Her

1) Connections with the computer

Use an RS-232C cable to connect the two devices. Refer to “2.1.4 Connections with the computer.”

2) Turn on the power for the AR-3000SD and the computer

3) Computer settings

Set the communication parameters. Refer to “2.1.5 Computer settings.”

4) AR-3000SD settings

Set the communication parameters. Refer to “2.1.6 AR-3000SD settings.”

5) Operate the AR-3000SD

Transmit data between the external computer and the AR-3000SD.

2.1.4 Conn ections with the Computer

Turn off the power of the AR-3000SD and the computer.

2) Use the appropriate cable to connect the RS-232C -compatible connector of the computer to the RS-232C connector located on the rear panel of the AR-3000SD. Refer to “2.1.1 Connector and Cable” for the appropriate cable to use.

2.1.5 Computer Settings

Communication parameters for the computer

Communication method start - stop system (asynchronous) full duplex Baud rate 4,800 / 9,600 / 14,400 / 19,200 / 31,250 / 38,400 / 57,600 / 115,200 bps Select the same setting as on the AR-3000SD. Parity none Data length 8 bits Stop bit 1 bit Code set ASCII Xon/Xoff on

2.1.6 AR-3000SD Settings

n using the AR-3000SD via RS-232C, the baud rate must be specified. Also, in order for it to be

Whe controlled via RS-232C, the AR-3000SD must not be in the MENU function (the MENU indicator must not be lit).

2.1.7 Baud Rate

If the AR-30

00SD's power is turned on when a card is not inserted, the baud rate will default to 9,600 bps. If a card is then inserted, the settings will change to the settings which are contained in the card. However this will occur only for the first-inserted card, and subsequently inserted cards will be ignored. If you wish to modify the baud rate during operation, use the following procedure on the AR-3000SD to change it.

Baud Rate Settings

Set the baud rate to the desired value.

1) Press the MENU button.

2) Rotate the SELECT knob to select “7.1 Baud Rate.”

3) Press the SELECT knob.

4) Rotate the SELECT knob to select the baud rate. Baud Rate = 4,800 / 9,600 / 14,400 / 19,200 / 31,250 / 38,400 / 57,600 / 115,200 bps Select the same setting as on the computer.

5) Press the SELECT knob. Rotate the SELECT knob to select “YES” Press the ENTER button to set the baud rate.

6) Press the MENU button.

2.1.8 Examples of control using the terminal program

This describes examples of control using a general terminal program.

Referring to the example below, make the port setting for the terminal program.

Baud rate Communication speed set on the AR-3000SD Data bit length 8 Parity None Stop bits 1 Flow control Xon/Xoff

Making the setting to perform local echo makes it possible to use the terminal program to view commands sent to the AR-3000SD.

Prepare a card on which some phrase is recorded as the first phrase.

When cable connections and settings are correct, then inserting a card into the AR-3000SD, the terminal program displays "stxCC:1,0;" as shown below. “stx” is an ASCII-code signal name. It is a control code indicating the start of a transmission, and is 02h in hexadecimal. The method used to display control codes varies according to the terminal program. Depending on the terminal program, it might not be displayed.

stxCC:1,0;

If this is not displayed, check the cable connections and the selected port. If text corruption occurs, it is possible that the baud rate setting is incorrect.

When a PL command (stxPL;) is sent from the computer to the AR-3000SD, the first phrase is played back. The method used to send the stx command varies according to the terminal program. In a typical terminal program, stx can be sent by holding down "Ctrl" on the keyboard and pressing the "B" key. Type in "Ctrl + B", "P", "L", ";". Type "P" and "L" as upper-case letters.

stxPL;

When a PL command is received, the AR-3000SD returns “ack” to the computer. “ack” is an ASCII-code signal name. It is a control code indicating correct reception, and is 06h in hexadecimal.

ack

When phrase playback ends, the AR-3000SD returns an ST command (stxST:0;) to the computer.

stxST:0;

2.2.2 Network Settings

What is an IP Address? An IP address is a number that represents a 32-bit address used to identify a specific host on a network according to the TCP/IP protocol. Accordingly, each IP address on the network must have its own unique, fixed address.

What is the Subnet Mask? The subnet mask is used to "mask" part of the IP address so as to enable the TCP/IP protocol to distinguish between the network ID and the host ID.

Example) IP Address 111.18.10.2 Subnet Mask 255.255.240.0 Network ID 111.18.0 Host ID 10.2

What is the Gateway? A gateway acts to convert protocols and relay data between two or more connected networks.

If the results of the ping command indicate that the network connection has not been made correctly, check the following.

･ Is the power to the AR-3000SD turned on? ･ Is the power to the hub turned on? ･ Is the UTP cable connection without any problems? ･ Is the type of UTP cable correct (straight or crossover)? ･ Is there a conflict with the IP address assigned to another device? ･ Are the subnet mask and gateway settings correct?

If a proxy server is on the LAN, then depending on the proxy settings, establishing a connection might not be possible unless further steps are performed. To establish a connection, try one of the following methods.

1) Use the Internet option to make the settings for connecting directly to the Internet and not via the proxy server.

2) Use the Internet option to register the IP address assigned to the AR-3000SD as not to use the proxy.

3) Contact your network administrator to register the IP address of the AR-3000SD in the DNS database.

Section 3 Overview of Commands

The AR-3000SD and the control PC communicate by means of commands. There are a number of different types of commands. The commands used to control the AR-3000SD vary according to the intended purpose.

3.1 Summary of Commands (RS-232C)

Commands consist of STX (02H) + two uppercase characters. However, the Type 0 commands listed later are exceptions to this.

Depending on the command, four types of communication protocol are used between the computer and the AR-3000SD. As also explained in chapter 4, the ACK referred to in this document is ASCII code 06H (ACK), and the ER command is a command that transmits/receives an error.

3.2 Summary of Commands (Telnet)

Commands are basically formed as strings of ASCII code consisting of two alphabetic characters followed by a colon (“:”), a parameter (a numerical value), and a comma (“,”). The two alphabetic characters represent the type of command. However, some commands may have more than one forms (refer to “3.1.2 About Command Formats”). Either uppercase or lowercase characters may be used in commands.

Example: Example:

3.3 Communication Protocol

Depending on the command, four types of communication protocol are used between the computer and the AR-3000SD.

1) When telling the AR-3000SD to perform an operation or make a setting. This is done using the “4.2.1 Control” and “4.2.3 Setting commands” explained in Section 4. Commands use the following procedure.

a. command COMPUTER AR-3000SD b. ack/OK or ER command

a. The command is sent from the computer to the AR-3000SD. b. If the command is received correctly, the AR-3000SD will transmit an ack/OK command. If not,

it will transmit an ER command.

2) To verify the settings of the AR-3000SD

This is done using the 4.2.4 Request command explained in Section 4. The command to check the setting

status of the AR-3000SD uses the following procedure.

a. command COMPUTER AR-3000SD b. command or ER command

c. ack/OK or ER command

a. The command is sent from the computer to the AR-3000SD. b. If the command was received correctly, the AR-3000SD will transmit its settings as the Setting

output command. If the command was received incorrectly, the AR-3000SD will transmit an ER command.

c. If the output from the AR-3000SD is received correctly, send an ack/OK command. This OK

may be omitted, and is not absolutely necessary. If not correctly, an ER command “ER:0” can be sent to the AR-3000SD. The AR-3000SD will re-transmit the Setting output command that was

pl PL pe PE

00SD (Ver.1.00) Command Reference - 28

AR-30

Page 29

ut instep “b”. This command may also be omitted, and is not absolutely necessary.

outp You may instead re-do the sequence from step “a”.

3) Commands originating automatically from the AR-3000SD

Some commands are transmitted automatically from the AR-3000SD. The two commands CC (card

insertion status output) and %% (completion status output when a card operation takes place) fall in this category, and use the following procedure.

a. command COMPUTER AR-3000SD

a. The AR-3000SD will automatically transmit the command.

There is no need to return an ack/OK, etc.

4) Commands accompanied by confirmation

The 4.2.2 Edit command explained in Section 4 is of this type. To prevent accidental erasure of data,

edit commands are executed after entering Delete mode. Commands use the following procedure.

a. command COMPUTER AR-3000SD b. ack/OK or ER command

c. Edit command d. Edit command (same as step “c.”) e. ack/OK or ER command

a. Transmit the DM command. The AR-3000SD will enter Delete mode. b. If the DM command is received correctly, an ack/OK will be returned. If there is a command

error, the ER command will be returned and the AR-3000SD will automatically exit Delete

mode. c. If no error has occurred, transmit the command you wish to execute. d. To confirm, the AR-3000SD will send back the command that it received in step “c”. e. If the command is correct, send an ack/OK. This will cause the command to be executed. Then,

after receiving the command, the AR-3000SD will automatically exit Delete mode. If the

command is an error, you can send an ER command “ER:1”. The command will be canceled, and

the AR-3000SD will exit Delete mode.

3.4 Command Format

Commands (control signals) have several formats.

Type 0: Those consisting only of a control code.

semicolon ‘;’ etc. is not attached. These consist only of a control code. Example) ack

Type 1: Commands with no parameters

Example)

Type 2: Commands with parameters.

Command: parameter, parameter . . . Command and parameter are separated by a colon ‘ Parameter and parameter are separated by a comma ‘

:’

,’

3.5 About Input Parameters

1) Generally, parameters use decimal notation, and are variable length. Example)

Example) MP:A1,30 MP:A20,255

2) Characters in a card name etc. are enclosed in double quotation marks (").

Example)

3) The phrase and the card slot are specified together. Example)

- A01, A001 or A0001 is the same as A1.

DC:10 DC:5

CV:0,"ABCDEFGH",0 PA:A1 (plays back phrase 1 of card A)

00SD (Ver.1.00) Command Reference - 29

AR-30

Page 30

3.6 About Output Parameters

1) Generally, parameters use decimal notation, and are variable length. But phrase name and time are

fixed length.

Example) phrase name (A1 – A999, B1 – B999): A001, A020, A300, _. Example) phrase name (A1000, B1000): A1000, B1000 Example) Time: 00H00M06S14F7S, 05M40S, 00S04F, 30S0 _.

3.7 Precautions

1) After you make settings, erase, or copy, we recommend that you call up the AR-3000SD internal

memory data and check the contents.

2) While the computer and the AR-3000SD are communicating, please avoid the following actions, which

could result in destruction of the data in the card.

- Inserting or removing the memory card.

- Moving the protect switch of the card.

- Disconnecting the UTP cable. ...etc.

Section 4 Details of each Command

4.1 Commands Transmitted from the External Device (Computer) to the AR-3000SD

The following 5 types of command are transmitted from the external device to the AR-3000SD. “External” in these explanations refers to the computer. “AR” refers to the AR-3000SD.

1) Control (execute) commands

These command signals cause the AR-3000SD to operate; e.g., playback or record.

The player functions use mostly these commands.

2) Editing commands

To prevent accidental erasure of data, edit commands are executed after entering Delete mode.

Commands are executed using the following procedure.

1. External to AR

The DM command is sent, and the AR-3000SD enters Delete mode.

2. AR to External

When the command is received correctly, an ack/OK is returned. If the command is not correct, an error code is returned, and Delete mode is automatically exited.

* When no command is received for two minutes, the Delete mode is automatically exited.

3. External to AR

If no error has occurred, transmit the command to be executed.

4. AR to External

The command transmitted in step 3 will be re-transmitted for confirmation.

5. External to AR

If the command is correct, transmit an ack/OK command. The command will be executed, and Delete mode will be exited automatically. If the command is an error, transmit an ER command “ER:1”. Delete mode will be exited automatically.

Commands valid when in Delete mode (External to AR)

PD: Delete Phrase PC: Copy Phrase FM: Format Card CD: Delete Card CP: Copy Card SP: System Copy LS: Recorded phrase protect mode LW: Recorded phrase protect mode

- In Delete mode, when a command other than an Edit command is received by the AR-3000SD,

it will automatically exit Delete mode, and execute that command. If the AR-3000SD receives an Edit command when not in Delete mode, it will transmit an ER command, and ignore the Edit command that was received.

3) Setting commands

These commands are used to set AR-3000SD parameters from the external device.

4) Request commands

This command causes the AR-3000SD to output the status of its current settings. When a Request

command is transmitted to the AR-3000SD, the AR-3000SD will transmit the requested contents as the Setting output command. In this case, an OK will not be returned. However for the AC and AQ commands, an OK will be output. If the command was not correct, an ER command will be returned.

5) Reply commands

Reply commands are necessary for communication control, for example to notify that a command was

received correctly.

5.3 Sample Algorithms

The following are some examples of processing algorithms.

5.3.1 Playing Back a Phrase

*1 Refer to the error number to determine the cause. Is the command format incorrect? *2 “OK” will be output if the AR-3000SD correctly recognizes the command.

Note:

- You can check the operating status by transmitting the AC command.

- You can stop playback by transmitting the ST command.

5.3.2 Recording (Normal Recording)

*1 Setting such as RDAC-Grade and RDAC-Mode are made by RM command parameters.

Note:

- You can check the operating status by transmitting the AC command.

- You can stop recording by transmitting the ST command.

5.3.4 Verifying the Parameters (Data Settings) of All Phrases Starting with the Lowest-Numbered Phrase

*1 What is the Phrase Output Counter?

The AR-3000SD has an internal counter for phrase output. When a phrase is output, the phrase that corresponds to the AR-3000SD's counter will be output. The maximum value will be the highest phrase number of each card. This will be reset by the AQ command (to the lowest phrase number).

*2 What is QQ Command Function 2?

If the phrase number is not specified by a parameter, the AR-3000SD will automatically increment the phrase output counter, and will output the corresponding phrase. The incremented value will skip phrase numbers which are not recorded yet, and will be up to the next recorded phrase number. If the QQ command is received to request output after the last phrase has been output, the AR-3000SD will output an ER command (Error number 101).

Section 6 Concerning Cards Used with the AR

This section describes the card content that is required when using the FTP function to transfer data on cards used by the AR-3000SD.

6.1 Card Types Used by the AR

Usable cards include cards formatted on the AR-3000SD/3000R/3000/200S/200 in AR-3000 format, and cards formatted on the AR-2000/100 in AR-2000 format. The cards should contain the following files.

System data files: Settings (recording settings, control input settings, MIDI settings,

RS-232C settings, and system settings) Phrase data files: Phrase data for each phrase Audio phrases: Actual phrases recorded on the AR Pattern phrase files: Pattern phrase registration information Song phrase files: Song phrase registration information MIDI phrase files: SMF (Standard MIDI Files) Format 0 Command phrase file: RS-232C control file

* For more on terminology related to the content of each file, refer to the device owner’s manual.

6.2 File Organization on AR-3000 Format Cards

Files on cards formatted on the AR-3000SD/3000R/3000/200S/200 are organized as shown in the figure below.

File Structure on AR-3000 Format Cards

Important Note If the _AR3TSYS.CNF and _AR3TPHR.CNF files are present in the _AR3TDIR.CNF folder when an AR-3000 card is inserted in an AR-3000SD/3000R/3000/200S/200, then the _AR2TSYS.CNF and _AR2TPHR.CNF files are disregarded, and the card is recognized as an AR-3000 format card. If the _AR3TSYS.CNF and _AR3TPHR.CNF files have been deleted from the card, then the card is no longer recognized as an AR-3000 format card, so be sure not to delete the _AR3TSYS.CNF and _AR3TPHR.CNF files.

6.3 Using FTP Functions to Change the Content of a Card Inserted in an FTP-Connected Device

First, set up the same environment (same device and card with the same content) as the device connected via FTP.

* If the card does not contain the same data, then use a device identical to the one connected via FTP to

create a card in the same format as that in the original device. Then, using FTP, copy the data from the card in the FTP-connected device to the newly formatted card.

Into the prepared device, insert the card which is identical in content to the one in the FTP- connected device, then perform the modifications you require. Possible modifications are described in the following.

6.3.1 Changing the Settings

ge the settings on the prepared device, then transfer the card’s system data file.

Chan

6.3.2 Changing Phrase Data

ge the phrase data on the prepared device, then transfer the card’s phrase data file.

Chan

6.3.3 Changing Phrase Files

ge the phrase data on the prepared device (add, erase, overwrite, etc.).

Chan

If adding or overwriting, then transfer all edited phrase files (_ARP****.PHR, _ARP****.WAV, _ARP****.MID).

If erasing data, delete the phrase file (_ARP****.PHR, _ARP****.WAV, _ARP****.MID) you want to erase on the device connected via FTP.
