IMPORTANT: THE WIRES IN THIS MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE. BLUE: NEUTRAL BROWN: LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED. [. . . ] 1 through 9. When making connections to the ports, be careful not to lose the removed screws. If a screw is accidentally swallowed, immediately consult a physician. Direct playback(Normal playback) A phrase is played back when a control signal is input directly to the terminal with the number to which the phrase is assigned. Up to 9 phrases can be played back. Assign Phrases 1 through 9 beforehand to Port Nos. This makes it very convenient when you want to specify a desired phrase directly using a switch, relay, sensor, or other such means. Types of Control Input Playback There are four types of control input playback: Playback by Card Data (p. * You cannot use more than one type of playback at the same time. 28 Controlling the MKB-200 from an External Device (Control Input Connectors) fig. inp-02 fig. inp-05 A Control Signal A Control Signal A Control Signal A Control Signal A Control Signal A Control Signal HIGH LOW 1 > 2 > 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . > 9 2 3 4 5 Port No. 1 Phrase 0001 0002 0003 0004 0005 9 0009 When a new high-priority control signal is input during phrase playback, playback of the current phrase is stopped, and playback of the specified phrase begins. fig. inp-06 Connectors Used for Direct Play (Control I/O Connector) "1­9": Inputting a control signal directly to the terminal with the number corresponding to the phrase starts playback of the phrase. In addition to the connectors just described, shorting "11/12 (GND)" (ground) connectors enables "On.

" MKB-200 Settings Selecting the Control Input Mode Set the MODE switches on the MKB-200's bottom panel to select "PLAYBACK BY CARD DATA" from the control input modes (PLAYBACK BY CARD DATA/DIRECT PLAYBACK/BINARY PLAYBACK/INTERVAL PLAYBACK). * You cannot achieve control input playback merely by connecting a device to the port. * Use a pointed object to change the ON/OFF settings of the MODE switches.

A maximum of 250 phrases can be selected and played back with this method. This allows you to specify 250 phrases with control signals (from a switch or other ON/OFF signal device), without having to use computers or other complicated equipment. "Important Notes on Making Connections and Switching the Power On and Off" (p. 9) Even without connecting to all eight connectors used for making the binary specifications, you can still conduct Binary Playback. The number of phrases that can be specified is determined by the formula "two to the nth power minus one" (with "n" being the number of connectors used). Example: Using three timers or other such devices capable of outputting the necessary signals gives two to the third power minus one (i. e. , 8 - 1 = 7), meaning you can specify the seven phrases 001 through 007. However, start signals feature other special requirements. 31 Controlling the MKB-200 from an External Device (Control Input Connectors) Operational Specifications of Binary Playback Basic Operation of Binary Playback fig. inp-16 Procedure for Setting the Control Input Mode 1.
