It supports both serial (RS‑232) and parallel control interfaces, allowing computer‑based operation and integration into larger systems. This manual explains how to connect, configure, and control the player via these interfaces.
The document details the pin assignments for the 9‑pin and 15‑pin D‑Sub connectors, RS‑232 voltage levels, command sets for playback control, and internal register functions. It also covers external switch functions, power control, and provides reference data for developers implementing custom control software. This manual is written in Japanese.
