The following flow-charts show briefly the operating sequences which are required 
to complete all the functions available on the 

SMART 200 TTS 

system. 

The use of the quick reference guide supposes that the user has already acquired a 
certain ability in handling the system, therefore there are no detailed explanations 
of each screen shot; there is only a global overview of the required steps, for each 
function. For an explanation of the symbols used in the quick reference guide, 
please refer to “Symbols key” shown at the bottom of each page.
