controls and displays are especially large for fast and accurate operation.
Key functions include:
•
Stage Mode
- For live performance
•
Program Function
- Record beats, tempos and sounds for up to 30 songs.
•
Independent Tap Key

PRECAUTIONS
*
Avoid subjecting the RW200 to impact, such as dropping it or handling it roughly.
*
Turn off the power before storing the RW200.
*
Storage or use of RW200 that subjects the unit to direct sunlight, high temperature, or
humidity can cause the RW200 to malfunction or fail permanently.
*
Do not use thinners, benzene, or other similar solvents to clean the RW200.
*
Either a 9 V battery (S-006P) or an AC adaptor (DC9V center minus) can be used as
the power supply. Do not use any other type of power supply.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
When the battery begins to run down, the LCD and the LED darkens, and
sound weakens. When the bar of the battery level indicator on LCD disap
-
pears, performance will rapidly deteriorate. Replace battery promptly. Note:
Heavy use of the backlight will run batteries down quickly.
Battery Replacement Procedure
1.
Slide the battery cover on the back of the RW200 in the direction indicated by the
arrow in the diagram, and take off the battery cover.
2.
Take out the old battery and insert the new one.
3.
Slide the cover in the opposite direction from that indicated by the arrow, attaching
the cover in its original position.
*
Always check to make sure the power switch has been turned off before replacing the
battery or connecting the AC adaptor.
*
After replacing the battery, turn the power on and check to make sure the RW200
functions properly.
Automatic power-off function
The RW200 has an automatic power-off function to avoid unnecessary battery
power drainage. If the RW200 is powered without being operated for approx
-
imately one hour, the power will automatically turn off. In order to turn the
power on next time, you need to slide POWER switch to the off position once
and turn on.
This auto-off feature can be disabled by doing the following: Turn the POWER
on while simultaneously pushing START/STOP key. LCD will first display
“OFF.” Continue to hold buttons until normal display screen appears. The
auto-off feature is now disabled, until the unit’s POWER is shut off. Once you
turn the POWER off, this default auto-off feature becomes effective again.
Memory backup
The RW200 incorporates a flash-memory device that saves programs
semi-permanently without power supply.
Using the backlight
1.
The backlight will be turned on when you operate the POWER switch, control knobs/
switches, or the TEMPO dial, and stay on for approximately 10 seconds from the last
operation.
2.
The backlight is enabled in the above conditions by default. If the backlight
is unnecessary, it can be disabled by pressing BACKLIGHT/STORE key for
approximately 2 seconds. Press BACKLIGHT/STORE key for 2 seconds again or
turn the power off once, and backlight will return to the default condition
.
