How to use the R-Type 4-1
Revision R2005-2 R-Type
7 +RZ#WR#XVH#WKH#507\SH
This section of the manual provides instructions and information on how to use the
R-Type and may be seen as a practical guide as to how specific procedures are car-
ried out.
The very nature of the R-Type is such that its flexibility allows for several ways to
achieve the same end result. To avoid confusion, this means that in this section you
will learn how to carry out certain procedures to achieve a desired outcome. This
does not, however, imply that the same outcome cannot be achieved by taking a dif-
ferent route.
In order to assist you in the most effective way to quickly become familiar with the
operation of the R-Type, we recommend that you initially follow the directions given
below and as you gain experience you may well find that alternative routes suit your
work practice better.
The directions given assume that the power supplies are in position ON, the buttons
for 13V, 18V and 48V are pressed and that the console is in its default condition.
Preferably, the CCM memory should be cleared and finally, the display on the CCM
should read ‘Welcome to the R-Type’.
