A semicolon ' ; ' is placed at the end of the parameter.

3.1.3 About Input Parameters

1) Generally, parameters use decimal notation, and are variable length.

Example) stxDC:10;	stxDC:5;
Example) stxMP:A1,30;	,stxMP:A20,255;

2)Characters in a card name etc. are enclosed in double quotation marks ( “ ). Example) stxCV:0,“ABCDEFGH”,0;

3)The phrase and the card slot are specified together.

Example) stxPA:A1; ( plays back phrase 1 of card A )

*A01 , A001 or A0001 is the same as A1.

3.1.4About Output Parameters

Example) phrase name( A1000 , B1000 ) : A1000 , B1000

Example) Time : 00H00M06S14F7S / 05M40S / 00S04F / 30S0 _.
