ARHP-590 allows a user to check the operating status of ARHP-590 and TS-590S even after
minimized. You can check the status of the power of the TS-590S (Power ON or Power OFF) and
your connection and transmission statuses.

For details of Kenwood Network Command System, refer to 8.3.3. KNS (Kenwood Network
Command System).
ARHP-590 has a capability to disable the AF gain control from the ARCP-590. While AF gain is
controlled from ARCP-590, the audio volume of the TS-590S may be adjusted in an unexpected way.
Therefore, we have added a function to disable this control.
To enable this function, from the Tool pulldown menu, select “Setup” and click on the Prohibits
control of AF gain from ARCP-590 checkbox.
We have released ARUA-10, the USB audio control software to allow the PC’s microphone and
speaker to be used in place those of the TS-590S.
ARUA-10 is available free and can be downloaded from Kenwood’s website.

Refer also to “TS-590S USB Audio Setting Manual” on the Kenwood’s website.
Caution:
For USB audio, time delay is unavoidable due to its operating principle. Therefore, USB audio cannot be used for a latency-
critical application (e.g. operations in a contest or pileup where a quick response is essential).
During the operation with KNS over a network connection, ARUA-10 is not required.
