8.5 ARUA-10 (USB Audio Controller) Freeware

We have released ARUA-10, a USB audio control software, which allows the microphone and speaker of a PC to be used
in place those of the TS-590SG.

Refer also to TS-590SG USB Audio Setting Manual on the 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.

8.5.1 Basic Functions

If ARUA-10 and ARCP-590G are used in combination, you can use the microphone and speaker connected to the PC in
place of those on the transceiver simply by connecting TS-590SG and the PC with a USB cable. To use ARCP-590G over
the USB cable connection, a virtual COM port driver needs to be installed.
If you use only ARUA-10 over a USB cable connection, the virtual port driver doesn t need to be installed. If you are using
only the built-in USB sound function of the TS-590SG, the function runs on the standard driver of Windows.

8.5.2 Operation

ARUA-10 bridges the built-in USB sound function (USB audio device) of TS-590SG and the sound device that controls the
microphone and speaker on the PC.
The audio input signal from the microphone of the PC is input to the modulation input of the USB audio device of TS-590SG.
The audio output from the USB audio device of TS-590SG is output from the speaker of the PC.
