(18) Slot card socket

The slot card is located in the bottom of the AR8200 cabinet and protected from dust etc by a door which
is hinged toward the back edge of the cabinet. To access the socket place the AR8200 on its back and
open the front edge of the protective door. Be careful to keep dust and dirt from this socket and to
prevent liquid entering the AR8200 via this socket. Ensure that no conductive material is allowed to short
circuit the socket which may damage the receiver.

18-1-1 Fitting the slot card

Always switch the AR8200 off when inserting slot card. To
access the socket place the AR8200 on its back and open the front
edge of the protective door. With the AR8200 keypad facing upward,
hold the slot card so that its label also faces upward. An arrow printed on
the slot card indicates the direction of entry into the AR8200, insert the
connector end of the slot card into the AR8200 (the end you will be left
holding has groves to help grip). Without using excessive force, use a
thumb to push the slot card fully into the body of the AR8200 until it is slightly
recessed into the bottom of the receiver. Close the hinged slot card compartment cover.
Note: The AR8200 will automatically recognise each optional slot card, there is no need to
initialise the option (except for the EM8200, see later).
When slot cards are fitted, the AR8200 menu system dynamically changes to reflect the slot card
currently fitted. If however the AR8200 'thinks' that a slot card option is fitted when it isn't, access the
slot card menu and disable the option.
