This manual describes the use of the ARES-P II
+
in the FAT mode.
For using the Ares-P II
+
in the NFS mode, please refer to the previous Ares-P II manual or to the
Ares-P / RCX220 manual.
WARNING: The ARES-P II
+
has a built-in charger (charge current = 300mA). NiCd or Ni-Metal-
Hydride cells can be used.
WHEN USING THE EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY, CHECK THAT THE CHARGER SWITCH INSIDE
THE BATTERY COMPARTIMENT IS OFF BEFORE INSTALLING DRY CELLS.
1 DELIVERED WITH:
5 dry cells AA, 1 DIN connector 12 pin, 1 Mini jack 90 degrees, 1 USB cable, 1 CDR with Ares
Import, Digigram, Netia Import software and manuals.
2 INSTALLING THE BATTERIES.
To open the machine, push the button on the right side. Inside the battery compartment, push down
the black button and remove the inner cover.
Install the 5 AA cells observing the polarity and replace the inner cover.
Important note:
When using the external
power supply, check
that the switch inside
the battery compartment
is set to OFF before
installing dry cells.
In the OFF position, the charger circuitry is not activated and if an external power supply is connected,
the machine will run from external supply and not from the batteries.
When an external power supply is connected to the ARES-P II
+
, the green led turns on. During charge,
the yellow led turns on. The ARES-P II
+
charges with approx. 300 mA. Charging stops automatically
(yellow led turns off). If the yellow led never turns off, it means that one ore more cells are defective. If
the charger switch is turned on and no batteries are installed while the machine receives external
power, the yellow led starts blinking fast.
3 INSTALLING THE FLASHCARD.
Open the machine by pressing the button on the side. Insert the flashcard push it fully home (eject
button fully out). The Ares-P II
+
allows using linear flash cards, ATA cards and compact flash cards.
Compact flash cards must be installed using an adapter. In the FAT mode, only ATA cards or compact
flash cards can be used.
4 POWER ON, POWER OFF.
Press the POWER ON key (1) for 1 second and the machine switches on. Once the main display is
shown, the type of selected file system and file format are shown briefly. To re -indicate the selected
file format, press the POWER key (1) briefly at any time. (Ex. PCM 48k 16b st). To switch OFF the
machine push the same key again for 1 second.

7 FAT / NFS MODE DIFFERENCES.
The FAT mode means that the ATA or Compact flash card is
formatted according to the FAT standard (FAT 16 or FAT 32) and is directly compatible with a
Windows or Mac O/S. The NFS mode means that the card is formatted with a Nagra format (Nagra
File System), in order to remain compatible with previous machines such as the Ares-C, C-PP, Ares-P
or RCX220. To read a card formatted NFS in a PC, additional PC software is needed.
If no software options are installed, the card will be formatted FAT and via the USB port, Windows or
Mac O/S will recognize the machine as an external hard disk. The recorded files are Broadcast Wave
Format (xxx.wav). Only PCM linear can be recorded (not compressed). Only ATA or Compact flash
cards can be used in the FAT mode.
If equipped with the software option #I, the machine emulates an ARES-P (NFS mode) and allows
MPEG compressed files to be recorded in both the FAT or NFS modes. In the NFS mode, the
maximum bit rate is 192kb/s, in the FAT mode, the maximum bit rate is 384kb/s.
If equipped with software option #I & #II, the machine also emulates an RCX220. This means that
through the USB port, Windows recognizes the machine as an external soundcard when in NFS mode
and as an external removable hard drive in the FAT mode.
Important note: When making linear recordings (WAV) the range of media that can be used is
restricted. The card must be capable of writing data at high speed. A stereo recording at 48kHz
requires a data rate of 2 x 24 bits x 48000 sampling frequency divide by 8 bits per Byte gives a data
rate of 288 kBytes per second.
8 FIRST TIME SWITCH ON.
This is only important in the case that minimum option #1 is installed. Once the batteries have been
installed, the machine will switch on in the FAT mode. The display will show a picture of a cylinder with
the word FAT for several seconds.

Input / output level indication for Left and Right channel
In the stereo mode, bar-graph 1 corresponds to the left channel and 2 to the right channel. In mono
mode, both bar-graphs indicate the input level. From 0dB, the bar-graph shows the headroom up to
+9dB. +9dB corresponds to FF for the AD converter.
Messages
This is the area for messages, such as LOW BATTERY, CARD FULL, NO CARD, etc.
A beep in the headphones corresponds to an arrival of a message on the display.
When pressing shortly the POWER key, the message area will show the file format selected for
recording.
Battery status
When the battery icon shows full, it indicates the batteries are charged. Each step corresponds to
0.256V. When the voltage drops below the first internal reference, a warning beep is heard in the
headphones and the message LOW BATTERY appears in the display. When the voltage drops
below the second internal reference, the machine automatically switches off.
Level Adjustment
This bargraph only appears on the screen during the adjustment of the input sensitivity, the output
level or the ALC threshold adjustment. If no adjustment is made it will disappear after a few seconds.
Simultaneously, the level setting in dBs as well as the kind of adjustment IN, OUT or THR will
appear on the display.
10 RECORD (2, 2bis), REWIND (3), STOP (4), PLAY (5), FORWARD (6) KEYS
10.1 RECORD KEY (2, 2bis)
To start recording, the RECORD key (2) or the RECORD key (2bis), if in the sub-menu it is set for
recording, can be pressed, even if the machine was in PLAY mode or is in one of the sub-menus.
The RECORD key will not work if the machine is formatting the card.
If during record the RECORD key is pressed again, a new Take / Index is automatically created.
During record or play, the MARK key (2 bis), if in the sub-menu it is set for marking, can be pressed
on the fly.
Important: Those marks can be used on an external editing system (Dalet, Netia, Digas, VCS etc.)
and are also used as cut positions on the internal editing system of the ARES-BB
+
(Option #3).
During record, the front red LED as well as the red LED on the keyboard turns ON.
During record, the POWER (1) key as well as the REWIND (3), PLAY (5) and FORWARD (6)
keys are disabled.
10.2 REWIND KEY (3) AND FORWARD KEY (6)
SKIP.
These keys have two functions called SKIP backwards or forwards and REWIND or FORWARD.
To jump index-by-index, pressing briefly on the REWIND (3) or the FORWARD (6) keys will
decrement or increment the index position.
To jump index-by index, pressing briefly the REWIND (3) or the FORWARD (6) keys followed by
holding the same key will fast decrement or increment the index position.
IMPORTANT: Only indexes with the same sampling frequency as the current settings of the machine
can be played back using the SKIP keys. All other indexes with a different sampling frequency cannot
be selected.
If the recording contains MARKS then these keys will jump to the next (or previous) mark position.
Page 8:
Issue: July 18 2006 Page 8
FORWARD SEARCH & BACKWARD SEARCH.
This function can be executed in STOP or PLAY mode. Once the >> or <<key is pressed for
more than 0.5 seconds, the machine starts FORWARD or BACKWARDS SEARCH at 4 times
nominal speed. The longer the key is pressed, the search speed increments up to 128 times nominal
speed. When the key is released, the search stops and it returns to its previous function (STOP or
PLAY).
10.3 STOP KEY (4)
When this key is pressed during record or playback, the machine stops recording or playing and
returns to the EE mode.
The EE mode means that the input signal is fed to the output. This key can also be used as the
PAUSE key during playback.
10.4 PLAY KEY (5)
After a record session pressing the PLAY key, immediately plays back the last recorded Take /
Index.
11 LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
11.1 OUTPUT LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
During the STOP or RECORD mode, the output level can be adjusted by the UP ARROW key (9)
to increase or the DOWN ARROW key (11) to decrease. Once one of these keys is pressed, an
additional bar-graph on the right side of the display appears, indicating OUT, showing the current
position of the adjustment. 0dB corresponds to maximum output level, -59dB corresponds to
minimum output level and OFF corresponds to mute of the output signal.
The setting of the output level can also be stored in the machine in such a way that every time the
machine is switched ON, it will take the same DEFAULT LEVEL output adjustment (See SETTINGS
MENU, OUTPUT LEVEL). During the PLAY mode, the output level can be adjusted either by the
UP & DOWN ARROW keys (9 & 11) or the + and -keys (8 & 7).
11.2 INPUT LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
During STOP or RECORD, the input level can be adjusted by pressing the + (8) or - (7) keys to
increase or decrease the input sensitivity. Once one of these keys is pressed, an additional bar-graph
on the right side of the display appears, indicating IN, corresponding to the current setting. 74dB
corresponds to maximum input gain, 133dB corresponds to minimum input gain and OFF
corresponds to muting of the input signal. If the input sensitivity is adjusted for 74dB, it means that if
the input signal at 74dB SPL will be recorded at a 0dB level.
LEVEL ADJUSTMENT IN THE STEREO MODE
When in the sub menus the INPUT TYPE is set to STEREO, the left
and right channel can be adjusted separately. Holding the left arrow key
(10) and adjusting the input sensitivity will only adjust the left channel.
Holding the right arrow key (12) and adjusting the input sensitivity will
only adjust the right channel. When the input sensitivity between the 2
channels is not identical, the display will automatically show both input
sensitivity levels.
As shown on the picture, the red indications correspond to the left channel; the blue indications
correspond to the right channel. If no left or right arrow is pressed during the input sensitivity
adjustment, both channels will be adjusted simultaneously and keep the same delta until one of the
channels is reaching max. or min. level.

11.3 THRESHOLD ADJUSTMENT
If ALC (Automatic Level Control) is ON and the ALC THRESHOLD is set to USING +/- KEYS
(see SETTINGS MENU, ALC THRESHOLD), the threshold during RECORD or STOP can be
adjusted by pressing the + or - keys (8 or 7). Once one of these keys is pressed, an additional bar-
graph on the right side of the display, indicating THR appears, showing the current position of the
adjustment. 74dB corresponds to maximum threshold level, 104dB corresponds to minimum
threshold level.
The THRESHOLD adjustment permits selection of the size of the compression zone. It is the lower
limit setting of the zone that will be automatically amplified during a silent period. The ALC works in a
range of 42dB (from 74dB to 116dB). If the THRESHOLD is set to 104dB, signals of 104dB and
higher (max. 116dB) will be recorded at 0dB level (between 2dB and 6dB for a stable signal). A
signal of 90dB will be recorded at 14dB (104dB 90dB).
11.4 WHAT IS DBSPL
The term dB SPL is the unit used to indicate the power of
ambient sound. dB is the abbreviation of decibels (ten bels),
which is the logarithmic ratio of a signal versus a reference level. "SPL" indicates the reference level
and stands for "Sound Pressure Level". The reference level is an air pressure of 20 micropascal
(0.00002 Pa = 0 dB SPL).
Some indicative values:
30-40 dB SPL: ambient room noise / whispering
50-70 dB SPL: normal conversation
80-90 dB SPL: feature film soundtrack in a theatre
90-110 dB SPL: busy bar with live music (Swiss legal max is 110 dB in a public arena)
110-120 dB SPL: heavy rock concert
130-140 dB SPL: Threshold of pain for the human ear
If the gain of the microphone is correctly set, the ARES-P II
+
could be used as a sonometer. The value
indicated by the modulometer of the ARES-P II
+
is the peak value (dB SPL
peak
). The peak value is
typically 10 dB higher than the RMS (Root Mean Square) value.
Examples:
Input attenuation set to 90dB, modulometer shows 0dB, this means that the sound has a pressure
level of 90dB SPL
peak
80 dB SPL.
Input attenuation set to 74dB, modulometer shows 12dB, this means that the sound has pressure
level of (74 12) 62dB SPL
peak
52dB SPL
Finally, if you know that you are going to make a recording of a sound level of 90 dB SPL (100 dB
SPL
peak
) then you can pre-adjust your machine by setting the level pot to the 100 db position and in
this way, your recording will not overload and you will record at about 0 dB on the modulometer.

By using the UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT ARROW keys (9, 11, 10, 12), once DIRECTORY has
been selected, it becomes possible to scroll vertically and horizontally to view all the recorded indexes
and their specifications.
If the marker has a shape, it means that the index sampling frequency is the same as the current
settings of the machine. When in this case, the PLAY key (5) is pressed, the playback starts
immediately. If the STOP (4) key is not pressed at the end of the playback of this selected index, the
playback continuous on the next index that has the same sampling frequency as the previous selected
index.
If the marker has a > shape, it means that the index sampling frequency is different from the current
settings of the machine. When in this case the PLAY key (5) is pressed, the default sampling
frequency of the machine will be momentary changed to the new selected sampling frequency and the
playback starts. If the STOP (4) key is not pressed at the end of the playback of this selected index,
the playback continuous on the next index that has the same sampling frequency as the previous
selected index. In this case, once the STOP (4) key is pressed or the playback of the last found index
with the same sampling frequency is ended, the machine will after a moment return to his default
sampling frequency setting.
During the period that the DIRECTORY is on the display, all function keys PLAY, STOP, FWD
and RWD (3,4,5 &6) are active.

14.1.4 EDIT INDEX.
The editing option enables the cleaningup of an index that contains
periods of silence or noise and non-useful sound. Once the editing is
completed, the index will be saved as a new index. In the directory such
edits will be marked with a scissors icon.
To edit an index, first select the index to be edited from the DIRECTORY, press the CENTER key
(13), select EDIT INDEX and press the CENTER key (13) again.
Counter 1 indicates the play position inside the edited
index.
Counter 2 indicates the full length of the edited index.
Counter 3 indicates the reel play position from the start
of the original index.
Counter 4 indicates only the position of each cut from the
original index.
In this example, index 009 is selected and is shown as a tape. All edit commands are executed as
shown in the picture by the LEFT (10), RIGHT (12), UP (9), DOWN (11) and CENTER (13)
keys.
In addition, in the edit mode, the standard keys REWIND (3), STOP (4), PLAY (5) and
FORWARD (6) act in the same way as for the standard play mode. The REWIND (3) as well as the
FORWARD (6) key permits to skip from one cut position to another.
If markers were already present on the index, they will be shown as cut positions on the tape.
PLACING CUTS
Example: Index 009 played back
for 2 seconds and a first cut
position was made.
This can be made in 2 different ways. The first possibility is to drop them on the fly. Push the PLAY
key (5) and press the CENTER key (13) every time a cut position must be set.
The second possibility is to press and hold the RIGHT key (12). The machine goes in play mode until
the key is released. If the LEFT key (10) is pressed and hold, the machine goes in play reverse.
Once the key released, press the CENTER key (13) to show a cut position.
DELETING A CUT POSITION
Example: A second cut position was set at 3 seconds
DELETE CUT appears on the screen.
If a cut position needs to be removed, it can be done in 2 ways. The first is to use the skip function
with the REWIND (12) or FORWARD (10) key until the cut position is found and press the
DELETE CUT key. The second one is by using the LEFT (10) or RIGHT (12) key kept pressed to

approach the cut line to the play head followed by a step by step approach until the counter 4
indicates the position. Once the positioning is reached, press the DOWN key (11) to delete the cut.
DELETING A SEGMENT
Example: Index 009 was rewound for 1 second. The play position sits
between the start position and the first cut position. DELETE
SEGMENT appears on the screen
When pressing the DOWN key (11), the segment from the beginning until the 2 seconds point will be
deleted.
UNDO A CUT OUT
Example: The segment from the beginning until 2 seconds is cut out.
UNDO CUT OUT appears on the screen.
If a wrong segment was cut out, it can be re-inserted by positioning the tape so that the play position
is on top of the cut position. This can be done in 2 ways. The first is to use the skip function with the
REWIND (3) or FORWARD (6) key until the cut position is found. The second is by using the
LEFT (10) or RIGHT (12) key kept pressed to approach the cut line to the play head followed by a
step by step approach until the counter 4 indicates the position. Once the positioning is reached, press
the DOWN key (11) to undo the cut out.
TRIMMING CUTS
Example: The first cut position is placed below the play position
indicator.
LISTEN LOOP/TRIM appears on the screen
Once the first cut position is made and the playback position sits on that cut position, press the
CENTER key (13) once again and the editor starts a loop playback around the cut position. It starts
playing 1second before the cut position and continues to play 1 second after the cut position.
Example: The play starts from 1 second until 3 seconds

During the playback loop, the LEFT (10) or RIGHT (12) key permits
to select the left or right segment to be trimmed. This means that the
length of the selected left or right segment can be reduced.
Example: The left segment is selected.
SLIDE LEFT SEGMENT appears on the screen.
In this case, the playback loop starts 1 second before the cut position and ends at the cutting position.
The length of the left segment can now be reduced by pressing and hold the LEFT key (10) or step
by step by clicking the same key. In this case the audio will be reduced with a size between 50 and
100 ms. If the reduction was too great, it can be increased again back to the original length by
pressing the RIGHT key (12).
EXIT THE EDITOR
To exit the editor, press the UP
key (9).
The display permits to select SAVE (12), QUIT (11) or return to EDIT (10).
Pressing SAVE (12) shows the next displays
The saving started and it is still possible
to ABORT (10).
Once the right display appears, the new
file was created. The created index
number is always the highest existing
index number in the directory +1.
Note: If the directory is full (999 indexes) a warning will appear at the start of the editing.
If the remaining time on the card is shorter than the selected index
length, a new window will appear but without the SAVE possibility. It is
up to the user if he thinks that once the index is edited, the size will be
smaller than the remaining time. In this case the EDIT can be selected.
In this example, the full length of the original index is 1 minute 21
seconds, but only 1 minute and 4 seconds remaining time is left, so the final edit must be smaller than
this.
Maximum 100 cut positions can be entered on 1 index.
During editing the POWER key (1) is disabled. If during editing, the machine switches off due to low
battery voltage, the new index will not be saved. If during saving the edited index, the machine
switches off due to low battery voltage, the saving will be aborted.
During editing the AUTO POWER OFF function is also disabled as long as the index has not been
saved. In the case that the saving was aborted, the AUTO POWER OFF will stay disabled. In the
case the file was saved correctly, AUTO POWER OFF becomes enabled.

15 LOCKING THE SETTINGS.
By pressing a certain combination of keys when turning on the
machine, the settings can then be locked step-by-step. This to prevent,
the user changing the settings inadvertently or otherwise. To obtain the
combination code, contact your local NAGRA dealer.
Most of the sub-menus can be locked by pressing the STOP key or unlocked by pressing the PLAY
key. When the sub-menu has been locked, a closed padlock appears in front of the selected sub-
menu. When the sub-menu has been unlocked, the closed padlock disappears. To remove the
password, switch off and on again the machine.
16 LOCKING THE KEYPAD.
During record or playback the keyboard can be locked by pressing the left and right arrow keys (10 &

18 SOFTWARE UPDATE.
When opening the machine, a small black 6 pin connector becomes visible located just under the
flashcard. A special adapter NP-PCA is needed to connect the machine to the RS232 connector of
the PC or laptop.
When new software from NAGRA becomes available, it can be delivered by Email or it can be down-
loaded from the NAGRA web site. By using the PC software called PuserLoader the machine can
be updated with the new software version. This takes about 2 to 3 minutes.
