Use the following steps to install memory into the DJ-70 or DJ-70mkII:
NOTE: Always use proper anti-static precautions before handling SIMMs modules. If possible, use an
anti-static wrist strap for this procedure. If one is not available, make sure you touch a grounded
metallic case before handling the SIMMs modules.
1) Turn off the DJ-70/DJ-70mkII's power switch and unplug the power cord.
2) Remove the screws that hold the upper case to the chassis. There are eight Phillips head screws that
surround the base of the unit. Be sure to place the screws in a safe place, as you will need them to
reassemble the case.
3) Remove the screws that hold the cover. Be careful not to pull out the cables connected to the printed
circuits.
4) Open the case and detach the keyboard assembly that is mounted to the chassis. You should now be
able to see the two empty SIMMs slots. You can lean the cover against the rear of the instrument
without disconnecting the cables.
5) Hold the SIMMs modules by the edges, gently place them into the empty slots, and push them back
against the two plastic clips until they snap into place.
6) Reassemble the case and power up the DJ-70/DJ-70mkII. During the bootup procedure, the "Wave
Mem
ory Check" display should indicate the increase in available Sample time.
NOTE: On the DJ-70MKII, SIMMs socket #1 will except either 8 or 16Mb SIMMs whereas socket #2 will only
accept 16Mb SIMMs. Also, when you expand the DJ-70mkII's memory to 32Mb the original 2Mb that came
with the instrument are no longer used.

SCSI Sample Transfers with the DJ-70MkII
The DJ-70MkII is now compatible with the SCSI transfer function available in software programs such as,
Recycle!™, Transfer Station™, and Samplifier™. This function allows you to transfer Sample data using
the SCSI port. This section is meant to provide a few guidelines when performing SCSI Sample transfers.
Basic SCSI Rules
There are many variables involved in multiple SCSI device configurations. However, there are some
basic rules that need to be followed:
Each SCSI device in a daisy chain configuration should have its own SCSI ID number.
The first and last devices on your SCSI chain should be terminated. Termination can be provided either by an
external terminator or internally on some SCSI devices. All other devices in the SCSI chain should not be
terminated. Incorrect termination often causes the operating system on most Samplers and/or computers to
freeze.
At least one of the devices in a SCSI chain should provide termination power. There should be at least 5 volts
supplied to the SCSI line. Most devices, including the DJ-70MKII, do provide termination power.
Never connect or disconnect SCSI devices while they are powered on. You may damage the SCSI device(s)
by doing this.
Setting up for SCSI Transfers
The default SCSI ID setting on the DJ-70MKII is 7, which may conflict with your computer's self SCSI ID.
Use the following procedure to change the self SCSI ID on the DJ-70MKII:
1) Press SYSTEM so it is lit.
2) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight "SCSI" and press S1.
3) Use the VALUE DIAL to select the desired SCSI ID number.
4) Turn the DJ-70MKII's power off and then on again.
