Installing the Optional Flash Memory Expansion Module

Installing an optional flash memory expansion module to the Tyros4 allows you to import Wave files on a USB storage
device or hard disk drive, letting you create your own original Voices, Normal Voices and Drum Voices. (For information
on creating original Voices, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.) This section explains how to install an expan-
sion module to the Tyros4.
WARNING
• Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the Tyros4 and con-
nected peripherals, and unplug them from the power outlet. Installation or
removal of any devices should be started ONLY after the instrument (and the
optional hardware) returns to normal room temperature. Then remove all
cables connecting the Tyros4 to other devices. (Leaving the power cord con-
nected while working can result in electric shock. Leaving other cables con-
nected can interfere with work.)
• Be careful not to drop any screws inside the instrument during installation
(this can be prevented by keeping the optional unit and cover away from the
instrument while attaching). If this does happen, be sure to remove the
screw(s) from inside the instrument before turning the power on. Loose screws
inside the instrument can cause improper operation or serious damage. If you
are unable to retrieve a dropped screw, consult your Yamaha dealer for
advice.
• Install the optional unit carefully as described in the procedure below.
Improper installation can cause shorts which may result in irreparable damage
and pose a fire hazard.
• Do not disassemble, modify, or apply excessive force to board areas or the
connector on an optional module unit. Bending or tampering with the board
and connector may lead to electric shock, fire, or equipment failures.

CAUTION
• Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit
board. Touching these parts may result in a faulty con-
tact.
• Be careful not to misplace any of the screws since all of
them are used.
• Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity dis-
charge can damage the module or the instrument.
Before you handle the module, to reduce the possibility
of static electricity, touch some unpainted metal surface
or a ground wire on a device that is grounded.
• Do not use any screws other than what are installed on
the instrument.
• It is recommended that you wear gloves to protect your
hands from metallic projections on the optional unit and
other components. Touching leads or the connector with
bare hands may cause finger cuts, and may also result in
poor electrical contact or electrostatic damage.
• Handle the optical unit with care. Dropping or subjecting
it to any kind of shock may cause damage or result in a
malfunction.
