INSTALLING THE OPTIONAL FLASH MEMORY EXPANSION MODULE

Installing an optional fl ash memory expansion module to the Tyros4 allows you to import Wave fi les on a USB storage device or hard
disk drive, letting you create your own original Voices, Normal Voices and Drum Voices. (For informatio on creating original Voices, re-
fer to the Reference Manual on the website.) This section explains how to install an expansion module to the Tyros4.
WARNING
• Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the Tyros4 and connected 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 connected while working can result in electric shock. Leaving other cables connected 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.
• 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 fi re 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, fi re, or equipment failures.
CAUTION
• Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit board. Touching these parts may result in a faulty contact.
• Be careful not to misplace any of the screws since all of them are used.
• Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge 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.
