Installing An Optional Hard Disk - Yamaha Tyros2 Owner's Manual

Installing an Optional Hard Disk

By installing an optional hard disk drive to the Tyros2, you can vastly expand the data storage capacity—letting you
use the Hard Disk Recorder function or create a large library of your important data. The hard disk used must be a
2.5-inch IDE-compatible; however, not all such drives may be installable.
WARNING
• Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the Tyros2 and con-
nected peripherals, and unplug them from the power outlet. Then remove
all cables connecting the Tyros2 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 installa-
tion (this can be prevented by keeping the optional units and cover away
from the instrument while attaching). If this does happen, be sure to
remove the screw(s) from inside the unit 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 units 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 and
connectors on optional hard disk units. Bending or tampering with
boards and connectors may lead to electric shock, fire, or equipment
failures.
Before following the steps below, make sure you have an appropriate hard disk drive, Phillips screwdriver
and the included four screws.
1
Turn the Tyros2's power off, and disconnect the AC power cord. Also, make sure to
disconnect the keyboard from any other external devices.
2
Turn the Tyros2 face down on a blanket or some soft surface, giving you direct access
to the bottom of the instrument.
Cover
3
Remove the four screws from the cover.
4
Remove the screw from the hard disk cover inside.
CAUTION
• It is recommended that you wear gloves to protect your hands from
metallic projections on optional units and other components. Touching
leads or connectors with bare hands may cause finger cuts, and may
also result in poor electrical contact or electrostatic damage.
• Handle the optional hard disk unit with care. Dropping or subjecting
them to any kind of shock may cause damage or result in a malfunction.
• Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge can damage
the IC chips on the hard disk or the instrument. Before you handle the
optional hard disk, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch the
metal parts other than the painted area or a ground wire on the devices
that are grounded.
• 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.
• Do not use any screws other than what are installed on the instrument
and included.
NOTE
• Hard disk drives thicker than 12.7 mm cannot be installed to the Tyros2.
• For information on the hard disk recommendations, ask your nearest Yamaha
representative or an authorized distributor listed at the end of this owner's
manual. Install a hard disk at your own risk. Yamaha will not be held responsi-
ble for any damage or injury resulting from improper installation or the use of
a hard disk other than one of the types recommended by Yamaha.
