About the Touch Screen

The KR-7/5 makes use of a touch screen.

You can also remove the music stand, then place the display there so that it faces forward. For instructions on removing the music stand, refer to “Removing the Music Stand” (p. 19).

When using the KR-7 with a display placed on it, be sure to note the following precautions.

•Make sure the display sits stably on the KR-7 before use.

•Do not let the base of the display rest on any of the music stand’s moving parts. Keep the base of the display within one of the areas shown by the dotted lines in the illustration below.

Areas for placing the display

•If you are placing the display on top of the KR, we recommend using a liquid crystal display (LCD). If using a cathode ray tube (CRT) display, take extra care to ensure that the display rests stably on the instrument.

This lets you carry out a wide variety of actions just by touching the screen lightly.

NOTE

The touch screen is operated by touching it lightly with your finger. Pressing hard, or using a hard object can damage the touch screen. Be careful not to press too hard, and be sure to use only your fingers to operate the touch screen.

NOTE

The positioning of the touch screen may become displaced due to changes in the surrounding environment and over time. If this happens, follow the steps in “Calibrating the Touch Screen (Touch Screen)” (p. 156) to correct the pointer position.

NOTE

Do not place items on the touch screen.
