Connecting the CY-12R/C

1.Use the included cable to connect one of the CY- 12R/C’s output jacks (either one, but not both) to the TD-8's trigger input jack.

If the CY-12R/C is to be used as a crash cymbal, connect it to the BOW/EDGE output jack; if it is to be used as a ride cymbal, connect it to the BOW/BELL output jack.

2.Secure the cable with cable ties.

Secure the cables in place with the cable tie, while leaving some slack in the cables to ensure that they are not pulled by the movement of the cymbal units when struck.
