Getting Ready

Installing the Wave Expansion Board

Up to two Wave Expansion Boards (SR-JV80 series; sold separately) can be installed in EXP-D and E Slots in the XP-30. Wave Expansion Boards contain Wave data, as well as Patches and Rhythm Sets that use this Wave data, which can be called directly into the temporary area and played.

Cautions When Installing an Wave Expansion Board

To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be caused by static electricity, please carefully observe the following whenever you handle the board.

Before you touch the board, always first grasp a metal object (such as a water pipe), so you are sure that any static electricity you might have been carrying has been discharged.

When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges. Avoid touching any of the electronic components or connectors.

Save the bag in which the board was originally shipped, and put the board back into it whenever you need to store or transport it.

Use a Philips screwdriver that is suitable for the size of the screw (a number 2 screwdriver). If an unsuitable screwdriver is used, the head of the screw may be stripped.

To remove a screw, rotate the screwdriver

counter-clockwise. To tighten a screw, rotate

loosen

tighten

the screwdriver clockwise.

 

 

When installing Wave Expansion Boards, remove only the specified screws.

Be careful that the screws you remove do not drop into the interior of the XP-30.

Do not leave the bottom cover in a detached state. Be sure to reattach it after the Wave Expansion Boards have been installed.

Do not touch any of the printed circuit pathways or connection terminals.

Be careful not to cut your hand on the edge of the installation bay.

Never use excessive force when installing a circuit board. If it doesn’t fit properly on the first attempt, remove the board and try again.

When circuit board installation is complete, double-check your work.

To install an optional Wave Expansion Board (SR-JV80 series; sold separately), the unit’s bottom cover must be removed. There are two slots (EXP-D and E) into which a board can be installed. Slots EXP-D and E correspond to the group (XP-D and E) you need to select in order to use a Wave, Patch or Rhythm Set from the Wave Expansion Board.

When playing a Patch or Rhythm Set that use the Wave data from a Wave Expansion Board, the appropriate Wave Expansion Board must be installed in the XP-30 for the sound to play correctly.
