Appendix Installing Optional Hardware Installation Precautions Before installing the optional hardware, make sure you have a Phillips screwdriver and ample space to work. Available devices The following optional devices can be installed to the MOXF. FL512M/FL1024M (Flash memory expansion module) Installation locations MOXF6 WARNING • Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the instrument and connected peripherals, and unplug them from the power outlet. Installation or removal of any devices should be started ONLY after the instrument (and any optional hardware) returns to normal room temperature. Then remove all cables connecting the instrument 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 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 units. Bending or tampering with boards and connectors may lead to electric shock, fire, or equipment failures.

Touching leads or connectors with bare hands may cause finger cuts, and may also result in poor electrical contact or electrostatic damage. • Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge can damage the IC chips. Before you handle the optional units, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch unpainted metal parts or a ground wire on a device that is grounded. • Handle the optical units with care. Dropping or subjecting them to any kind of shock may cause damage or result in a malfunction. • 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. • Do not use any screws other than what are installed on the instrument. Use of incorrect screws can cause damage. 70 MOXF6/MOXF8 Owner's Manual
