Using Your PSR-2100/1100 with Other Devices 3 Playing the sounds of the PSR-2100/1100 through an external audio system, and recording the sounds to an external recorder (AUX OUT/ OUTPUT jacks) You can connect the PSR-2100/1100 to a wide range of audio equipment by using the AUX OUT and OUTPUT jacks. Connect as shown in the illustrations below using standard audio cables. 4 Using the Pedal (footswitch) or Foot Controller (FOOT PEDAL 1/2 jack) By connecting a Foot Switch (the FC4 or FC5) to one of the FOOT PEDAL jacks, you can replicate the function of some panel buttons, doing things like starting and stopping accompaniment. By connecting an optional Foot Controller (such as the FC7) to the FOOT PEDAL 2 jack, you can control any one of a variety of important functions with your foot - such as dynamically adjusting the volume as you play (page 142). Use audio cables and adaptor plugs with no resistance. The polarity of the foot switch (normal or reverse) can also be changed (page 142). CAUTION When the PSR-2100/1100 AUX OUT and OUTPUT jacks are connected to an external audio system, first turn on the power to the PSR-2100/1100, then to the external audio system. Reverse this order when you turn the power off.
