INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, continued
Note: If you want to retain the MIDI/CV function, you will need to keep the
S-TRIG out jack intact. Either remount the S-TRIG jack, or mount the
MIDI jacks somewhere other than the previously mentioned location.
4) Remove the digital board from the Source. Most of the connectors are
different sizes and therefore should be easy to re-assemble. However,
there are always exceptions! The two ribbon cables that connect the
analog board can easily be mixed up. The long one connects to S33, or
the dip socket further from the battery. The short cable connects to S32,
or the one closest to the battery.
5)Remove the two RAM chips (hopefully socketed in your instrument)
and the program ROM.
6) Cut the bottom trace connecting pins 2 and 4 of U15. If you have a
different layout than is shown on the following pages, all you have to do is
isolate pin 4. If you can't see the traces well enough to isolate the pin, you
can do this by cutting the pin on the top side close to the board, bending
the stub up and soldering to it.
7) Lay the digital board on something flat but not too hard. A piece of
plywood or particle board works well; it is hard enough to support the
digital board while installing the SMK, yet the wood gives enough so it
won't harm the digital board. You will be exerting a lot of pressure on the
digital board and it must be supported properly as not to flex excessively.
(If you don't have the wood, try a towel on the kitchen counter.) Plug the
MIDI board in the RAM sockets. Be careful not to bend the pins even
though they are relatively strong. The sockets will be very tight, but this
will hold the board securely in place. You may feel like the board is going
to crack. Just press firmly directly over the pins. This is the only means of
support for the board, so this must be secure. If you are not confident the
SMK is firmly in place, try pulling it out of the sockets and see what type
of force was required to actually remove it. If it was "a lot" then you
installed it correctly. Go ahead and re-seat the SMK in the sockets like
you did the first time.
(If you find the above procedure to not work properly, you may optionally
install the included sockets. You will have to remove the standard RAM
sockets before installing the deeper ones Encore includes in the kit.)
8) Solder the 18 wires to the places shown on the following pages. [I
have included the order I found easiest. The last three wires
{A12/A11/A10} are soldered to the bottom of the board.]
