Advanced Ways to use
Using SRX Wave Expansion
Boards
The MX-200 is equipped with one “slot,” which accepts a
Roland SRX Series Wave Expansion Board. Installing a Wave
Expansion Board allows you to increase the number of MX-
200 tones you can use.
The Wave Expansion Board can be installed by removing the
top cover.
A wave board designed exclusively for use with the MX-200
comes installed in Slot B. Do not remove this board.
Removing this board will prevent the MX-200 from
functioning correctly.
■ 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.
• Do not touch any of the printed circuit pathways or
connection terminals.
• 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.
• Install only the specified board, and remove only the
specified screws.
• Be careful not to cut your hands on the opening for
installing the board.
