CTL (CONTROL) PEDAL Jack
You can connect optional expression pedals (DP-8, etc.) to these
jacks. By assigning a desired function to a pedal, you can use it to
select or modify sound or perform various other control. You can
also connect optional pedal switches (DP series etc.) to sustain
sound. → (Quick Start; p. 26)
HOLD PEDAL Jack
An optional pedal switch (DP series etc.) can be connected to this
jack for use as a hold pedal. → (Quick Start; p. 26)
This can also be set so it supports the use of half-pedaling
techniques. So, after connecting an optional expression pedal (DP-8,
etc.), you can employ pedal work to achieve even finer control in
performances in which piano tones are used. → (p. 33)

The Fantom-S features both optical and coaxial digital out
connectors (conforming to S/P DIF).
These connectors output a digital audio signal (stereo). The output
signal is identical to the signal that is output from the OUTPUT A
(MIX) jacks.
* S/P DIF is a digital interface format used for consumer digital audio
devices.
