and transmit MIDI messages (p. 129). Use MIDI cables (sold
separately) to make connections.

PEDAL jacks

CONTROL:

An optional expression pedal (such as the EV-5), pedal switch (the
optional DP-2 or DP-8), or foot switch (the optional BOSS FS-5U) can
be connected to this jack (p. 17).

HOLD:

An optional pedal switch (such as the DP-2 or DP-8) or foot switch
(the optional BOSS FS-5U) can be connected to this jack for use as a
hold pedal (p. 17).

If you are using DP-8, set the DP-8’s function switch to “Switch.”

These jacks output stereo (L/R) audio signals to your amp or mixer.

This is the jack for connecting headphones (sold separately) (p. 17).

Cord hook

To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit (should
the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid applying undue
stress to the DC IN jack, anchor the power cord using the cord hook,
as shown in the illustration.

G

DC IN jack

Connect the AC adaptor here (p. 17).

Be sure to use only the supplied AC adaptor.

H

POWER switch

This switch turns the power on/off (p. 18).

I

Ground terminal

927

In some cases, depending on the environment in which the unit is installed,
the surface of the panel may sometimes feel rough and grainy. This is due
to an infinitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless. However,
if you are concerned about this, connect the ground terminal (see figure)
with an external ground. When the unit is grounded, a slight hum may
occur, depending on the particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of
the connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

Unsuitable places for connection

• Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)
• Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)
• Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in

the event of lightning)
