User manual KURZWEIL K2661 ROM OPTIONS INSTALLATION GUIDE

[. . . ] The easiest way to do this is to make an "Everything" backup; this stores the entire contents of the K2661's RAM to a single file. You can then reinstall everything in one operation, without having to keep track of individual objects. Once you begin the installation, you can't go back and do the backup. So if you want to save your RAM objects, do it before you begin the option installation. Making an "Everything" Backup 1. [. . . ] It should be relatively easy to press the card into place. If the card doesn't pop into place easily, check the connectors on the mother board to make sure there aren't any bent pins. 3 Installing Kurzweil K2661 ROM Options Installing ROM Option Cards 8. Replace the access panel and loosely install the screws, starting with those closest to the hinge (back) of the access panel. When the screws are loosely in place, tighten them all, then turn the K2661 right side up. This completes the "hardware" portion of the installation. The next part of the installation is to run the ROM diagnostic tests, then install the object files, as described in the following section. 4 Installing Kurzweil K2661 ROM Options Installing Object Files Installing Object Files Object files organize raw samples and other data into the programs that you use during normal operations. There's a file containing "base objects": all the standard factory program information. There's also a separate object file for each option that you've installed. You'll need to reinstall the base objects first, then install the object file for each of the options installed in your K2661. For all the factory programs (both the standard factory programs numbered from 1 to 199 and the factory programs for the options) to be available, you must reinstall the base objects, followed by the objects for all of your options. How to Interpret the Filenames If you look at the table at the end of this document, you'll see lists of filenames that look something like this: OBJEP101. K26 The name of each object file has four parts: · · · · Prefix: identifies the type of the file. In our example above, OBJ identifies the file as an object file for the K2661. Operating system files have the prefix 2661S. Category: identifies what kind of object file it is. The example at the top of this section indicates a Vintage Electric Pianos objects file. Version: three digits that indicate the version of the object file. Extension: three characters following a dot, and identifying the file type to the K2661. Object files (including those containing programs, songs--all the objects you can save with the K2661) have the extension K26. Operating system files have the extension KOS. Throughout this document, we use placeholders to represent the version numbers in filenames. Instead of using specific version numbers, we use nnn to represent any version of a file--as expressed in the description of filename prefixes, above. Organizing the Object Files The table beginning on page 8 lists all the possible combinations of options, and the corresponding object files to install for each combination of options. To determine which files you need to install, go to the table and look in the "Option name" (first) column. Find the entry that matches the options that you now have in your instrument (that is, after installing any new options). Then look in the second column to find the object files that you'll need to install. [. . . ] These are the files contained in the flash directory: 2661Snnn. KOS K61Vnnn. K26 OBJKLnnn. K26 OBJEPnnn. K26 OBJSDnnn. K26 K2661 Operating System "Base ROM" objects. Contains ROM1 (Orchestral), ROM2 (Contemporary), and GM objects as well. Install only if you have sampling option. Install only if you have ROM3. Highlight a filename, then press the Select button. [. . . ]
