KKS (KORG Component System)

This instrument is part of the KORG Komponent System. This versatile system keeps all of the sound generating circuitry, all of the external connectors and even the power supply together inside of the sound module (subsequently referred to as the module). In this way, the instrument may be played with the module section tilted up or lying flat. In addition, the module section may be completely removed and operated as an independent tone module, or used with other KKS products for further convenience.

Parts and their functions

1. Keyboard

The keyboard features 61 semi-weighted keys.

2. Ribbon controller

By touching or rubbing your finger on this ribbon you can control various program and effect parameters on the connected module.

3. Joystick

By moving the joystick up/down/left/right you can control various program and effect parameters on the connected module.

4. SW1/SW2

You can use these switches to control various program or effect parameters on the connected module, or to turn the joystick or ribbon controller's Lock function on/off.

5. TO MODULE connector

One end of the connecting cable (8) will plug into this jack, and the other end will plug into the module's TO KYBD port. When connected, you'll be able to use the keyboard assembly's keyboard, joystick, ribbon controller and switches to control the module.

6. Sound module retaining bar A (subsequently "retaining bar A")

This is used to lock the module to the keyboard assembly. Four screws (M3× 8) with it locks.

7. Sound module locking supports B (subsequently "locking supports B")

These supports lock the module to the keyboard assembly. They also support the module when it is used in the tilted position.

8. Connecting cable

This cable connects the keyboard assembly to the module.

Caution when adjusting the module

Please observe the following cautions in order to ensure safe and correct assembly and disassembly.

Perform the steps in the correct order, making sure that each part is oriented correctly.

Be careful not to pinch your hand while raising or lowering the module.

Be sure that the module is powered-off when you connect or disconnect the cable between the keyboard assembly and the module. If you connect or disconnect this cable while the power is on, the module may stop operating correctly.

Before you proceed, be sure to read and follow the "Safety precautions" found earlier in this manual.

Raising the module

1. Remove the two screws (M3 x 8) that fasten the module's rear panel to the keyboard assembly.

Don't lose these screws!

1. Grasp the handle affixed to the module's rear panel, and gently tilt the module up.

Don't tilt the module too far, since this will subject the keyboard assembly to excessive strain.

1. As shown in the illustration, fold in the tab portion of each locking support "B" that had been used to attach the module to the keyboard assembly in step 1.

1. Raise each of the locking supports "B" to the appropriate position as shown in the illustration below.

1. Slowly lower the module onto the locking supports "B," ensuring that the screw hole of each locking support "B" is aligned with the screw holes on the rear of the module. At this time, the protrusion of each locking support "B" will fit into a notch on the bottom of the module, helping to hold the module in place as you perform the next step.

2 Be careful not to pinch your hand between locking supports "B" and the module.

If you move the keyboard assembly or apply excessive force to the module before you've fastened the module in place with the screws, the module may fall down, causing injury.

Lowering the module

1. Remove the two screws that fasten the module's rear panel to the keyboard assembly. Then grasp the handle affixed to the module's rear panel, and lift the module up.

1. While supporting the module with one hand, fold in each of the locking supports "B", and fold out the tab portion that had been inside.

2 Be careful not to pinch your hand between locking supports "B" and the module.

1. Gently lower the module, and fasten the tab portion of each locking support "B" to the module's rear panel using the screws you removed in step 1.

2 Be careful not to pinch your hand between the module and keyboard assembly.

Removing the module

1. Remove the two screws that fasten the module's rear panel to the keyboard assembly.

Don't lose these screws!

1. While using one hand to raise the module, unplug the cable (the "L" shaped plug) that's connected to the TO KYBD connector on the bottom of the module, and gently lower the module.

1. Using your Philips (+) screwdriver, remove the four screws from retaining bar "A" that holds the module to the keyboard assembly.

Don't lose these screws!

1. Raise the module slightly, and then use both hands to lift it up, removing the module and retaining bar "A" from the keyboard assembly.

1. Re-attach the retaining bar "A" using the screws you removed in step 3. This will keep the screws and retaining bar "A" safe for future use.

Attaching the module

1. Make sure that locking supports "B" are in the position shown below, with the main supports folded in, and the tab portion folded out. Remove retaining bar "A" from the keyboard assembly.

1. Using both hands, lift the module and gently place it on the keyboard assembly as shown below.

Be careful not to pinch your hand between the module and keyboard assembly.

1. Making sure that retaining bar "A" is oriented correctly as shown below, lay it gently over the module.

Align the screw holes of the keyboard assembly with the screw holes of retaining bar "A," and lightly fasten the four screws using only your fingers. Then use your Philips (+) screwdriver to firmly tighten all four screws.

Don't tighten the screws by force if they are misaligned. Doing so may damage the screws.

1. While using one hand to raise the module, connect the included cable. Connect the "L" shaped plug of the cable to the module's TO KYBD connector, and connect the straight plug to the TO MODULE connector of the keyboard assembly.

The included cable is only for the purpose of connecting the TO KYBD connector with the TO MODULE connector. Do not connect it to any other connector.

1. Raise the tab portion of the locking supports "B" to the position shown in the illustration below, and fasten the module to the keyboard assembly using the two screws you removed in step 1 of "Removing the module."
