Ë Basic Hook-Up
All connections are found on the Accessory Panel on the back of the SKX.
A.C. Power
Your Hammond SKX is shipped from the factory set for 120 V.A.C. power. To connect the SKX keyboard to A.C.
power:
1. Locate the A.C. Power Cord and A.C. Power Adapter that came with your SKX.
2. Plug the A.C. Power Cord into the Adapter.
3. Plug the female end of the Adapter into the receptacle on the SKX marked, “AC IN.”
4. Secure the cord through the strain-relief next to the AC IN socket to prevent the A.C. adapter from
accidentally being unplugged from the instrument.
5. Plug the 3-pronged Power Cord into an A.C. power outlet.
Audio Connections
You can either:
1. Connect the SKX to an amplifier, or;
2. Connect the SKX to a Leslie Speaker cabinet.
Connecting to an Amplifier
1. Use two audio cables with

2. Connect one end of each of the audio cables to the audio output connectors (marked LINE OUT) on
the Accessory Panel.
3. Connect the other ends of each cable to the female

If your amplifier has only a single (1) female

audio input connector of your amplifier.
NOTE: If you wish to use the L/MONO output only, you should set the Audio Mode of your instrument
to MONO. This is covered in the SPECIAL UTILITY FEATURES section.
Connecting a Leslie Speaker
The 11-pin Leslie socket on your SKX allows you to plug directly into any Leslie speaker having an 11-pin interface.
If you wish to use a Leslie Speaker with your SKX, the Leslie Speaker should be connected before turning the power
"ON." To do this:
1. Locate an 11-pin Leslie Connector Cable.
2. Plug one end of the Connector Cable into the receptacle on the Leslie Speaker.
3. Plug the other end of the Connector Cable into the 11-pin Leslie socket found on the Accessory Panel
of the SKX.
Both the Leslie connections are "keyed,” that is, each connection contains a notch which insures that the pins
properly match up.
