Caution! Protection from Static Electricity
The K2600 and ROM options are sensitive to static electricity. You can seriously damage them if
there’s a “spark” between you and any of the circuit boards or option cards. It’s important that
you discharge all residual static electricity from your body before beginning the installation. You
should also work on surfaces that won’t generate static electricity—for example, don’t stand (or
put the K2600) on a rug or carpet.
1. Before handling any of the components you’re going to install, touch the outer casing of
the K2600 (or any conductive object). The casing of the 2600 is isolated from the circuitry,
so a spark between you and the casing will not damage anything.
2. Remove the option from its static-protective bag. Hold the option in one hand and then
firmly grasp the K2600 casing again with your other hand. Repeat this step for each option
that you install.
Installing the Daughter Board
If you’ve previously installed a ROM option in your K2600, the daughter board is already in
place. In this case, proceed to the next section,
Installing ROM Option Cards (Keyboard or Rack-
Mount Models)
.
If this is your first ROM option installation, follow the directions below for installing the
daughter board. There’s one subsection for installing in keyboard models, and another for
installing in rack-mount K2600s.
Daughter Board Installation for Keyboard Models
Warning:
The K2600 and ROM options are sensitive to static electricity. Before handling the
daughter board, please follow the instructions above for protection from static electricity.
