is connected to the rear panel PEDAL HOLD jack, notes will be 
sustained (held) while you hold down the pedal even after you take 
your hands o the keyboard.
If an expression pedal or pedal switch (EV-5, DP series unit; sold

you can use the pedal to vary the volume or control a variety of 
functions.
