Installing a Wave Expansion Board
Two Wave Expansion Boards (SRX series; sold separately) can be 
installed in the XV-2020.
Waveform data, patches and rhythm sets are stored on the Wave 
Expansion Board, so you can increase the number of available 
sounds by installing the board in the XV-2020.
Installing a Wave Expansion Board increases the patches and drum 
sets for Parts, but the number of Parts doesn’t change.
The Wave Expansion Board can be installed by removing the top 
cover.
Cautions When Installing an 
Wave Expansion Board
• To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be 
caused by static electricity, please carefully observe the 
following whenever you handle the board.
➝ Before you touch the board, always first grasp a metal object 
(such as a water pipe), so you are sure that any static 
electricity you might have been carrying has been 
discharged.
➝ When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges. Avoid 
touching any of the electronic components or connectors.
➝ Save the bag in which the board was originally shipped, and 
put the board back into it whenever you need to store or 
transport it.
• Do not touch any of the printed circuit pathways or connection 
terminals.
• Never use excessive force when installing a circuit board. If it 
doesn’t fit properly on the first attempt, remove the board and 
try again.
• When circuit board installation is complete, double-check your 
work.
• Install only the specified board, and remove only the specified 
screws.
• Be careful not to cut your hands on the opening for installing 
the board.
