These Installation Instructions are valid for both the 88-key PC1x and the 61-key PC161
models. For statements that apply equally to both models, the generic name, PC1, will be
used. Otherwise the specific model name, either PC1x or PC161, will be used.

Thank you for purchasing a PCR-2 ROM Expansion Kit for the
PC1. The PCR-2 for the PC1 provides an array of classic keyboard
sounds, and adds 128 programs and 32 setups to your PC1.

Please read all of the introductory information in this document
(through Tools and Materials Required for Installation) before
proceeding with the installation. Finally, go to Updating Software
on page 7 to update your PC1 software.

Contents of the Kit

In addition to this installation guide, your PCR-2 kit should contain
the following items:

• Expansion board (single inline memory module, or SIMM)

• CD containing updated PC1 software

• Keyboard overlay with ROM2 sound categories, cut to fit over

the Sound Select buttons on the PC1’s front panel

• User’s Guide describing new software features, as well as
information about programs and setups

Safety Precautions

To prevent risk of electrocution, make sure that the PC1 is
disconnected from its power supply before you begin
disassembling the instrument.

Contents of the Kit

Static electricity, even in small amounts, can cause damage to
electronic components (especially memory). Before disassembling
the instrument, touch a conductive metal surface to discharge any
static electricity that you may have built up.

Saving Your Data

You may be upgrading your PC1’s software as part of this
installation, which means that you’ll need to do a hard reset before
returning to normal operation. The hard reset initializes the PC1 so
that it can use the new sounds and programs. It also deletes all user­defined data (programs, setups, and effects) from the PC1’s
memory. If you don’t want to lose your user data when you install
this option, do a SysEx dump of all objects before you begin the
installation.
