Backing Module BK-7m
NOTE
Use only the specified expression pedal (Roland EV-series,
sold separately) or pedal switch (Roland DP-series, BOSS
FS-5U). By connecting any other expression pedal or foot-
switch, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage the
unit.
■ FC-7 pedal unit
You can also connect an optional FC-7 MIDI Foot
Controller to the PEDAL FC-7 socket.
At first, the switches of this pedal board are assigned
Music Style control functions. You can, however,
assign other functions to these switches (page 65).
Attaching the BK-7m to a stand
By using the separately sold PDS-10, you can attach the
BK-7m to a stand as shown in the illustration below.
NOTE
Use only the screws (M5x12) supplied with the BK-7m to
attach the unit to the Roland PDS-10 stand (sold separately).
Other screws or other usages of the screw holes may damage
the BK-7m.
NOTE
Never insert the screws supplied with the BK-7m without
attaching the BK-7m to the PDS-10 stand.
NOTE
When using the PDS-10, extend the legs to their maximum
spread. Do not allow the overall height including the BK-7m to
exceed 1 meter.
The assembly (BK-7m and
PDS-10) should look as
shown to the right.
• See the PDS-10’s owner’s
manual for details about how
to attach the BK-7m to it.
•For this procedure, turn the
BK-7m upside-down, and
place a bunch of newspapers
or magazines under the four
corners or at both ends to
prevent damage to the but-
tons and controls.
Also, you should try to orient
the BK-7m so no buttons or
controls get damaged.
NOTE
When turning the BK-7m upside-down, handle with care
to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over.
