Hi guys!

Just letting you know that I've been collecting lots of service manuals for lots of Casios, as well as other brands too.

You can download them from my band's website:

http://www.warningwillrobinson.com.au/index_files/Professor.htm

At the LHS of the page, under the menus, are links to the manuals page. The manuals are free!

Check my band out while you're there. New album out soon (free download!!)

Cheers, Graham

Does anyone know where I can get the Casio DM100 service manual?? I can buy it in paper form but I'd rather have it in pdf...

Cheers, Graham

Dammit, i used to have it, but i think i must have lost it in a hard drive failure a while back. I'll check out a couple of backup CD's and post it if it turns up.

I wouldn't have paid for it, so i assume it much be freely downloadable out there somewhere.

[gmeredith]

That would be great if you could, thanks! I haven't been able to find anyone willing to sell me a pdf copy anywhere...everyone wants to print them and post them, which means where I live (Australia) it will be several weeks delay before the goodness flows

Hope you can find it! I have a LOT of mods I want to do which I can publish here for it - basically all of my SK8 mods I've done here will work on the top sampling keyboard, so I'll duplicate them. Then the bottom keyboard, which is an MT540 or 240 has a bunch of mods I've found from the Tablehooters site, plus add MIDI, program change, CC control of mods etc.

ALSO, I'm having trouble in the same way with the RZ-1 service manual - again, all paper copies, no pdfs out there.

Cheers, Graham

[Circuitbenders]

I think anyone that claims to have the RZ1 service manual is talking shit. I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist outside of Casio, if it exists at all. It would have escaped into the wild by now if it was real.

[gmeredith]

WD Greenhill have both the RZ1 and the DM100 service manual, but only in print form.

http://www.wdgreenhill.com/manu/casio_a.htm

I've gotten service manuals from them before, so if they say they have the RZ service manual, they do. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet and get it from them in paper form and scan it for everyone here  
Couldn't be as big as the FZ-1 service manual though - that bastard was over 100 pages to scan  

Cheers, Graham

[Circuitbenders]

Well it does say 'owners & service manuals' so i'd be willing to bet they have the owners manual. In fact i think i've been emailed before by someone who had mentioned that they had asked those people for the RZ service manual and they didn't have it. I guess it can't hurt to try though.

If you get it you'll have one of the holy grails of circuitbending! People will come from miles around just to bask in its glorious presence. 

[gmeredith]

I'll email and ask them...but if they don't, Transanalog claim to have it (again, only in paper copy):

Hey guys...guess what?? I have a little surprise arriving in the next few weeks for all you RZ fans....keep watching the skies (and also this post)!

In the meantime: - Crusty - any more luck with the DM100 manual??

Cheers, Graham

[Circuitbenders]

Unfortunately i don't seem to actually have the DM100 service manual anymore. As i say though, i wouldn't have paid for it so it must be out there somewhere or i would never have had it.

[gmeredith]

Thanks for looking! Never mind, I went and bought it after you couldn't find it - it's on its way in paper form. I'll scan it and put it up here for others.

Cheers, Graham

[gmeredith]

Just got the DM100 service manual - came in the mail yesterday. Paper - what a pain! The annoying thing was that the guy won't deal in pdf download manuals, claims he gets the original paper service manuals and sells them. Well then if that's the case, how come mine had some photocopy rederings of some pencil writing on it?
Who cares if they're the original copy or not??! So long as you can read them, why not scan them and sell them that way?? - saves in postage, paper, toner, time. And you only have to scan them once.

Don't get me started 

Anyhoo, I've put them up on my band's website:

http://www.warningwillrobinson.com.au/index_files/InstrumentManuals.htm

If you click on the "View all manuals here" heading up the top of the page it will take you to the whole goldmine of my manuals, you can find it there. Take note that there is also some schematic pages that are a part of it but separate to it - about 5 or 6 of them, in jpg format, so they also go with the main manual, make sure you get them, too.

Check out my band's music while you're there - it's free 

Cheers, Graham

Just found the service manual for the Casio CTK2080, and it tells you about yet another test mode that I have found. Just hold the 0, 1, 2 buttons on startup. The display will read 001: TESTMODE
Works on my WK500 too, they are all based on the same hardware

[iwillbeacircuitbender]

That is the 0, 1, and 2 number buttons BTW

[iwillbeacircuitbender]

Oh, and the LK series keyboards do not seem to have the test mode. Shame. Okay, so the WK500 test mode has the switch check, as well as the LCD and ROM check, SD card check, and so on. And also the ROM model number, which is MX809. And the ZPI sound source check, which is SG0001 through SG0005
