Solder the other end to the hole in the'AR-313 Interface
board "A" labelled "Keyboard Voice" on .the layout drawing.
( ) 4. Solder another 48" wire to the buss wire labelled "Keyboard
Gate Switches".
( ) 5 Solder the 10" wire to the left most lug on the keyboard,
labelled "Keyboard Low". Solder the other end to the hole
in board "A" labelled "Keyboard Lo".
( ) 6 Solder the next 48" wire to the next to last lug on the
right side of the keyboard, labelled "Keyboard High".
Solder the other end to the hole in board "A" labelled
"Keyboard Hi".
II WIRING OF 30ARD "B" TO THE KEYBOARD.
This consists of connecting 61 wires from the keyboard lugs^
marked "Kl", through "K61" , to the same points on Board B .
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO FOLLOW ANY ORDER. That is, K2 on Board
"B" may go to K37, or any other "K" number on the keyboard.
However, it is recommended that you follow this wiring
procedure to avoid the wires interfering with the keyboard
action. NOTE: Use thin insulated wire; No. 22 or smaller,
a n d p r e f e r a b l y s o l i d . ,
( ) 1. Cut ten pieces of wire, each 29" long, and strip 1/4 of
insulation from each end.
( ) 2 Solder one of these wires to the lug marked Kl on the
keyboard (see keyboard drawing) NOTE: The rst lug is not
Kl!
3. Solder the other wires to the next nine lugs (K2 thru K10)

( ) 6. Find the wire furthest in from the end of the bundle,
' and cut off all the others to be even with it.
( ) 7. Cut ten new-wires,, each 36'" long, and strip the ends.
( ) 3. "older these to the next ten lugs (Kll thru K20).
( ).9. Keeping this bundle separate, pull to the left and
twist, like the first 10.
( )10. Cut off the other ends to be even, as before.
( )11. Cut ten new wires, each 43" long, and repeat for the
lugs K21 thru K3 0. You should now have three bundles.
MOTE: They- should come to different lengths when pulled
to the left.
( )12. Cut ten more wires, each 50" long, and repeat for K31
thru K40.
( )13. Cut ten more wires, each 57" long, and repeat for K41
thru K50.
( )14. Cut eleven nally, each 64" long, and repeat for K51
thru K61.Notice the lug between K60 and 63 ; do njjt
j mistake this for K61?
( 515. You should now Have"six neat bundles of wire.Thay should h&
held together about every 6" with tape, lacing, or cable
ties if possible, and pushed down into theucorner of
the keyboard case. NOW, WIRE TO BOARD "B".
( )16. Solder the ends of the longest bundle of wires (the lafct
one wired to the keyboard) to Board "B", in the holes
labelled K51 thru ?»G1 (see Board "B" assembly drawing) .
NOTE: Run wires through from the component side of :-v.e
board."B".
( )17. Solder the next longest bundle into holes for K41 thru
K50.
( )18. Repeat for K31 thru K40.
( )19. Repeat for K21 thru K30.
( )20. Repeat for Kll thru K20.
( )21. Repeat for Kl thru K10.
