	For improved reliability, protect each footswitch input used with Zener diode 4V7/250mW or suppressor diode 4V7 (cathode ring of zener to input, anode to ground). Inputs '''may be destroyed''' by voltage spikes from static discharge on cable.		These inputs are always active, even if MIDI CC set contains #64 or #66 CCs which prevent normal use of MIDI sustain/sostenuto events. For improved reliability, protect each footswitch input used with Zener diode 4V7/250mW or suppressor diode 4V7 (cathode ring of zener to input, anode to ground). Inputs '''may be destroyed''' by voltage spikes from static discharge on cable.

	For lowest key-to-audio latency we recommend direct keyboard connection via scan board (different versions available). Scan boards are activated by update from SD card (appropriate for your application) or ''HX3 Manager''. Upload driver ''scanmidi.dat'', ''scanfatr.dat'' resp. ''scansr61.dat'' to HX3.5 using ''Updater'' window. All Scan drivers will support MIDI input/output too, but for pure MIDI remote we recommend MIDI input driver ''scanmidi.dat''. New HX3.5 boards come with ''scanmidi.dat'' installed.		For lowest key-to-audio latency we recommend direct keyboard connection via scan board (different versions available).

	* Is an appropiate Scan Driver installed? Should be either MIDI Input (HX3 mk5 MIDI Expander or Drawbar Expander FW) or FatarScan driver (other firmwares). You may replace the Scan Driver by using the Updater in HX3.5 Manager. Use Update menu and select "Scan Driver file".
