	As HX3.7 does no longer offer legacy analog and switch inputs, the '''HX3.7 LegacyBoard''' will be available to connect existing passive switch/button boards like Panel16 (2x8 = 16 inputs, two 10-pin headers), analog drawbar controls (2x12 = 24 inputs, two 16-pin headers) and a 6-way rotary vibrato switch (10-pin header). It provides the box headers of previous mainboards for up to 24 drawbars, 16 buttons/switches and vibrato rotary switch.<span style="color:red> The LegacyBoard '''is not needed''' for new installations using the MPX bus/connector (all DBX/PTX/ANX boards).</span> LegacyBoard '''PL1/PL5''' connect to HX3.7 '''PL31 PANEL I2C''' and '''PL32 ANLG MPX''' box headers as seen in picture. Route-through box headers ('''PL4/PL10''', right) are provided for both, allowing easy daisy-chaining to MenuPanel or additional input boards.

	Connection of analog and digital controls to HX3.7 LegacyBoard is made in the same way as for [[HX3.6_Installation_Manual#Internal_Analog_Inputs\|'''HX3.6 internal analog inputs''']] and [[HX3.6_Installation_Manual#Connecting_Digital_Inputs\|'''HX3.6 internal digital inputs''']]:

	* Connect old-style drawbars, old DB9/DB12/DB9 MPX drawbar boards or potentiometers to '''PL2 ANLG UPR''' and '''PL3 ANLG LWR''' of HX3.7 LegacyBoard
	* Connect old Panel16 or buttons/switches to '''PL7''' and '''PL8''' of HX3.7 LegacyBoard
	* Connect vibrato rotary switch to '''PL6''' of HX3.7 LegacyBoard
	* Insert jumper JP1 and JP2


	'''Please note:''' On HX3.7 LegacyBoard, the ''internal'' analog inputs '''PL2 ANLG UPR''' and '''PL3 ANLG LWR''' are emulated by ''external'' analog MPX inputs (starting at param #5024 in HX3 Editor). Analog input assignments #5000 to #5023 '''do not exist on HX3.7''', even with LegacyBoard connected. The parameters #5024 to #5047 are responsible instead.

	Optional '''PL9''' control output is available on OEM request (U13 and PL9 not populated on standard HX3.7 LegacyBoard). If U13 and PL9 are installed, '''remove jumper JP1 and JP2'''. This OEM Control Port provides the following signals on 7 outputs (high level = active):

New '''HX3.7 VibratoSwitch I2C''' board provides a 6-way rotary switch as well as an interface circuit for I2C bus on PL31. It is connected in the very same way as other button/switch interface boards (Preset16, Extend16, MenuPanel).

	This optional switch assembly with 3 positions (Slow/Stop/Fast) is used to control the internal rotary simulation or an external rotary cabinet as an alternative to Panel16 buttons or foot switches. It operates independently of the position of any foot switch that may be connected to the HX3 jack socket at the same time. It can be connected to any point on the I2C panel bus; the board occupies the (non-changeable) I2C address 41 hex. Requires HX3.6 or HX3.7 with firmware #7.050 or higher. In pictured orientation, lever to the left would set rotary to "fast", lever to the right would select "slow".
