Kurzweil K2500 Version 4.04 Operating System Information

This operating system is for a K2500 which has the KDFX option installed.

This version is a maintenance release. No new features have been added since v4.00.

New preset Object files (v4.01) were released at the same time as the 4.04 OS. You should download those and install them as well.

The complete procedure for installing the operating system is included in Chapter 2 of the 
K2500 Performance Guide. For your convenience, here's a summary of the procedure:

1. Copy the file K25V404.KOS onto a DOS formatted floppy.

2. Start the K2500

3. Press and release the Exit key while the "Please wait..." message is displayed. This 
brings up the K2500 Boot Loader.

4. Insert the operating system floppy, then use "Install System" from the K2500 Boot 
Loader to install the new operating system.

5. As noted above, new Objects files are also available for installation. The Read Me files for the Objects contains info on installing them.

6. When the installation is finished, choose "Run System" from the Boot Loader. 

While you won't normally need to reinstall the operating system, you should still put the 
disk in a safe place, just in case you may need it again.

Note: you can also install these files from a DOS or Kurzweil formatted SCSI disk. When 
the display asks which device you want to install from, change the parameter to the 
appropriate SCSI ID.

We recommend performing a hard reset after installing and running the new system. 
Choose the Reset soft button from the Master page. (Save any RAM objects to disk before 
performing a reset.)
