This manual describes the internal hardware of the Nord Electro 2 synthesizer, including the power‑supply unit, main board and panel board. It explains how to update the operating system and sampled sounds, return to factory settings, and run the built‑in test program for diagnosing hardware faults.
Detailed sections cover disassembly of the keyboard, rack and power‑supply units, configuration of the 61‑key, 73‑key and rack models using zero‑ohm resistors, common error codes, and procedures for checking LEDs, knobs, keys, pedal inputs and the DAC output.
