USB MIDI information
If the instrument’s MIDI IN/OUT jacks and USB MIDI port are
both connected simultaneously, the USB MIDI port will be
given priority.
Ensure that the instrument is turned off before attempting
to connect the USB MIDI cable.
When connecting the instrument to a computer using
the USB MIDI port, there may be a short delay before
communications begin.
If the instrument is connected to a computer via a USB
hub and USB MIDI communication becomes unreliable/
unstable, please connect the USB MIDI cable directly to the
one of the computer’s USB ports.
Disconnecting the USB MIDI cable suddenly, or turning
the instrument on/off while using USB MIDI may cause
computer instability in the following situations:
- while installing the USB MIDI driver
- while starting up the computer
- while MIDI applications are performing tasks
- while the computer is in energy saver mode
If there are any further problems experienced with USB MIDI
communication while the instrument is connected, please
double-check all connections and relevant MIDI settings in
the computer’s operating system.
The USB MIDI conversion board TID10000934 utilised by the CA93/CA63 digital
piano is approved to show the USB logo. This USB logo can be used only for
products approved by the USB-IF (USB Implements Forum Inc.) test.
