Using an SD Memory Card

E-35

Playback of SMF format data and song data converted
using SMF conversion software to CASIO CM2 format.

IMPORTANT!

• Note the following important precautions whenever

playing back a data file you copied to a memory card with
a computer.
To perform the procedure below, you must have an SD
memory card to which an SMF data file has been copied
from a computer. Insert an SD memory card that has
been formatted on the digital piano into the memory card
slot of your computer, and copy the data file you want to
play back from your computer into the memory card
folder named “MUSICDAT”. Note that you will not be able
to play back the data on the digital piano if it is not
located inside the “MUSICDAT” folder. If you create a
sub-folder inside of the “MUSICDAT” folder, the digital
piano will not be able to load any data file inside the sub-
folder.

• After you select a song data, it can take a number of

seconds for the song data to be loaded. While the data is
being loaded, the song number will flash on the display,
and the keyboard keys and button operations will be
disabled. If you are playing something on the keyboard,
the following operation will cause output to stop.

1.

Press the CARD button.

The CARD button lamp will light and a file number
will appear on the display.

2.

Use the

/NO and

/YES buttons to

display the song number of the song you
want to play.

3.

Press the PLAY/STOP button.

4.

Press the PLAY/STOP button again to stop
playback.

5.

After you are finished using the SD memory
card, press the CARD button so its lamp
turns off.

You can change tempo, volume, and pre-count settings
for playback. See “Other Settings” on page E-25 for more
