.

Use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the parameters (below), then set the ON/OFF status, etc. by using the
[1 ]–[8 ] buttons.

1 Local Control

Turns the Local Control for each part on or off. When Local Control is set to “ON,” the keyboard of the
instrument controls its own (local) internal tone generator, allowing the internal Voices to be played directly
from the keyboard. If you set Local to “OFF,” the keyboard and controllers are internally disconnected from
the instrument’s tone generator section so that no sound is output when you play the keyboard or use the
controllers. For example, this allows you to use an external MIDI sequencer to play the instrument’s internal
Voices, and use the instrument keyboard to record notes to the external sequencer and/or play an external
tone generator.

2 Clock setting, etc.

CLOCK

Determines whether the instrument is controlled by its own internal clock or a MIDI clock signal received
from an external device. INTERNAL is the normal Clock setting when the instrument is being used alone
or as a master keyboard to control external devices. If you are using the instrument with an external
sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want to synchronize it to that device, set this
parameter to the appropriate setting: MIDI, USB 1, or USB 2. In this case, make sure that the external
device is connected properly (e.g., to the instrument’s MIDI IN terminal), and that it is properly
transmitting a MIDI clock signal.

NOTE

When CLOCK is set to a value other than INTERNAL, the tempo is indicated as “Ext.” on the Main display. This means that playback of this instrument is
controlled only from an external MIDI device or computer. In this condition, Styles, Songs, Multi Pads or the Metronome cannot be played back even if
you carry out the start operation.

NOTE

When a USB wireless LAN adaptor is connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal, the “WIRELESS LAN” parameter can also be selected.

TRANSMIT CLOCK

Turns MIDI clock (F8) transmission on or off. When set to OFF, no MIDI clock or Start/Stop data is
transmitted even if a Song or Style is played back.

RECEIVE TRANSPOSE

Determines whether or not the instrument’s transpose setting is applied to the note events received by the
instrument via MIDI.

START/STOP

Determines whether incoming FA (start) and FC (stop) messages affect Song or Style playback.

3 MESSAGE SW (Message Switch)

SYS/EX.

The “Tx” setting turns MIDI transmission of MIDI System Exclusive messages on or off. The “Rx” setting
turns MIDI reception and recognition of MIDI System Exclusive messages generated by external
equipment on or off.
