Aux In
The Aux In stereo RCA connectors allow you to mix an external sound source
(such as a CD player, MP3 player or computer output) with the piano's internal
sounds, for playback through the piano's built-in speakers or headphones outputs.
MIDI OUT Jack
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a world-standard communication interface which allows electronic musical instruments to communicate
with each other, by sending and receiving compatible note, program change
and other types of MIDI data.
This terminal transmits data from this instrument to other MIDI devices. The
transmitted data includes the note and touch velocity produced while playing
on the keyboard, as well as voice changes. Demo songs are not transmitted.
Using USB-MIDI
This piano allows the transfer of MIDI over USB. There is a specific
way in which the MIDI signals are routed for maximum flexibility.
In a standard Digital Piano, the built-in keyboard sends MIDI signals
to the internal sound bank as well as the 5-pin MIDI output. In this
digital piano, the keyboard not only sends MIDI signals to the internal
sound bank (just like normal) but also sends MIDI signals simultaneously to the
internal MIDI connection which hooks up inside the device to the Audio Interface.
It is the Audio Interface that is used to control the USB-MIDI.
USB TO HOST
USB Audio
The piano has USB Audio.
This means that you can plug in via a USB Cable to your Laptop, Tablet, iPad,
and SmartPhone and be able to hear you device's audio through the pianos
speaker system. This is very useful for example when you are recording your
piano with your laptop and want to listen back through the pianos speakers. Or
if you are using some of the instrument voices on the Garage Band app from
your iPad, now you can hear it through the pianos' sound delivery system
instead of just the iPad's speakers or headphones.

Sustain Pedal
The sustain pedal included with the piano will cause piano key sounds to slowly
decay as if they were being held down.
SUS TAIN
NOTE
Please make sure that the piano is turned off before connecting the pedal.
Otherwise, it may not be read by the piano correctly.
If you use different sustain pedal and you need to change the polarity for
proper operation, you will need to turn off the piano and then hold down
the foot pedal during power up.

Connect the included DC power adapter to the Power Supply Jack.
Please use only the provided power adapter.

Recording
The recording function features a two track recorder that lets you record what you
play on the keyboard and then play it back. Two tracks mean that you can
“overdub”one part on top of another, using a different voice if you like.
RECORD
PLAYTRACK
The recorder feature is a useful addition to any keyboard study program
since it lets you hear exactly how you sound from the listener's perspective.
It can also be just plain fun. This recorded information is nonvolatile and
therefore will not be lost when the power is turned off. The record function
records all settings exactly as you selected and performed them.

Tro ubleshooting Hints
When the instrument is turned on or off, a
Popping sound is temporarily produced.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced.
Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the
instrument may produce interference.
Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the
sound seems to cut off.
The Auto Accompaniment does not sound
properly.
No sound produced by the keyboard, but the
lights and screen work.
The sound of the voice changes from note to
note.
This is normal and indicates that the instrument
is receiving electrical power.
To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use
it further away from the instrument.
The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum
of 64 notes — including Dual voice, Split Voice,
auto accompaniment, song, and Metronome.
Notes exceeding this limit will not sound.
Make sure that the Auto Accomp Volume
Function is set to an appropriate level.
Is the Split Point set to an appropriate key for the
chords you are playing? Set the Split Point to an
appropriate position on the keyboard.
Is the chord indicator showing in the LCD
display? If it is not showing, press the CHORD
button so that it does show.
Check that the master volume control is not set
to minimum.
Check that nothing is plugged into the
headphone socket.
This is normal. The digital tone generation uses
multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument
across the range of the keyboard; The actual
sound of the voice may be slightly different
from note to note.
The volume is too soft.
The sound quality is poor.
The rhythm stops unexpectedly or will not play.
The recorded data of the song, etc. does not
play correctly.
The LCD display suddenly goes dark, and all
panel settings are reset.
To completely restore all settings as per factory
settings
Power suddenly and unexpectedly turns off,
after a period of not touching the keys.
The sustain pedal or footswitch seems to
produce the opposite effect. Example pressing
the footswitch deactivates the sustain, and
releasing the footswitch triggers the sustain.
30
The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six
batteries with completely new ones, or use the
supplied AC adaptor.
If you have lost or damaged your AC adaptor,
please contact your nearest store for a correct
replacement adaptor.
An incorrect AC mains adaptor which is not rated
sufficiently can cause malfunction or damage.
Perform a factory reset, Please refer to content in
this owner's manual. All of the user setting will
be erased and the default factory settings will be
applied to the instrument.
This is normal and the Auto Power Off function
may have been activated. If you need to disable
the Auto Power Off function, please see how to
do this in the owner's manual.
The polarity of the footswitch needs to be
correctly detected. Make sure the jack plug for
the footswitch is connected. Switch the
instrument on whilst not touching the pedal.
