Limitations on the Clavinova when using the File Utility

By using the File Utility, you can transfer files between the internal memory or floppy disk of the Clavinova and your computer, and
edit them.
There are some operating states of the Clavinova in which it is not possible to use the File Utility or in which some File Utility functions
are not available.

You cannot use File Utility to perform file operations in the following states.

• Demo song mode

• Song recording/playback mode

• During file operations

• During the various [SONG SETTING] operations

The following operations cannot be performed while File Utility is running.

• File operations

• Song loading

English

•Track button on/off

The following operations cannot be performed on the Clavinova.

• Changing the name of a protected song

• Changing the filename extension of a file

• Japanese display in the LCD screen

• Creating a folder

• Copying a folder from the computer to the storage memory

•Transmitting a folder from floppy disk to storage memory

• Copying a file within the same folder

•Transmitting a protected song to the computer

•Transmitting path information to a device

n When transferring a file between the Clavinova and your computer, you must set the type of characters on your Clavinova ([CharacterCode]) to

n On the Clavinova, the File Utility ID is fixed at “1”. If you specify an ID other than “1,” you will be unable to transmit or receive data. For details

About Open Plug-in Technology

You can start the File Utility software as either a stand-alone software or a plug-in application in the Open Plug-in Technology compatible
application.
Refer to the owner’s manual of the client application (sequencer, etc.) for details on using the File Utility as a plug-in software.

Open Plug-in Technology (OPT) is a newly developed software format that allows control over MIDI devices from a music software
sequencer. For example, this allows you to start up and operate various parts of your music system, such as plug-in board editors, and
mixing control editors - directly from an OPT-compatible sequencer, without having to use each separately. This also makes it unnec­essary to set MIDI drivers for each application, streamlining your music production system and making all operations more convenient
and seamless.

About the OPT Levels

The client application and its compatibility with OPT can be divided into three levels, as shown below.

Level 1 – OPT Panels provides basic support for opening and displaying OPT control panels that can transmit data via the

clients’ external MIDI ports.
Typically this will allow basic hardware editor control panels to operate properly.

Level 2 – OPT Processors provides support for real-time MIDI processors and panel automation.

Typically this will allow both real-time and offline MIDI effects (e.g. Arpeggiators, transposers etc.) to operate properly
and supply automation to OPT panels.

Level 3 – OPT Views provides support for edit views and MIDI processors/panels that require direct access to client se-

quencer storage structures. Typically this will allow sophisticated MIDI edit views to be supported (e.g. List editors, Auto
Accompaniment, Data Checkers etc.).

OPT Level Implementation for the File Utility

This chart shows the OPT-compatibility of the File Utility.

n Certain operations may not work as expected if there is no corresponding function in the client application (sequencer, etc.). The highest level of imple-

mentation for the client application is indicated in the OPT logo (which appears along with the version information in the application).
