Using a Memory Card

•The message “Please Wait” will remain on the display while a data save operation is in progress. Do not perform any other operation while it is displayed.

Turning off the Digital Keyboard or removing the memory card can cause Digital Keyboard data to be deleted or become corrupted. It also can cause the Digital Keyboard to fail to turn on when the L-1 (POWER) button is pressed. If this happens, refer to “Troubleshooting” (page E-150).

•Never insert anything besides a memory card into the card slot. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.

•Electrostatic charge from your fingers or the memory card to the card slot can cause malfunction of the Digital Keyboard. If this happens, turn the Digital Keyboard off and then back on again.

•A memory card can become quite warm after very long use in the card slot. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

Loading and Removing a Memory Card

•A memory card must be positioned correctly when being loaded into the Digital Keyboard. Trying to force an improperly oriented memory card into the slot can damage the memory card and the slot.

1.With the top of the memory card facing upwards (so you can see it), carefully insert it into the Digital Keyboard’s SD card slot (T-1) until stops with a click.

2.To remove the memory card first press it into the slot further.

•This will cause the memory card to disengage and eject partially. Pull the memory card the rest of the way out of the slot.

Entering the Card Mode

Enter the card mode when you want to perform memory card operations.

•While in the rhythm mode (page E-7) press the C-9 (CARD) button to enter the card mode.

This will cause the : indicator to disappear from the display and the ; indicator to appear.

If the message “No Card” appears on the display, it means there is no memory card in the card slot. For details about what appears on the display while a card is loaded, see “Playing a Music File from a Memory Card” (page E-142).

•To exit the card mode, press the C-9 (CARD) button again. This will cause the ; indicator to disappear from the display and the : indicator to appear.

Formatting a Memory Card

•Format a memory card before using it for the first time.

•Before formatting a memory card, make sure it does not have any valuable data stored on it.

•The memory card format operation performed by this Digital Keyboard is a “quick format”. If you want to completely delete all of the data on the memory card, format it on your computer or some other device.

1.Insert the memory card you want to format into the Digital Keyboard’s card slot.

•Make sure the memory card is write-enabled. Check the position of the card’s write-protect switch to ensure it is not in the write-protect position.

2.Press the C-9 (CARD) button to enter the card mode.

3.While holding down the R-13 (FUNCTION) button, press the C-17 (MENU) button.

•This displays the function menu “Play/CardUtl” screen.
