14.7 MIDI FUNCTIONS - F6
The F6 functions allow you to set up the instrument’s MIDI interface to your requirements.
For a detailed description of the connections and the MIDI messages transmitted and
received by the piano, consult chap. 15 and the “MIDI Implementation Chart”.
The end of this section provides a brief description of the MIDI protocol.
To set the MIDI functions, use the [TEMPO / FUNCTION] buttons to bring the following
video page onto the display:
Now press [DEMO/ENTER] and the [VALUE] buttons to select the functions described
below.
TRANSMIT CHANNEL – F6.1
RECEIVE CHANNEL – F6.2
The first two MIDI functions allow you to set the transmission and reception channels.
To access setting of the channels, press [DEMO/ENTER] after bringing “F6.1” (transmission
channel) or “F6.2” (reception channel) onto the display. Using the [VALUE] buttons, you
can select:
•
1/16: channel for transmitting and receiving MIDI data.
•
OFF: MIDI messages are not transmitted / received.
Press the [VALUE] keys simultaneously to restore the default condition (channel 1 for
both functions).
INFORMATION ABOUT THE USE OF MIDI CHANNELS
The number of channels on which the instrument is able to transmit MIDI
data depends on the mode (Single, Dual or Split) selected.
In Single mode the instrument
only transmits on the channel set in function
F6.1.
In Dual and Split mode, the instrument controls two channels
simultaneously. The 1ST voice transmits on the channel set with function
F6.1, while the 2ND voice transmits on the channel immediately after it
(transmission c1).
For example, if F6.1 is set on 1, in Dual and Split mode the 2ND voice
transmits on channel 2.
With regard to reception, the instrument always controls 2 channels
simultaneously, regardless of the mode selected.
The channels are the one set in function F6.2 and the one immediately
after it (reception c 1).
