Although the PSR-8000 can be connected to a personal computer via the MIDI IN/OUT connectors and a MIDI
interface, the TO HOST connector and HOST SELECT switch allow direct connection to Apple Macintosh or IBM
PC/AT personal computers for sequencing and other music applications without the need for a separate MIDI
interface.
• When using the [TO HOST] terminal of the PSR-8000, first turn the power off on both the PSR-8000 and the computer before
connecting the cable. After connecting the cable, turn the power of the computer on first, then the PSR-8000.
• When not using the [TO HOST] terminal of the PSR-8000, make sure the cable is disconnected from the [TO HOST] terminal. If
the cable is left connected, the PSR-8000 may not function properly.
• When the HOST SELECT switch is set to “Mac”, “PC-1”, or “PC-2, no data transfer occurs via the MIDI connectors. To use the MIDI
connectors for connection via a standard MIDI interface, set the HOST SELECT switch to “MIDI”.
• No MIDI or TO HOST transmission or reception occurs in the SAMPLING mode.

Connecting to an Apple Macintosh Series Computer
..................................................................
Connect the TO HOST connector of the PSR-8000 to the modem or printer port on your Macintosh, depending
on which port your MIDI software is using for MIDI data communication, using a standard Macintosh 8-pin system
peripheral cable. Set the HOST SELECT switch to the “Mac” position.
You may also have to make other MIDI interface settings on the computer side, depending on the type of software
you use (refer to your software owner’s manual). In any case the clock speed should be set to 1 MHz.
●
Connecting to an IBM-PC/AT Series Computer
...................................................................................
Connect the TO HOST connector of the PSR-8000 to the RS-232C port on your IBM computer, using a standard
8-pin MINI DIN
→
9-pin D-SUB cross cable. Set the HOST SELECT switch to the “PC-2” position.
Refer to your software owner’s manual for information on any settings you might have to make on the computer
side.
