What are the benefits of connecting S with the
keyboard?
1.1
S controls the keyboard
When a song in S is opened, S can send MIDI commands to select the
corresponding registration in the connected keyboard. So
you don’t have to manually
switch anything on keyboard during your performance to start playing the next song
.
This method of remote control works with Tyros 2 and later keyboards, but not with the
Tyros 1 or any PSR keyboard.
Attention:
This method of remote control only works with Tyros 2 or newer, but not with Tyros 1 or
keyboards of PSR series.
1.2
Keyboard controls S
If you prefer to select your song from a registration on the keyboard, then the other
direction of remote control is available. S
can automatically open the matching
song and display the corresponding PDF file as soon as you select a registration on the
keyboard
.
This type of remote control works with all keyboards.

Compatible Yamaha keyboards
Attention:
For the new Yamaha Genos keyboard, you can find a separate manual named
“
How to
connect YAMAHA Genos keyboards with S
”.
This manual shows how the settings are made on a Tyros 5. The configuration of other Tyros
models or PRS keyboards is similar. Note that older PSR models support only 250 files per
folder, as opposed to 500 on a Tyros.
With Tyros 2-5, PSR-S775 and PSR-S975 keyboards, both directions of remote control are
possible. With the Tyros 1 and older PSR keyboards, only the direction from keyboard to
S is available.
