s Using the TO HOST terminal Connect the serial port of the personal computer (RS-232C terminal or RS-422 terminal) to the TO HOST terminal of the PSR-9000. For the connection cable, use the appropriate cable below (sold separately) that matches the personal computer type. q IBM-PC/AT Series Connect the RS-232C terminal on the computer to the TO HOST terminal on the PSR-9000 using a serial cable (D-SUB 9P -> MINI DIN 8P cross cable). Set the PSR-9000 HOST SELECT switch to the "PC-2" position. PC-2 PC-1 MIDI Mac MIDI Functions mini DIN 8-pin D-SUB 9-pin PSR-9000 q Macintosh Series Connect the RS-422 terminal (modem or printer terminal) on the computer to the TO HOST terminal on the PSR-9000 using a serial cable (system peripheral cable, 8 bit). Set the PSR9000 HOST SELECT switch to the "Mac" position. PC-2 PC-1 MIDI Mac mini DIN 8-pin mini DIN 8-pin PSR-9000 Set the MIDI interface clock in the sequencer software you are using to 1 MHz.

For details about the necessary MIDI settings for computer and sequence software you are using, refer to the relevant owner's manuals. About the Thru Port Function This function can be used when a computer is connected to the TO HOST terminal of the PSR-9000. It gives you exceptionally flexible and comprehensive control over the routing of incoming MIDI data. For example, you could use this to selectively play back parts of song data from a computer - having the PSR-9000 respond to certain parts of the song, while playing back other parts on a separate connected tone generator (as shown in the illustration). Select the desired THRU PORT settings from the MIDI SYSTEM display (page 150) on the PSR-9000 as described below, and make the appropriate port settings on your computer/sequencer software. Tone Generator MIDI IN MIDI OUT B PSR-9000 THRU PORT Comments NO THRU All incoming MIDI data from the computer is recognized by the PSR-9000, but is not transmitted through the MIDI B OUT terminal. THRU All incoming MIDI data from the computer is recognized by the PSR-9000 and is also transmitted unprocessed through the MIDI B OUT terminal. In this case, the MIDI B OUT terminal functions as MIDI THRU. OFF Only MIDI data assigned to Port 1 from the computer is recognized by the PSR9000. The data is not transmitted through the MIDI B OUT terminal. Any MIDI data that is assigned to ports other than Port 1 is not recognized or transmitted. 1-8 Only MIDI data assigned to Port 1 from the computer is recognized by the PSR- 9000. The data that is assigned to the port number set here is transmitted through the MIDI B OUT terminal. Any MIDI data that is assigned to ports other than the one selected here and Port 1 is not recognized or transmitted. MIDI data and its port assignment(s) is transmitted to the PSR-9000. mini DIN 8-pin Set the THRU PORT setting in the MIDI SYSTEM display (page 150) Computer and software with multipleport capability. q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q Reference 149 147
