Connecting to a Personal Computer Although the CLP-811/611 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, IBM-PC/AT, or NEC PC-9801/9821 series personal computers for sequencing and other music applications without the need for a separate MIDI interface. 1. Connecting to an Apple Macintosh Series Connect the TO HOST connector of the Clavinova 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. q "Mac" Cable Connections HOST SELECT PC-2 PC-1 MIDI Mac TO HOST Set to the "Mac" position.
