Connecting to a Personal Computer Although the Clavinova 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. HOST SELECT PC-2 PC-1 MIDI Mac TO HOST Set to the "Mac" position. Apple Macintosh Series Computer Connecting to an Apple Macintosh Series Computer ...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 MINI DIN 1 8-PIN 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 • 8-pin system peripheral cable. • Data transfer rate: 31,250 bps. 2 (HSK i) 1 (HSK 0) 5 (RxD-) 4 GND 3 (TxD-) 8 (RxD+) 7 (GP i) 6 (TxD+) MINI DIN 8-PIN NOTE • When using the [TO HOST] terminal of the Clavinova, first turn the power off on both the Clavinova and the computer before connecting the cable. After connecting the cable, turn the power of the computer on first, then the Clavinova. • When not using the [TO HOST] terminal of the Clavinova, make sure the cable is disconnected from the [TO HOST] terminal. If the cable is left connected, the Clavinova may not function properly. • " HS(" will appear in the display if the host computer is not turned on, the connecting cable is not properly connected, the HOST SELECT switch is not in the proper position, or the MIDI driver or MIDI application is not active. In this case, turn the power off on both the Clavinova and the computer, and check the cable connection and the position of the HOST SELECT switch. Once the connection and HOST SELECT switch position is verified, turn the power of the computer on first, then the Clavinova, to check if the MIDI driver and MIDI application 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". 38 CLP-880/860/840/820/820S
