Setting Up ■ Using SmartMedia™ cards (memory cards) Be sure to handle SmartMedia cards with care. Follow the important precautions below. ● Compatible SmartMedia card Type This instrument uses SmartMedia™ (3.3V) memory cards. 5V type SmartMedia cards are not compatible with this instrument. * SmartMedia is a trademark of Toshiba Corporation. ● Memory Capacity There are five types of SmartMedia cards: 8MB/16MB/ 32MB/64MB/128MB. If you wish to use capacities of 32MB or more, keep in mind that only SmartMedia cards conforming to SSFDC standards (bearing the SmartMedia™ logo) can be used. ● Inserting/Removing SmartMedia cards Inserting a SmartMedia card With the gold-plated contact side facing down, insert the SmartMedia card firmly but carefully into the card slot, as far as it will go. Be careful not to insert the card upside down or back side in. Also, do not insert anything else into the slot, other than a proper SmartMedia card. Removing a SmartMedia card Before removing the SmartMedia card, be sure to confirm that the SmartMedia card is not in use, or it is not being accessed by the instrument. Then pull the SmartMedia card out slowly by hand. If the SmartMedia card is being accessed*, a message indicating that it is in use appears on the instrument's display. * This includes all save, load, format, delete and create directory operations for the SmartMedia card. Also, be aware that the instrument will automatically access the SmartMedia card to check the media type when it is inserted while the instrument is turned on. • Never attempt to remove the SmartMedia card or turn the power off during accessing. Doing so can damage the data on the instrument/SmartMedia card and possibly the SmartMedia card itself. ● Formatting SmartMedia cards Before using a SmartMedia card with your instrument it must first be formatted. (However, do NOT format the included SmartMedia card; this has already been formatted for use. Formatting it will delete all data on it.) Once it is formatted all data on it will be erased. Make sure that no important data is contained on the card beforehand. NOTE • The SmartMedia cards formatted with this instrument may become unusable with other instruments or devices. ● About the SmartMedia cards Handle SmartMedia cards with care! • SmartMedia cards are very sensitive and can be dam- aged by static electricity. Before handling a SmartMedia card, make sure to discharge any static electricity in your body by touching something made of metal, such as a door knob or aluminum blinds. • Be sure to remove the SmartMedia card from the card slot when it is not in use for a long time. • Do not expose the SmartMedia card to direct sunlight, extremely high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liquids. • Do not place heavy objects on a SmartMedia card or bend or apply pressure to the SmartMedia card in any way. • Never touch the gold-plated contact with your fingers or let it come in contact with any other metallic or hard surface. • Do not expose the SmartMedia card to magnetic fields, such as those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on the SmartMedia card, rendering it unreadable. • Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a SmartMedia card. Also make sure that labels are attached only in the proper location. Protecting your data (write-protect) To prevent important data from being inadvertently erased, apply the write-protect seal (provided with the SmartMedia card) to the circle spot indicated on the card. If you are saving data to the card, make sure to remove write-protect seal. Do not reuse a seal that has been removed; it may not stick properly to the card and could come off in the slot. ● Data Backup For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep two copies of important data on separate SmartMedia cards. This gives you a backup if one SmartMedia card is lost or damaged. • Keep in mind that accidental power interruptions while the SmartMedia card is being accessed can result in damage and irrecoverable loss of data. For this reason, you should regularly save your important data. PSR-K1 Owner's Manual 11

About the SmartMedia cards
Handle Smar
tMedia car
ds with care!
SmartMedia cards are very sensitive and can be dam-
aged by static electricity.
Before handling a SmartMe-
dia card, make sure to discharge any static electricity in
your body by touching something made of metal, such
as a door knob or aluminum blinds.
Be sure to remove the SmartMedia card from the card
slot when it is not in use for a long time.
Do not expose the SmartMedia card to direct sunlight,
extremely high or low temperatures, or excessive
humidity, dust or liquids.
Do not place heavy objects on a SmartMedia card or
bend or apply pressure to the SmartMedia card in any
way.
Never touch the gold-plated contact with your fingers or
let it come in contact with any other metallic or hard sur-
face.
Do not expose the SmartMedia card to magnetic fields,
such as those produced by televisions, speakers, motors,
etc., since magnetic fields can partially or completely
erase data on the SmartMedia card, rendering it unread-
able.
Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to
a SmartMedia card. Also make sure that labels are
attached only in the proper location.
Pr
otecting y
our data (write-pr
otect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect seal (provided with the
SmartMedia card) to the circle spot indicated on the card.
If you are saving data to the card, make sure to remove
write-protect seal.
Do not reuse a seal that has been
removed; it may not stick properly to the card and could
come off in the slot.
Data Backup
For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you
keep two copies of important data on separate SmartMe-
dia cards. This gives you a backup if one SmartMedia card
is lost or damaged.
Never attempt to remove the SmartMedia card or turn
the power off during accessing. Doing so can damage
the data on the instrument/SmartMedia card and possi-
bly the SmartMedia card itself.
The SmartMedia cards formatted with this instrument may
become unusable with other instruments or devices.
NOTE
Keep in mind that accidental power interruptions while
the SmartMedia card is being accessed can result in
damage and irrecoverable loss of data. For this reason,
you should regularly save your important data.
