Using a Memory Card
You can save Digital Keyboard user area data to a memory 
card and load data from a memory card to Digital Keyboard 
memory. You also can play music files (MIDI files) stored on a 
memory card on the Digital Keyboard.
 Use a memory card that satisfies the conditions below.
Format: SDHC or SD
Capacity: 2GB to 32GB
Use of any memory cards other than those defined 
above is not supported.
■Data that can be saved to and exported from a 
memory card
*Save only. For information about saving and importing individual data 
items, see “Saving Digital Keyboard Data to a Memory 
Card” (page E-133) and “Loading Data from a Memory 
Card” (page E-135).
 For details about saving and loading all data, see “To batch 
save all Digital Keyboard data to a memory card” (page 
E-134) and “To batch load all Digital Keyboard memory 
data from a memory card” (page E-135).
■Data that can be directly played back from a 
memory card
 If you want to use SMF or rhythm data on a memory card 
that is not supported by this Digital Keyboard (such as an 
SD memory card with capacity less than 2GB), you need 
either to copy the data to a supported memory card on the 
Digital Keyboard, or use Data Manager to transfer the data 
from a computer to the Digital Keyboard. For more 
information, see “Importing Data from Various Storage 
Media” (page E-142).
 Be sure to observe the precautions provided in the 
documentation that comes with the memory card.
 Memory cards have a write-protect switch. Use it when you 
want to protect the data on the card from accidental 
deletion.
 Avoid using a memory card under the following conditions. 
Such conditions can corrupt data stored on the memory 
card.
– Areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity, or 
corrosive gas.
– Areas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and digital 
noise.
 Never touch the contacts of a memory card when loading it 
or removing it from the Digital Keyboard.

Card and Card Slot Precautions 
						

							Using a Memory Card
E-132
 The message “Please Wait” will remain on the display while 
a data save operation is in progress. Do not perform any 
other operation while it is displayed.
Turning off the Digital Keyboard or removing the memory 
card can cause Digital Keyboard data to be deleted or 
become corrupted. It also can cause the Digital Keyboard 
to fail to turn on when the L-1 (POWER) button is pressed. 
If this happens, refer to “Troubleshooting” (page E-145).
 Never insert anything besides a memory card into the card 
slot. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.
 Electrostatic charge from your fingers or the memory card 
to the card slot can cause malfunction of the Digital 
Keyboard. If this happens, turn the Digital Keyboard off and 
then back on again.
 A memory card can become quite warm after very long use 
in the card slot. This is normal and does not indicate 
malfunction.
 A memory card must be positioned correctly when 
being loaded into the Digital Keyboard. Trying to force 
an improperly oriented memory card into the slot can 
damage the memory card and the slot.
1.With the top of the memory card facing 
upwards (so you can see it), carefully insert it 
into the Digital Keyboard’s SD card slot (T-1) 
until stops with a click.
2.To remove the memory card first press it into 
the slot further.
 This will cause the memory card to disengage and eject 
partially. Pull the memory card the rest of the way out of 
the slot.Enter the card mode when you want to perform memory card 
operations.
 While in the rhythm mode (page E-7) press the C-9 (CARD) 
button to enter the card mode.
This will cause the : indicator to disappear from the 
display and the ; indicator to appear.
If the message “No Card” appears on the display, it means 
there is no memory card in the card slot. For details about 
what appears on the display while a card is loaded, see 
“Playing a Music File from a Memory Card” (page E-137).
 To exit the card mode, press the C-9 (CARD) button again.
This will cause the ; indicator to disappear from the 
display and the : indicator to appear.
 Format a memory card before using it for the first time.
 Before formatting a memory card, make sure it does 
not have any valuable data stored on it.
 The memory card format operation performed by this 
Digital Keyboard is a “quick format”. If you want to 
completely delete all of the data on the memory card, 
format it on your computer or some other device.
1.Insert the memory card you want to format into 
the Digital Keyboard’s card slot.
 Make sure the memory card is write-enabled. Check 
the position of the card’s write-protect switch to ensure 
it is not in the write-protect position.
2.Press the C-9 (CARD) button to enter the card 
mode.
3.While holding down the R-13 (FUNCTION) 
button, press the C-17 (MENU) button.
