Basic Operations
Changing the File Selection Display View
The File Selection display actually has two different view ty pes. One is Normal View, which we’ve seen up until this 
point. The other is List View, which lets you open files acco rding to their numbers. Since the Tyros5 has many files 
spread out over several pages, number input in List View may be quicker and more convenient—providing you know the 
number of the file.
Switch between the two types by pressing the [7 ] (VIEW) button.
[F] PROPERTY Shows the property (loca tion, name and size) of the file.
[G] (TOP) Moves the cursor (red frame) to the top of this list.
[H]/[I] PAGE UP/DOWN Scrolls by pages up/down through the list.
[J] (END) Moves the cursor to the end of this list.
[1  ]–
[5  ] (Number Input) Input the desi
red number. To select Voice number 0 12, for example, press the buttons 
corresponding to “1” and “2” in sequence,  and press the [ENTER] button. Entering 
one-digit numbers is done in the same way.
[6  ] (UP/DOWN) Selects the next or previous file.
[7 ] CLEAR Press this to cancel the number you’ve input.

tons (other than the [FILE ACCESS] button).
