ABOUT

USB

The CA piano can be connected with a personal computer with a USB cable for exchanging MIDI data. You
need a USB driver installed in your computer.

[For Windows XP/Me users]
A standard USB driver is already installed in your computer. You don’t need to install a new driver.

[For Windows 2000/98SE users]
You need to install the designated driver in your computer. Visit the KAWAI web site at http://www.kawai.co.jp/
english/Download1.html and download the program.

[For Macintosh users]
Currently we don’t have a USB driver available for Macintosh computers. Please use an appropriate MIDI
interface and MIDI cables when connecting the CA piano to a Macintosh computer.

NOTE:
When both MIDI jacks and USB jack are connected, USB has priority.
When connecting USB cable to the CA piano, first connect the USB cable and then turn the power of the CA
piano on.
It may take some time to startcommunication when the CA piano is connected to the computer via USB.
When USB communication is unstable with connection via hub, connect the USB cable directly to the USB
port of the computer.
Turning the power of CA piano on/off or disconnecting the USB cable while the following actions may cause
unstable communication.

while installing USB driver
while booting up the computer
while MIDI application is working
while communicating with the computer
while the computer is in energy saver mode

* If you have any problem with USB communication, consult the instruction manual of your computer and
check your computer set up.
