Disabling Buttons—Panel Lock

By using the Panel Lock function, you can disable the buttons

with the exception of certain operations. This is a convenient

way to prevent buttons from being pressed inadvertently,

changing the settings.

When the panel is locked, the following operations can be

performed.

- Play using the piano sound

Before switching the power on, turn the
volume all the way down.

Press the [Power] switch to turn off the
power.

While holding down the [Piano 1] button,
press the [Power] switch to turn on the
power.

Adjust the volume.

Playing the keyboard now produces a Piano 1 sound.

It will not be possible to switch to another sound.

Switching the power off and back on again releases the

panel lock and returns the MP-500 to its usual state.

You can set Panel Lock in Step 3 above by turning on the

power while holding down any Tone button other than the

[Piano 1] button. In that case, you can play using only the

tone of the button that was pressed.
