Turning Local Control On and Off

This setting effectively determines whether or not the
keyboard and pedals of the digital piano are connected to
the digital piano’s sound source, as illustrated below.

When Local Control is on (the normal setting), anything
played on the keyboard is sounded by the internal sound
source and simultaneously output from the MIDI OUT
terminal. When off, anything played on the keyboard is
output from the MIDI OUT terminal only, without being
sounded by the sound source.
Local Control can be turned off when you are using the digital
piano as the sound source of a connected sequencer or other
device, and you want to guard against sound being produced
should the digital piano keyboard be pressed accidentally.

To turn Local Control on and off
