Connection to a Computer
The digital piano’s USB port makes it quick and simple to
connect to a computer. You can install a USB MIDI driver
from the CD-ROM that comes bundled with the digital piano
onto a computer equipped with a USB port. After that, you
can connect your digital piano to the computer and run
commercially available MIDI software on your computer to
exchange MIDI data with the digital piano. You can also
transfer data you downloaded from the CASIO MUSIC SITE
to the digital piano, and even store digital piano data on your
computer’s hard disk.

On the computer to which you plan to connect,
install the USB MIDI driver that comes on the CD-
ROM that comes bundled with the digital piano.
