CAUTION Before connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST connector, exit from any power-saving mode
(such as suspended, sleep, standby) of the computer. Before turning on the power to the instrument, connect the computer to the USB TO HOST connector. Execute the following before turning the power to the instrument on/off or plugging/unplugging the USB cable to/from the USB TO HOST connector. - Quit any open applications. - Make sure that data is not being transmitted from the instrument. (Data is transmitted only by playing notes on the keyboard or playing back a song.) While a USB device is connected to the instrument, you should wait for six seconds or more between these operations: (1) when turning the power of the instrument off then on again, or (2) when alternately connecting/disconnecting the USB cable.
