Getting Ready
IMPORTANT!
• Before you can use a SmartMedia card with this
keyboard, you need to perform the procedure below to
format it. After formatting the card, transfer SMF data
from your computer to the card.
• Formatting a SmartMedia card with this keyboard
automatically creates a folder named “MUSICDAT” on
the card. When transferring SMF data from your
computer to the card for use by the keyboard, be sure
to store it in the “MUSICDAT” folder.
• Note that formatting a card that already contains data
causes all of that data to be deleted. Data deleted by
the format operation cannot be recovered. Before
performing the procedure below, check to make sure
that the media does not contain any data you might need.
PREPARATION
• Insert the SmartMedia card you want to format into the
keyboard’s card slot. Make sure that the sticker is
removed from the card’s write area, which enables
writing.
