• When using the [TO HOST] terminal of the CLP-555, first turn the power off on both the CLP-555 and the

computer before connecting the cable. After connecting the cable, turn the power of the computer on first,

then the CLP-555.

• When not using the [TO HOST] terminal of the CLP-555, make sure the cable is disconnected from the [TO

HOST] terminal. If the cable is left connected, the CLP-555 may not function properly.

• When the HOST SELECT switch is set to “Mac”, “PC-1”, or “PC-2, no data transfer occurs via the MIDI

connectors. To use the MIDI connectors for connection via a standard MIDI interface, set the HOST SELECT

switch to “MIDI”.

Connecting to a Personal Computer

Although the CLP-555 can be connected to a personal computer via the MIDI

IN/OUT connectors and a MIDI interface, the TO HOST connector and HOST

SELECT switch allow direct connection to Apple Macintosh or IBM-PC/AT per-

sonal computers for sequencing and other music applications without the need

for a separate MIDI interface.

Connect the TO HOST connector of the Clavinova to the modem or

printer port on your Macintosh, depending on which port your MIDI

software is using for MIDI data communication, using a standard

Macintosh 8-pin system peripheral cable. Set the HOST SELECT

switch to the “Mac” position.

You may also have to make other MIDI interface settings on the

computer side, depending on the type of software you use (refer to your

software owner’s manual). In any case the clock speed should be set to

1 MHz.
