2. Connection to a computer
If you connect the Ci-9600/Ci-8600 to a computer via
the special PC I/F cable, you will be able to do the
same things that can be done via MIDI as described
earlier, such as playing the Ci-9600/Ci-8600's tone
generator from the computer, or using the computer
to record your keyboard performances.
The Ci-9600/Ci-8600 can be connected via a special
PC I/F cable to an IBM PC compatible or to an
Apple Macintosh.
The power must be off when you connect the
cable or change the setting of the PC/MIDI select
switch.
If the PC/MIDI select switch is in the PC position,
you must connect a special PC I/F cable to the PC
(TO HOST) connector.
On the Ci-9600/Ci-8600, setting the PC/MIDI
select switch to the MIDI position will automati-
cally set the synchronization frequency to 31.25
kbps. If you subsequently set the PC/MIDI select
switch to the PC position, the 31.25 kbps setting
will remain in effect. You will need to change this
setting as necessary.
PC (TO HOST) connector
This connector allows the Ci-9600/Ci-8600 to be controlled from a
computer, or the Ci-9600/Ci-8600 to send MIDI messages to a
computer.
Use a PC I/F cable of a type appropriate for your computer to connect
the Ci-9600/Ci-8600's PC (TO HOST) connector to your computer.

Connection to an IBM PC compatible
Use the AG-001B connection kit (connection cable,
"Korg MIDI driver" software) [sold separately] to
make connections.
However, this method of connection cannot be
used with a non-Windows application unless it
specifically supports the Ci-9600/Ci-8600.
1. Make connections to your computer
Turn off the power of the Ci-9600/Ci-8600 and
your computer, and use a special connection
cable (AG-001B [sold separately]) to connect
the serial port (COM port) of your IBM PC
compatible computer to the PC (TO HOST)
connector of the Ci-9600/Ci-8600.
