Setting Local Control On/Off [Localcontrol]; Selecting Performance From The Keyboard Or Song Data For Midi Transmission [Midioutselect]; Selecting A Type Of Data Received Via Midi [Receiveparameter]; Selecting A Type Of Data Transmitted Via Midi [Transmitparameter] - Yamaha PF-500 Owner's Manual

Setting Local control on/off
[LocalControl]
"Local Control On" is a state in which the PF-500
produces the sound from its tone generator when
you play the keyboard. In "Local Control Off "
state, the keyboard and the tone generator are cut
off from each other. This means that even if you
play the keyboard, the PF-500 will not produce the
sound. Instead, the keyboard data can be transmit-
ted via MIDI to a connected MIDI device, which
can produce the sound. The "Local Control Off "
setting is useful when you wish to play an external
sound source while playing the keys on the PF-500.
