Simultaneous use with other serial communi-
cation software such as PM1DLOAD
PM1D Manager cannot be used simultaneously on
the same port as other serial communication soft-
ware such as PM1DLOAD.
Please exit all such software before starting PM1D
Manager.
Simultaneous use with software that uses the
YAMAHA USB-MIDI driver
[Windows 98 / 98SE / Me]
Software (such as sequencers) that uses the MIDI
port cannot be used simultaneously on the same port
with the YAMAHA USB-MIDI Driver. They can be
used simultaneously if they use different ports.
[Windows 2000 / XP]
The Windows 2000 / XP version of the YAMAHA
USB-MIDI driver (currently version 1.61) does not
have multi-client support, so even if a different port
is used, simultaneous use with the drivers of other
software is not possible.
PC connections in a system that includes a
console
If the system includes a console, connections with
the PC are limited in the following ways.
It is not possible to select UPLOAD when initiating
the connection.
When online, the following items cannot be operated
from PM1D Manager. (However, they can be oper-
ated from the console.)
• Load/save operations in the LOAD/SAVE screen
(UTILITY function)
• STORE, TITLE EDIT, and APPLY EDIT button
operations, changes to Scene Link, and Scene
Sort in the MEMORY screen (SCENE function)
• STORE, TITLE EDIT, and APPLY EDIT button
operations in the various libraries
• Startup/viewing/operations in the UNIT,
PATCH, and NAME library popup windows
Hint
If you want to transfer data created on PM1D Man-
ager to the console, store the PM1D Manager settings
on the PC to an ATA compatible PC flash storage
card or CD (Compact Flash) card. You can then
insert this card into the PC ATA STORAGE CARD
SLOT of the console and load the data into the con-
sole.
