Clock Mode; Start/Stop Mode - Yamaha Portatone PSR-410 Owner's Manual

MIDI

Clock Mode

Reception of an external MIDI clock signal can be enabled or disabled as required. When disabled, all of the
PSR-410's time-based functions (Auto Accompaniment, SONG MEMORY, etc.) are controlled by its own inter-
nal clock, the speed of which is set by the PSR-410 [TEMPO] button. When MIDI clock reception is enabled,
however, all timing is controlled by an external MIDI clock signal received via the PSR-410 MIDI IN terminal
(the PSR-410 [TEMPO] setting has no effect).
Press the [RECEIVE CH/CL/COM] Button & Select "cL"
Select the Desired Mode

Start/Stop Mode

This function determines the effect of external MIDI start and stop signals. There are three start/stop modes,
as follows:
Mode "0" Start/stop reception disabled.
Mode "1" MIDI start and stop commands start and stop the PSR-410 Auto Accompaniment feature.
Mode "2" MIDI start and stop commands start and stop the PSR-410 SONG MEMORY feature.
Press the [RECEIVE CH/CL/COM] Button & Select "cd"
Select the Desired Mode
If clock reception is enabled but no MIDI clock signal is received for
more than 100 milliseconds, external clock reception is automatically
disable and normal internal clock operation resumes.
If you attempt to change the tempo setting when MIDI clock reception
is enabled, "EC" will appear on the MULTI DISPLAY.

to select "cL" on the MULTI DISPLAY ("cL" is the next step above MIDI

Use the [+/-] button in the number-button row to select the desired clock
mode. The disable and enable modes are selected alternately each time the
[+/-] button is pressed, and the selected mode appears on the left digit of
the MULTI DISPLAY ("d" for disable; "E" for enable).
Press the [RECEIVE CH/CL/COM] button, then use the [+] and [-]
buttons, the number buttons, or the [RECEIVE CH/CL/COM] button itself
to select "cd" on the MULTI DISPLAY ("cd" is the next step above "cL" —
or the next step below MIDI channel 1).
Use the [+/-] button in the number-button row to select the desired start
mode. The start/stop modes are selected in sequence each time the [+/-]
button is pressed, and the selected mode number appears on the left digit of
the MULTI DISPLAY.
