YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.

■ Location

Do not expose the instrument to the following

conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or

more serious damage.

● Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).

● High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, out-

side, or in a car during the daytime).

● Excessive humidity.

● Excessive dust.

● Strong vibration.

■ Power Supply

● Turn the power switch OFF when the instrument

is not in use.

● An AC adaptor, if used (the PSR-320/420 runs

from either batteries or an optional AC adaptor),

should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the

instrument is not to be used for an extended pe-

riod of time.

● Unplug the AC adaptor during electric storms.

● Avoid plugging the AC adaptor into the same AC

outlet as appliances with high power consump-

tion, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid

using multi-plug adaptors since these can result

in reduced sound quality, operation errors, and

possibly damage.

■ Turn Power OFF When Making

Connections

● To avoid damage to the instrument and other

devices to which it is connected, turn the power

switches of all related devices OFF prior to con-

necting or disconnecting MIDI cables.

■ Handling and Transport

● Never apply excessive force to the controls, con-

nectors or other parts of the instrument.

● Always unplug cables by gripping the plug

firmly, not by pulling on the cable.

● Disconnect all cables before moving the instru-

ment.

● Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping,

or placing heavy objects on the instrument can

result in scratches and more serious damage.

■ Cleaning

● Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth.

● A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove

stubborn grime and dirt.

● Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.

● Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the instru-

ment (vinyl can stick to and discolor the sur-

face).

■ Electrical Interference

● This instrument contains digital circuitry and

may cause interference if placed too close to

radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move

the instrument further away from the affected

equipment.

■ Data Backup

● Internal data (registration memory and song

data) will be retained in memory even if the

power switch is turned OFF as long as an AC

power adaptor is connected or batteries are in-

stalled.

■ Service and Modification

● The PSR-320/420 contains no user serviceable

parts. Opening it or tampering with it in anyway

can lead to irreparable damage and possibly

electric shock. Refer all servicing to qualified

YAMAHA personnel.

Power Supply

Your PSR-320/420 will run either from batteries or an optional power adap-

tor. Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to

use.

• Never interrupt the power

supply (e.g. remove the batter-

ies or unplug the AC adaptor)

during any PSR-320/420 record

operation! Doing so can result

in a loss of data.

■ Using Batteries...............................................................................................................................................

For battery operation the PSR-320/420 requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D”

size, R-20 or equivalent batteries.

When the batteries need to be replaced “Btry Low” will appear on the

display. Also the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and

other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and either

replace the batteries or connect an AC adaptor.

Replace the batteries as follows:

ZOpen the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom

panel.

XInsert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings

on the inside of the compartment.

CReplace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place.

• When the batteries run down,

replace them with a complete

set of six new batteries.

NEVER mix old and new batter-

ies.

• Do not use different kinds of

batteries (e.g. alkaline and

manganese) at the same time.

• To prevent possible damage

due to battery leakage, remove

the batteries from the instru-

ment if it is not to be used for

an extended period of time.

Setting Up

This section contains information about setting up your PSR-320/

420 and preparing to play. Be sure to go through this section

carefully before using your PSR-320/420.

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-5, PA-

5B, or PA-5C AC Power Adap-

tor to power your instrument

from the AC mains. The use of

other adaptors may result in

irreparable damage to both the

adaptor and the PSR-320/420.

■ Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor.............................................................

Plug the DC output cable from an optional Yamaha PA-5, PA-5B, or PA-

5C AC Power Adaptor into the DC IN jack on the rear panel of the PSR-

320/420, then plug the Power Adaptor (or the AC cable of the Power Adap-

tor) into a convenient wall AC power socket. The internal batteries are auto-

matically disconnected when an AC Power Adaptor is used.

Connections

■ The PHONES Jack...................................................................................................................................

A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private

practice or late-night playing. The internal stereo speaker system is auto-

matically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES

jack.

Setting Up

■ SUSTAIN Jack...................................................................................................................................................

An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch can be plugged into the rear-

panel SUSTAIN jack for sustain control. The footswitch functions like the

damper pedal on a piano — press for sustain, release for normal sound.

• Be sure that you do not press the

pedal while turning the power on.

If you do, the ON/OFF status of

the footswitch will be reversed.

■ MIDI IN and OUT Connectors.............................................................................................

The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI de-

vice (such as a MIDI sequencer) which can be used to control the PSR-320/

420. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the PSR-

320/420 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the keyboard).

More details on MIDI are provided on page 56.

The Split Mode

The SPLIT mode lets you play different voices with the left and right hands.

You could, for example, play bass with the left hand while playing piano with

the right. The right-hand voice is the keyboard voice you select in the normal

way (page 12), and the left hand voice is selected via the SPLIT VOICE func-

tion, described below. The “split point” is initially set at B2 (note number 59),

but it can be set at any key on the keyboard.

The SPLIT mode is engaged by pressing the [MODE] button so that the

indicator in the display appears next to “SPLIT” in the mode list to the right of

the display.

• The SPLIT mode and DUAL

VOICE feature (page 18) can be

used together. In this case the

dual voice plays simultaneously

with the right-hand voice only.

Split Voice The split voice can be changed as required while the

number and name of the current split voice appear on the

top line of the display.

S. olume Sets the volume of the split voice so you can create the

optimum blend with the right-hand voice. The volume

range is from “00” (no sound) to “127” (maximum split

voice volume).

S.Octa e Shifts the pitch of the split voice up or down one or two

octaves. “–1” is down one octave, “–2” is down two oc-

taves; “+1” and “+2” are up one and two octaves, respec-

tively.

S.Pan Positions the split voice in the stereo sound field. The pan

range is from “–7” to “+7”. “–7” is full left and “+7” is full

right.

S.Split Sets the keyboard split point — i.e. the key that separates

the left- and right-hand voices (the split-point key is in-

cluded in the left-hand section of the keyboard). Simply

press the key you want to assign as the split point. The key

number of the key you press will appear to the left of

“S.Split” on the top line of the display. You can also use

the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons or number buttons to enter

the split point key number. The lowest key on the keyboard

(C1) is key number “36”, middle C (C3) is “60”, and the

highest key (C6) is 96. The split point can be set at any

key number from 00 through 127, allowing the split point to

be set outside the range of the PSR-320/420 keyboard for

MIDI applications. The default split point is 59 (B2).
