Power Supply

Your digital piano runs on standard household power.

Be sure to turn off power whenever you are not using

the digital piano.

Make sure that the POWER button is in the

OFF position (raised).

Connect the power cord that comes with the

digital piano to the AC power jack on the

bottom of the digital piano.*

* PX-800V only

Plug the power cord into a household power

outlet.

IMPORTANT!

• Always make sure that the POWER button is the OFF

position before plugging in or unplugging the power cord.

• The shape of the power cord plug and household power

outlet receptacle differ according to country and

geographical area. The illustration shows just one

example of the shapes that are available.

• The power cord of the PX-800 is hard-wired to the digital

piano.

z Make sure the power lamp is completely turned off

before unplugging the power cord from the power

outlet. Be sure to read and observe all of the safety

precautions concerning power supply.

Connections

IMPORTANT!

• Whenever connecting something to the digital piano, first

use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to a low

level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the

level you want.

Bottom

Connect commercially available headphones to the

PHONES jack. Connecting headphones to the

PHONES jack cuts off output to the speakers, which

means you can practice even late at night without

bothering others. To protect your hearing, make sure

that you do not set the volume level too high when

using headphones.

NOTE

• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the PHONES

jack as far as it will go. If you don’t, you may hear sound

from only one side of the headphones.

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier

to the digital piano and then play through external

speakers for more powerful volume and better sound

quality.

IMPORTANT!

• The digital piano automatically adjusts sound output to

optimize for headphone output (when headphones are

connected) or built-in speaker output (when headphones

are not connected). Note that this feature also affects the

sound output from the LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.

Connecting Audio Equipment (Figure 1)

R (Right) is the right channel and L/MONO (Left) is the

left channel. Use commercially available connection

cords to connect as shown in Figure 1. Normally, you

should set the input selector of the audio equipment to

the terminal where the digital piano is connected (AUX

IN, etc.) Adjust volume using the digital piano’s

VOLUME controller.

Connecting a Music Amplifier (Figure 2)

R (Right) is the right channel and L/MONO (Left) is the

left channel. Connecting to the L/MONO jack only

outputs a mixture of both channels. Use a

commercially available connection cord to connect as

shown in Figure 2. Adjust volume using the digital

piano’s VOLUME controller.

Use only accessories that are specified for use with this

digital piano.

Use of unauthorized accessories creates the risk of fire,

electric shock, and personal injury.

Keyboard Keys” on page E-8.

Press the POWER button to turn on the

digital piano.

IMPORTANT!

• When you turn on the digital piano, it performs a power

Playing with Different Tones

NOTE

•The DSP* effect will be applied if you select a tone with DSP.

• Note that the digital piano’s DSP resources are limited. Because of this, selecting a tone with DSP can cause notes that are

currently being played to cut off (if they are being played using a tone with DSP), or it can remove the DSP effect from an

operation (layer, split, demo tune) that was previously assigned a tone with DSP.

(* See page E-12)

Selecting a Tone Using the Keyboard Keys

While holding down the TEMPO/SETTING button, press the keyboard key that corresponds to the

tone you want to select.

• This will cause the lamp above the button to flash and the tone number of the selected tone to appear on the display.

Recording and Play Back

You can store the notes you play in digital piano

memory for later playback. You can have up to five

songs in memory at one time.

A track is a container of recorded data, and each song

consists of two tracks: Track 1 and Track 2. You can

record each track separately and then combine them so

they play back together as a single song.

Memory Capacity

• Digital piano memory can hold about 50,000 notes

total, for five songs. Each song can contain up to

about 10,000 notes.

• Recording stops automatically and the REC lamp

goes out if the number of notes in memory exceeds

the maximum.

Recorded Data

•Keyboard play

•Tone used

• Pedal operations

• Reverb and chorus settings

• Tempo setting

• Layer and split settings (Track 1 only)

Recording Data Storage

• Starting a new recording deletes any data that was

previously recorded in memory.

• Should power fail during recording, all of the data in

the track you are recording will be deleted.

• You can save memory data to external media, if you

want. See “Using an SD Memory Card” on page E-29

for more information.

IMPORTANT!

• CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. takes no responsibility

for any damages, lost profits, or claims by third parties

arising from the deletion of recorded data due to

Using an SD Memory Card

• An SD memory card can become quite warm after very

long use in the SD memory card slot. This is normal and

does not indicate malfunction.

• An SD memory card has a limited service life. After very

long use, you may start to experience problems with

storing data to, or reading or deleting data from the

memory card. When this happens, you need to purchase

a new SD memory card.

Using an SD Memory Card with the Digital

Piano

When using an SD Memory card, first be sure to format

the memory card on the digital piano. For details, see

“Formatting an SD Memory Card” on page E-33.

IMPORTANT!

• Note that the SD memory card must be oriented correctly

when you insert it into the SD memory card slot. Trying to

force the memory card into the slot can damage the card

and the slot.

• Never remove the SD memory card from the card slot or

turn off the digital piano while any data access operation

(save, read, format) is being performed. Doing so can

corrupt the data on the memory card and damage the SD

memory card slot.

To insert an SD memory card

With the SD memory card facing upwards as

shown in the illustration, angle the card

downwards as you insert it into the SD

memory card slot.

• Push the card into the slot until you hear it click into

place.

To remove an SD memory card

IMPORTANT!

• Before removing the SD memory card, check to make

sure that the lamp above the CARD button is not lit. If the

lamp is lit or flashing, it means that the card is being

accessed, and that you should not remove it.

Gently press the SD memory card slightly

further into the slot and then release it.

• This will cause the memory card to disengage and

eject partially.

Pull the memory card out of the slot.

Playback of SMF format data and song data converted

Assembling the Stand

PREPARATION

• Before starting assembly, check to make sure that you

have all the parts shown below. You can find the screws

in a plastic bag inside of the polystyrene foam packing

material.

• This stand does not include any of the tools required for

assembly. It is up to you to prepare a large Philips head

(+) screwdriver for assembly.

CAUTION

• The stand should be assembled by two people working

together.

• The stand should be assembled on a flat surface.

• Do not remove the tape securing the keyboard cover in

place until assembly is complete. Removing the tape can

cause the keyboard cover to open and close during

assembly, creating the risk of personal injury to your

hands and fingers.

• Take care that you do not pinch your fingers between

parts when assembling them.

• When placing the digital piano on the floor, be sure to

place it on something soft (a blanket, cushion, etc.). Do

not place the digital piano directly onto the floor.

NOTE

• When attaching the digital piano and the speaker box C

to side panels A and B, lay the entire assembly on its

side.

• Be sure to follow the proper procedure when assembling

the stand. Be especially careful in the case of steps 2 and

3. Reversing these two steps creates the risk that the

connector will not be plugged in fully.

Assembling the Stand

PREPARATION

• Before starting assembly of the stand, divide the

polystyrene foam packing material K into the sections

shown in Figure 1. Use the packing material to secure

side panels A and B as shown in Figure 2. You will have

an easier time assembling the stand if the side panels are

raised as shown in the illustration.

• If you do not have any packing material available for

some reason, use a magazine or some other thick item.

Attach side panels A and B to the digital

piano. Secure the side panels using four

screws D.

Plug the speaker box C cable into the

speaker connector on the bottom of the digital

piano.

• Stand the speaker box C up on its edge as shown in

the illustration when connecting the cable.

• Press the plug fully into the connector as far as it will

go.

• When disconnecting the connector, press the hook as

shown in the illustration below as you pull out.

Assembling the Stand

E-37

With the speaker box C laying on its side as

shown in the illustration, secure side panels

A and B to the speaker box C. Secure the

side panels using four screws D.

• Align the screw holes of the speaker box C with the

screw holes of the side panels as you install the

screws D.

• Partially tighten the screws on one side of the speaker

box C and then fully tighten the screws on the other

side.

• Next, fully tighten the screws that you partially

tightened.

• You can also install the speaker box C so it faces

towards the back of the stand.

After ensuring that all of the screws are fully

tightened, remove the packing material and

stand up the stand.

• Cover each of the eight side panel screws with screw

caps E.

• Insert screw caps at the locations indicated in the

illustration and press them in as far as they will go.

Attach the brackets I to the pedal unit F,

and temporarily secure them with screws G.

Remove the screws that hold the corner

brackets in place on the back corners (the

corners away from the pianist) of the side

panels.

Assembling the Stand

Turn around the corner brackets as shown in

the illustration, and insert them between

pedal unit brackets I

-(a)

and I

-(b)

, and the

edges of the side panels.

WARNING

• The corner brackets help to prevent the stand from

tipping over. Whenever the stand is in a location that is

not up against a wall, reorient the corner brackets as

shown in the illustration. Leaving the corner brackets in

their original orientations can make it easy for the stand

to tip over towards the back, creating the risk of personal

injury.

Locating the Stand against a Wall

Leaving the anti-tipping brackets in their original

orientation, insert the pedal unit brackets between the

anti-tipping brackets and the edges of the side panels.

Secure the corner brackets to the stand using

the screws you removed in step 6.

IMPORTANT!

• When tightening the corner bracket screws, press down

on the pedal unit to ensure that the pedal part comes into

contact with the floor.

• The side panels have joint connectors inside that engage

with the corner bracket screws. If you have trouble

inserting the screws into the joint connector screw holes,

use a screwdriver to rotate the joint connector and adjust

the position of the screw hole for easier access. See the

detail drawing (marked with a star) in the above

illustration.

Assembling the Stand

E-39

To tighten the joint connector and screw

(1) Rotate the screw counterclockwise about three

turns to ensure that the screw is in the center of the

joint connector.

(2) Slowly rotate the screw clockwise and confirm that

it tightens without resistance. If you feel any

resistance, it means that the screw is not engaging

properly with the joint connector. Rotate the screw

counterclockwise again and try to get it to engage

properly.

(3) If you experience problems getting the screw to

engage properly, use a screwdriver to rotate the

joint connector 180 degrees. Next perform steps (1)

and (2) again to engage the screw from the screw

hole on the other side.

* Forcibly tightening a screw while it is not engaged

properly can strip the threads of the screw and joint

connector, making them unusable.

Securely tighten the screws G that you

temporarily tightened in step 5.

10.

Cover the screw heads with the caps J.

Orienting the pedal unit plug as shown in the

illustration, plug it into the pedal connector on

the bottom of the digital piano. Secure the

pedal cord with clips H.

• Attach the clips H at two locations to the stand’s side

panel as shown in the illustration.

Connect the speaker power cord that comes

out of the power supply box to the speaker

box.

Check to make sure that the POWER button

is in the OFF position (raised). If power is on,

press the POWER button to turn it off.

outlet receptacle differ according to country and

geographical area. The illustration shows just one

example of the shapes that are available.

• The power cord of the PX-800 is hard-wired to the digital

piano.

CAUTION

• The screws of the stand can work loose due to the effects

of temperature and humidity changes, vibration, etc.

Because of this, you need to periodically check the

screws for proper tightness. Retighten any loose screws

you find.

• To power the digital piano, use a power outlet that

allows easy access when plugging in or unplugging the

power cord.
