NOTE: After pressing the Demo and Metronome buttons in Step 1, you will
have three seconds to begin using the Transpose Up or Down buttons
(or the Data Control knob) to change the Time Signature. After three
seconds, the piano goes back to Performance Mode (the basic “play the
piano” setting), and the LCD goes back to its main screen. This three-
second “Time Out” function is common to most of the editing functions of
DCP-300.
