I assume you are talking about step-time [aka manual] note entry.  So 
far as I can tell from the manual and the CZ-5000, the keyboard 
inputs the notes with the duration determined by the buttons.  The 
key press enters note; the key release stores the notes and gets set 
up for the next note.  So, if you select 1/8 notes and play the 
keyboard, you enter 1/8 notes for whatever you play.

With your unit [no keyboard] I hope an external midi device can be 
used. 

I hope this helps.

PS:  Key presses are also used to edit pitches of previously created 
sequences on the CZ-5000.
