This is a playback only model, so you have no key/hammer sensors. This means that the piano does not transmit any MIDI information as far as your playing is concerned.
If you look at the MIDI implementation chart in your owners' manual, you will find that it only transmits a limited amount of data, such as SYSEX, a few control changes, etc.
