USB Flash Memory Operations

By connecting the USB flash memory device to the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal, you can

save the data created on this instrument, such as User Song and parameter settings.

The saved data can be recalled to this instrument again for the future use.

• It is recommended to use the Power Adaptor when executing USB flash memory operations, since battery power may

not be reliable enough to last through these crucial operations. When you try executing certain functions, the “Use

Adaptor” indication may appear and the selected function cannot be executed.

IMPORTANT

Precautions when using the USB [TO

DEVICE] terminal

This instrument features a built-in USB [TO DEVICE]

terminal. When connecting a USB device to the terminal,

be sure to handle the USB device with care. Follow the

important precautions below.

 Compatible USB devices

• USB flash memory

Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or

mouse cannot be used. Although USB devices 1.1 to 3.0

can be used on this instrument, the amount of time for

saving to or loading from the USB device may differ

depending on the type of data or the status of the instru-

ment. The instrument does not necessarily support all

commercially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot

guarantee operation of USB devices that you purchase.

Before purchasing a USB device for use with this instru-

ment, please visit the following web page:

 Connecting USB device

• When connecting a USB device to the USB [TO

DEVICE] terminal, make sure that the connector on

the device is appropriate and that it is connected in the

proper direction.

Using USB Flash Memory

By connecting the instrument to a USB flash memory,

you can save data you’ve created to the connected device,

as well as read data from the connected device.

 The number of USB flash memory to be used

Only one USB flash memory device can be connected to

the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal.

 Formatting USB flash memory

You should format the USB storage device only with this

instrument (page 58). A USB flash memory formatted on

another device may not operate properly.

 To protect your data (write-protect)

To prevent important data from being inadvertently

erased, apply the write-protect provided with each USB

flash memory. If you are saving data to the USB flash

memory, make sure to disable write-protect.

 Turning off the instrument

When turning off the instrument, make sure that the

instrument is NOT accessing the USB flash memory by

playback/recording or file management (such as during

Save, Copy, Delete and Format operations). Failure to do

so may corrupt the USB flash memory and the data.

• For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer

to the owner’s manual of the USB device.

• The rating of the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal is a maximum of

5V/500mA. Do not connect USB devices having a rating above

this, since this can cause damage to the instrument itself.

• Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device while

executing playback/recording and file management opera-

tions (such as Save, Copy, Delete and Format), or when

accessing the USB device. Failure to observe this may

result in “freezing” of the operation of the instrument or

corruption of the USB device and the data.

• When connecting then disconnecting the USB device (and

vice versa), make sure to wait a few seconds between the

two operations.

• When connecting a USB cable, make sure that the length is

less than 3 meters.

NOTE

NOTICE

NOTE

• Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the

instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.

• The format operation overwrites any previously existing

data. Make sure that the USB flash memory you are format-

ting does not contain important data.
