Precautions when using the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal
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 storage devices (flash memory, floppy disk drive,
hard disk drive, etc.)
• USB hub
The instrument does not necessarily support all commer-
cially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee oper-
ation of USB devices that you purchase. Before purchasing a
USB device for use with this instrument, please visit the fol-
lowing 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.
• If you intend to connect two or three devices at the same
time to a terminal, you should use a USB hub device. The
USB hub must be self-powered (with its own power
source) and the power must be on. Only one USB hub
can be used. If an error message appears while using the
USB hub, disconnect the hub from the instrument, then
turn on the power of the instrument and re-connect the
USB hub.
• Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1 standard,
you can connect and use a USB 2.0 storage device with
the instrument. However, note that the transfer speed is
that of USB 1.1.
■ Using USB Storage Devices
• By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device,
you can read data from the connected device.
■ The number of USB storage device to be
used
Up to one USB storage devices can be connected to the USB
[TO DEVICE] terminal.
■ Formatting USB storage media
When a USB storage device is connected or media is
inserted, a message may appear prompting you to format
the device/media. If so, execute the Format operation (page
24).
CAUTION
The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does
not contain important data. Proceed with caution, espe-
cially when connecting multiple USB storage media.
■ To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently erased,
apply the write-protect provided with each storage device or
media. If you are saving data to the USB storage device,
make sure to disable write-protect.
■ Connecting/removing USB storage
device
Before removing the media from the device, make sure that
the instrument is not accessing data (such as in the Save
operations).
CAUTION
Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB
storage device, or connecting/disconnecting the device
too often. Doing so may result in the operation of the
instrument “freezing” or hanging up. While the instru-
ment is accessing data (such as during Save operations),
do NOT unplug the USB connector, do NOT remove the
media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off
to either device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either
or both devices.
NOTE For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer to the owner’s manual of the USB device.
NOTE Other USB devices such as a com-
puter keyboard or mouse cannot be
used.
NOTE Although CD-R/RW drives can be
used to read data to the instrument,
they cannot be used for saving data.
