About USB Devices

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.

NOTE
For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer to the owner's manual of the USB device.

Compatible USB devices
USB flash drive
USB wireless LAN adaptor (UD-WL01) (sold separately; may not be available in some areas)

Other USB devices such as a USB hub, computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used.
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 instrument, please visit the following web page: 
https://download.yamaha.com/

After selecting your country and clicking on "Documents and Data" from the "Support" page, select the desired Language and Product Category, and then enter the model name into the search box. 

Although USB devices 1.1 to 2.0 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 instrument.

NOTICE
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.

Connecting a USB device

(Figure)

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.

NOTICE
Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device during playback/recording and file management operations (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.
Do not use an extension cable when connecting a USB device.

Using a USB flash drive
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash drive, you can save data you've created to the connected USB flash drive, as well as read data from the connected USB flash drive.

Number of USB flash drives that can be used
Only one USB flash drive can be connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. 

Formatting a USB flash drive
You should format the USB flash drive only with this instrument (page 32). A USB flash drive formatted on another device may not operate properly.

NOTICE
The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Make sure that the USB flash drive you are formatting does not contain important data.

To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently erased, apply the write-protect provided with each USB flash drive. If you are saving data to the USB flash drive, 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 drive by playback/recording or file management (such as during Save, Copy, Delete and Format operations). Failure to do so may corrupt the USB flash drive and the data. 


Formatting a USB Flash Drive

NOTICE
Executing the Format operation will delete all data in the USB flash drive. Before formatting, save important data to a computer or another storage device.

1	Connect the USB flash drive to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. 

2	While holding [FUNCTION] and [Play/Pause], press [REC]. 
"For" appears on the display for a while, then "n Y" appears. If you wish to cancel this operation, press [minus] here. 

(Figure)

NOTE
When you execute a Song Recording (page 29), Copy (page 33) or Delete (page 30) operation, a "UnF" prompt may appear on the display, indicating that the USB flash drive has not been formatted yet. In this case, execute the Format operation by proceeding from Step 2 as described at left.

Dashes appear in succession on the display, indicating that Formatting is in process. When the operation is completed, "End" appears on the display. 

NOTICE
While dashes appear in succession on the display, never turn off the power or disconnect the USB flash drive. Doing so may corrupt the data on the USB flash drive, and the Format operation will not be executed properly. 


Managing Files on a USB Flash Drive
When organizing files on a USB flash drive using a computer, etc., make sure to place External Songs only in the first, second, or third hierarchical folder level. This instrument will not be able to select or play songs from any level lower than that. This instrument can recognize up to 100 MIDI Songs and 100 Audio Songs on a USB flash drive as External Songs.
