Connecting USB Devices ([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.
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 hub
• USB wireless LAN adaptor (UD-WL01; may not be
available depending on your area)
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or
mouse cannot be used.
The instrument does not necessarily support all commer-
cially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee
operation of USB devices that you purchase. Before pur-
chasing a USB device for use with this instrument, please
visit the following web page:

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 instrument.
NOTE
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
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 while executing
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 opera-
tions.
NOTE
• If you intend to connect two devices at the same time to a terminal, you should
use a bus-powered USB hub. Only one USB hub can be used. If an error mes-
sage appears while using the USB hub, disconnect the hub from the instru-
ment, then turn on the power of the instrument and re-connect the USB hub.
• When connecting a USB cable, make sure that the length is less than 3 meters.
Using a USB flash drive
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash drive, you
can save data you’ve created to the connected device, as
well as read data from the connected device.
Maximum number of USB flash drives
allowed
Up to two USB flash drives can be connected to the [USB
TO DEVICE] terminal. (If necessary, use a USB hub.
The number of USB flash devices that can be used
simultaneously with musical instruments even when a
USB hub is used is a maximum of two.)
Formatting a USB flash drive
You should format the USB flash drive only with this
instrument (page 101). 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. Proceed with caution, especially when connecting
multiple USB flash drives.
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.
