Connecting A Usb Flash Memory - Yamaha Clavinova CVP-601 Owner's Manual

Connecting a USB Flash Memory

By connecting a USB flash memory to the instrument's [USB TO DEVICE] terminal, you can save data you've created
to the device.
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 memory
• USB hub
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:
http://download.yamaha.com/
NOTE
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse
cannot be used.
 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.
NOTICE
• When connecting a USB device to the [USB TO DEVICE]
terminal on the top panel, remove it before closing the key
cover. If the key cover is closed with the USB device
connected, the USB device may be damaged.
• Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB storage device
during playback/recording, file management (such as Save,
Copy, Delete and Format operations) or accessing the USB
storage device. Failure to do so may result in "freezing" of
the operation of the instrument or corruption of the USB
storage device and the data.
• When connecting then disconnecting the USB storage
device (and vice versa), make sure to wait a few seconds
between the two operations.
NOTE
• If you intend to connect two USB flash memory 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.
• When connecting a USB cable, make sure that the length is less
than 3 meters.
• 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 Flash Memory
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash memory
device, 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 devices to be used
Up to two USB flash memory devices can be connected
to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. (If necessary, use a
USB hub. The number of USB flash memory devices that
can be used simultaneously with musical instruments
even when a USB hub is used is a maximum of two.)
 Formatting USB flash memory
When a USB flash memory is connected, a message may
appear prompting you to format the device. If so, execute
the Format operation (page 92).
NOTICE
The format operation overwrites any previously existing data.
Make sure that the USB flash memory you are formatting does
not contain important data. Proceed with caution, especially
when connecting multiple USB flash memory devices.
 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.
