Supported USB memory devices

mouse, are not supported.
Connecting a USB memory device
Before plugging in a USB memory device, ensure that its
connector matches the shape of the DTX700's [USB TO
DEVICE] port and that both are oriented in the same direc-
tion. The [USB TO DEVICE] port supports the USB 1.1
standard; however, you can plug in and use USB 2.0 memory
devices. It should be noted that data will be transferred at the
USB 1.1 speed in such a case.
NOTE
• USB 3.0 cables cannot be connected to the DTX700.
 Using a USB memory device
With a USB memory device plugged into the DTX700, you
will be able to save data that you have created and to import
settings and audio data.
Initializing a USB memory device
Certain types of USB memory device must be initialized
before they can be used with this instrument. For details on
how to do this, refer to the Reference Manual PDF document.
NOTICE
• When a USB memory device is initialized, all data
saved on it will be permanently erased. Before for-
matting such a device, therefore, ensure that any
important data has been copied to another location.
Write protection
Certain types of USB memory device can be write-protected
to prevent data from being accidentally erased. If your USB
memory contains important data, we suggest that you acti-
vate write protection to prevent accidental erasure. Mean-
while, if you need to save data on a USB flash-memory
device, be sure to disable its write protection.
