Connection to a USB storage device (CLP-240)

By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device with a standard USB cable, you can save data
you've created to the connected device, as well as read data from the connected device.
Compatible USB storage devices
A USB storage device, such as a floppy disk drive, hard disk drive, CD-ROM drive, flash
memory reader/writer, etc., can be connected to the
USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used.
The instrument does not necessarily support all commercially available USB storage devices.
Yamaha cannot guarantee operation of USB storage devices that you purchase. Before pur-
chasing USB storage devices, please consult your Yamaha dealer, or an authorized Yamaha
distributor (see list at end of the Owner's Manual) for advice, or visit the following web page:

CAUTION
Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage device, or connecting/disconnect-
ing the cable too often. Doing so may result in the operation of the instrument "freezing" or
hanging up. While the instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Export, Copy, Delete,
Load and Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connection:
until the FILE LOAD LED flash stops), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do NOT remove the media
from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either devices. Doing so may corrupt the data
on either or both devices.
Connection to a USB storage device
This instrument has two
one on the terminal at the bottom.
USB [TO DEVICE] terminal A
USB TO DEVICE
Both are the same terminal; however, both cannot be used at the same time. Use the
[SELECT] switch to select the desired terminal. Switching to "A" selects the terminal on
the left of the panel, while switching to "B" selects the terminal panel at the bottom.
When the device is mounting, the FILE "LOAD" indicator flashes. When the mounting
operation is completed, the indicator goes off.
CAUTION
While the instrument is accessing data (such as in the Save, Export, Load, Delete or Format opera-
tions) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connection: until the FILE LOAD
LED flash stops), do NOT use the [SELECT] switch. Doing so may corrupt the media or data.
CAUTION
Disconnect the optional USB storage device connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] A terminal before
closing the key cover. Closing the cover with the device still connected may damage the device.
Formatting USB storage media
When executing a file-related operation with a connected USB storage device, a "For"
message may appear, indicating that the device or media may be unformatted. If this
happens, format the media (page 39).
CAUTION
The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Proceed with caution.
