Connecting To A Usb Storage Device - Yamaha Clavinova CLP-270 Owner's Manual

Connecting to a USB storage device

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
Up to two USB storage devices, such as a floppy disk drive, hard disk drive,
CD-ROM drive, flash memory reader/writer, etc., can be connected to the
USB [TO DEVICE] terminal. (If necessary, use a USB hub.) Other 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 purchasing 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 connect-
ing/disconnecting 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 in the Save, Copy and Delete operations), do NOT unplug the USB
cable, do NOT remove the media from the device, and do NOT turn the power
off to either device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either or both devices.

TIP
CD-ROM drive
Although CD-R/RW drives can
be used to read data to the
instrument, they cannot be
used for saving data.
TIP
Do not use a non-ID
SmartMedia card.
TIP
Number of USB storage
devices
Two USB storage devices can
be connected to one USB [TO
DEVICE] terminal using a hub
device. This instrument can
recognize up to four drives in
one USB storage device.
TIP
About USB hub
If you are connecting two
devices at the same time, 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.
