Connecting To A Usb-Type Lan Adaptor And Usb Storage Device (8 Via The [Usb To Device] Terminal) - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-S700 Owner's Manual

• Connection by [MIDI] terminals
There are two ways to connect the instrument via
MIDI to a computer. If you have a MIDI interface built
into your computer, connect the MIDI OUT terminal
of the computer interface to the [MIDI IN] terminal of
the instrument, and connect the [MIDI OUT] terminal
of the instrument to the MIDI IN terminal of the inter-
face.

The second connection possibility involves a sepa-
rate, external MIDI interface connected to the com-
puter via a USB port or a serial port (modem or
printer terminal). Using standard MIDI cables, con-
nect the MIDI OUT terminal of the external interface
to the [MIDI IN] terminal of the instrument, and con-
nect the [MIDI OUT] terminal of the instrument to the
MIDI IN terminal of the interface.

Make sure to use the appropriate MIDI interface for your com-

Connecting to a USB-type LAN Adaptor
and USB Storage Device
(8 via the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal)
There are two ways of using the [USB TO DEVICE] ter-
minal.
■ By connecting the USB-type LAN adaptor, you can
directly access special Internet websites for down-
loading music data (page 171).
■ 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.

About the [USB TO HOST] and [USB TO DEVICE] terminals
There are two different types of USB terminals on the instrument:
[USB TO HOST] and [USB TO DEVICE]. Take care not to confuse
the two terminals and the corresponding cable connectors.
Be careful to connect the proper plug in the proper direction.
Explanations on the [USB TO HOST] terminal can be found in the
previous section.

Using USB Storage Devices
This type is used to connect the instrument to a USB
storage device, and allows you to save data you've cre-
ated to the connected device, as well as read data from
the connected device. The following description gener-
ally explains about how to connect and use them.
Before using a USB storage device, be sure to read
"Handling the USB Storage Device (USB Flash Mem-
ory/Floppy Disk, etc)" on page 23.
1
Connect the USB storage device to the [USB TO
DEVICE] terminal with a standard USB cable.
2
After that, exit once from the selection display
then return to the display (or press the Tab
switch buttons [√] and [®] simultaneously from
the selection display). The USB tabs (USB 1, USB
2, etc.) are automatically called up, allowing you
to save files and play back music data from the
devices.
n
Checking remaining memory on the USB storage device
You can check this in the display called up by the following oper-
ation:
[FUNCTION] → [J] UTILITY → TAB [√][®] MEDIA
Select the device by using the [A]/[B] buttons in this display and
press [F] (PROPERTY).
n
Even with a computer connected to the [USB TO HOST] terminal
and a USB storage device connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] ter-
minal, you cannot access the USB storage device from the com-
puter via the instrument.
Formatting USB storage media
