You can connect a USB flash drive, USB display adaptor or a USB wireless LAN adaptor to the [USB TO DEVICE] termi-
nal. You can save data you’ve created on the instrument to the USB flash drive (page 33), as well as connect to an external
monitor by using a USB display adaptor to show the instrument’s display (page 109), or connect the instrument to a smart
device via USB wireless LAN adaptor (page 108).
Connecting USB Devices ([USB TO DEVICE] terminal)
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.

Compatible USB devices
• USB flash drive
• USB display adaptor (PSR-SX900)
• USB wireless LAN adaptor (UD-WL01; sold separately)
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or
mouse cannot be used.
The instrument does not necessarily support all commer-
cially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee
operation of USB devices that you purchase. Before pur-
chasing a USB device for use with this instrument, please
visit the following web page:
https://download.yamaha.com/
Although USB devices 1.1 to 3.0 can be used on this
instrument, the amount of time for saving to or loading
from the USB device may differ depending on the type of
data or the status of the instrument.

Connecting a 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.

Using USB flash drives
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash drive, you
can save data you’ve created to the connected device, as
well as read data from the connected device.

Maximum number of USB flash drives allowed
Up to four USB flash drives can be connected to the [USB
TO DEVICE] terminal. (If necessary, use a USB hub. The
number of USB flash devices that can be used simultane-
ously with musical instruments even when a USB hub is
used is a maximum of four.)

Formatting a USB flash drive
You should format the USB flash drive only with this
instrument (page 108). A USB flash drive formatted on
another device may not operate properly.

To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each USB
flash drive. If you are saving data to the USB flash drive,
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 drive by play-
back/recording or file management (such as during Save,
Copy, Delete and Format operations). Failure to do so
may corrupt the USB flash drive and the data.
For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer to the owner’s manual of the USB device.
NOTE
The rating of the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal is a maximum of 5V/
500mA. Do not connect USB devices having a rating above this,
since this can cause damage to the instrument itself.
NOTICE
Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device while executing
playback/recording and file management operations (such as Save,
Copy, Delete and Format), or when accessing the USB device. Fail-
ure to observe this may result in “freezing” of the operation of the
instrument or corruption of the USB device and the data.
NOTICE
• When connecting then disconnecting the USB device (and vice
versa), make sure to wait a few seconds between the two opera-
tions.
• Do not use an extension cable when connecting a USB device.
NOTICE
If you intend to connect two or more devices at the same time to a terminal, you
should use a bus-powered USB hub. Only one USB hub can be used. If an error
message appears while using the USB hub, disconnect the hub from the instru-
ment, then turn on the power of the instrument and reconnect the USB hub.
NOTE
The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Make
sure that the USB flash drive you are formatting does not contain
important data. Proceed with caution, especially when connecting
multiple USB flash drives.
