USB flash memory or USB storage device USB TO DEVICE terminal 888 DTX900 Connecting to a USB storage device (hard disk drive, etc.) 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. NOTE • For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer to the owner's manual of the USB device. ■ Compatible USB devices USB storage devices (flash memory, hard disk drive, etc.) The instrument does not necessarily support all commercially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee operation of USB devices that you purchase. Before purchasing a USB device for use with this instrument, 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: http://www.yamaha.co.jp/english/product/drums/ed/ NOTE • Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used. ■ 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. Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1 standard, you can connect and use a USB 2.0 storage device with the instrument. However, note that the transfer speed is that of USB 1.1. Using USB Storage Devices By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device, you can save data you've created to the connected device, as well as read data from the connected device. NOTE • Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the instrument, they cannot be used for saving data. ■ Formatting USB storage media When a USB storage device is connected or media is inserted, a message may appear prompting you to format the device/media. If so, execute the Format operation (page 123). NOTICE • The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does not contain important data. ■ To protect your data (write-protect) To prevent important data from being inadvertently erased, apply the write-protect provided with each storage device or media. If you are saving data to the USB storage device, make sure to disable write-protect. ■ Connecting/removing a USB storage device Before removing the media from the device, make sure that the instrument is not accessing data (such as in the Save, Load and Delete operations). NOTICE • Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage device, or connecting/disconnecting the device 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, Delete, Load and Format operations), do NOT unplug the USB connector, 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. 21 DTX900 Owner's Manual
