Using USB Flash Memory

Saving Data

Three types of data are saved to one “User File” by this operation: user song, style file, and registration mem- ory data. When you save a user song the style file and registration memory are also saved automatically.

1 Make sure that a properly formatted USB flash memory has been properly connected to the instrument’s USB TO DEVICE terminal, and that the icon is showing in the MAIN display.

2 Press the FILE CONTROL [MENU] button.

3 Use the CATEGORY [f ] and [r ] but- tons to locate the User File Save item.

A default file name will automatically be cre- ated.

To Overwrite an Existing File

If you want to overwrite a file that already exists on the USB flash memory, use the dial or the

[+]and [-] buttons to select the file, then skip ahead to step 6.

NOTE

Up to 100 user files can be saved to a single USB flash memory.

If the USB flash memory has been write-protected, an appropriate message will appear on the display and you will not be able to exe- cute the operation.

If there is not enough capacity left on the USB flash memory to save the data an appropriate message will appear on the display and you will not be able to save the data. Erase unwanted files from the USB flash memory to make more memory available (page 96), or use a different USB flash memory.

Refer to the “Messages” list on page 114 for other possible errors that might prevent you from completing the operation.

4 Press the [EXECUTE] button. A cursor will appear below the first character in the file name.

5 Change the file name as necessary.

The [-] button moves the cursor to the left, and the [0] button moves it to the right.

Use the dial to select a character for the cur- rent cursor location.

The [+] button deletes the character at the cursor location.

You can cancel the save operation at this point by pressing the [-] button.

7 Press the [EXECUTE] button again, or the [+] button, and the save operation will begin.

The user song will be stored to the USER FILE folder in the USB flash memory.

CAUTION

Once the save-in-progress message appears on the display the operation cannot be canceled. Never turn off the power or remove the USB flash memory during this operation.

8 A message will appear on the display to inform you that the operation has fin- ished.

Press the [EXIT] button to return to the MAIN display.

NOTE

If an existing filename is specified the display prompts you for confir- mation. Press [EXECUTE] or [+] if it is OK to overwrite the file, or [-] to cancel.

The amount of time it will take to perform the save operation will depend on the condition of the USB flash memory.
