Controlling the Electone from an External Device
You can use an external MIDI keyboard or sequencer to remotely play the sounds of 
your Electone and change its Registrations. (You will need to set the MIDI transmit 
channels of the MIDI keyboard to match the fixed receive channels on your Electone.)
MIDI terminals are automatically disabled when the USB TO HOST terminal is used.

Connecting USB storage devices
Using the USB TO DEVICE terminal(s), you can connect USB storage devices (such 
as the USB flash memory) for saving your Electone data.
Compatible USB devices
You can connect up to two USB storage devices (such as a USB flash memory device, 
floppy disk, Card-R/RW drive, hard disk and other drives) to the USB TO DEVICE 
terminal(s). Before purchasing a USB storage device, please consult your Yamaha 
dealer, or an authorized Yamaha distributor for advice.

NOTE
If necessary, use a USB 
hub. Only self-powered 
(battery or external power 
supply) types can be used. 
USB hubs of up to two levels 
can be used.
Precautions when using the USB TO DEVICE terminals
• Never turn the USB device’s power on/off and never plug/unplug the USB 
cable when the connected USB storage device is of the self-powered type. 
Doing so may result in the operation of the Electone “freezing” or hanging 
up.
• While the instrument is accessing data (such as Save, Load, 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.
• Be careful not to turn the write-protect switch on or off while the USB 
device is still connected to the terminal. Doing so may cause a malfunction 
in the M.D.R. operation since the on/off status may not be recognized 
correctly.
