Internet Direct Connection (CLP-370/
340, CLP-S308/S306)
This feature lets you directly connect your instrument to the Internet. A service in the special Yamaha website enables you
to play back a range of songs (song data) in various musical genres as background music.
Here in this section, you may come across some unfamiliar terms and phrases related to computers and online communi-
cations. To look up the meaning of these terms, refer to the “Glossary of Internet Terms” on page 57.
Setting up the Instrument for Internet Connection
You can connect the instrument to a full-time online connection (ADSL, optical fiber,
cable Internet, etc.) via a router or a modem equipped with a router. For the latest ser-
vices and the specific instructions on connecting (as well as information on compatible
devices etc.), refer to the Yamaha website:
http://music.yamaha.com/idc/
To use the Internet connection, you will first need to subscribe to an Internet service or
provider.
Connection example 1: Connecting by cable (using a modem with-
out router)
NOTE
Depending on the Internet con-
nection, you may not be able to
connect to two or more devices
(for example, a computer and the
instrument), depending on the
contract with the provider. This
means you cannot connect with
the instrument. If in doubt, check
your contract or contact your pro-
vider.
NOTE
Connect the LAN cable to the
[LAN]
port.
NOTE
Some types of modems require
an optional Ethernet hub network
for simultaneously connecting to
several devices (such as com-
puter, musical instrument, etc.).
NOTE
Due to EU regulations, users
within Europe should use an STP
(shielded twisted pair) cable to
prevent electromagnetic interfer-
ence.
Use a computer to connect to the Internet and get online before connecting the instrument,
since no modem or router settings can be made from the instrument itself.
