See page 21. See page 20. • Since the TYROS has no built-in speakers, you need to monitor its sound output via external audio equipment. Alternatively, you could use a pair of headphones.• Make sure that the POWER switch is in the OFF (extended) position before making any connections. If you make con- nections while the POWER switch is on, you risk damaging external equipment such as the amp or speakers. Air vent• Do not place objects on the instruments air vent, since this may prevent adequate ventilation of the internal components, and possibly result in the instrument overheating. • The TYROS’ default setting for the external television/video monitor signal is “PAL.” Depend- ing on your particular locale, the standard may be different and the setting should be changed accordingly. (For example, NTSC is generally used in North Amer- ica.) Check the standard used by your television or video monitor, and if it is not PAL, change the setting in the VIDEO OUT display to “NTSC” (page 151). One or two optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitches connected to one of these jacks can be used to control sustain and a range of other important functions. An optional Yamaha FC7 Foot Controller connected to one of these jacks can be used to control volume and a range of other important functions. See page 152. You can connect the TYROS to a television or video monitor to dis- play the lyrics and chords in your song data on a larger screen. See page 151. Connecting to a computer via USB See page 58 RCA pin plug VIDEO IN The sophisticated MIDI functions give you powerful tools to expand your music performance and creation possibilities.

See page 21.For installing an optional set of speakers. See page 20. See page 140. The TRIM con- trol allows the input sensitiv- ity of the AUX IN L/L+R and R (LOOP RETURN) jacks to be adjusted for optimum level matching with the connected equipment. The TRIM control allows the input sensitivity of the MIC/LINE IN jacks to be adjusted for opti- mum level matching with the connected equipment. The TYROS includes a microphone/line input jack into which just about any standard microphone or line-level source with a 1/4 phone plug can be plugged (a dynamic microphone with an impedance of 250 ohms is recommended). The microphone or line input can be used with the TYROS’ vocal har- mony function. See pages 46, 130. The LOOP SEND jacks deliver the output of the TYROS for connection to external signal processing devices, such as distortion or filter effects. The output from the signal processor can be returned to the AUX IN/LOOP RETURN jacks — letting you apply the desired effect(s) to the overall sound of the TYROS and return the processed sound back to the TYROS. The LINE OUT jacks are used to send the TYROS output to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, mixing console, or tape recorder. If you are connecting the TYROS to a mono sound system, use only the L/L+R jack. When only this jack is connected (using a standard phone plug), the left and right channels are combined and output through this jack — allowing you have a mono mix of the TYROS’ stereo sound. • See page 20.

20TYROS Owner’s Manual This section contains information about setting up your TYROS and preparing to play. Be sure to read through this section carefully before turning the power on. 1Make sure the POWER ON/OFF switch on the TYROS is set to OFF. 2Connect the supplied power cord to the AC INLET terminal on the instrument’s rear panel. 3Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC outlet. Make sure your TYROS meets the voltage requirement for the country or region in which it is being used. Since the TYROS has no built-in speakers, you’ll need to use an external speaker system — such as the optional TRS-MS01, which is designed specifically for the TYROS. For instructions on installing the TRS-MS01 to the TYROS, see page 160. Power Supply • Make sure your TYROS is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (as listed on the rear panel). Con- necting the unit to the wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the internal cir- cuitry and may even pose a shock hazard! • Use only the AC power cord supplied with the TYROS. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappro- priate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard! • The type of AC power cord provided with the TYROS may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased (a third prong may be provided for grounding pur- poses). Improper connection of the grounding con- ductor can create the risk of electrical shock. Do NOT modify the plug provided with the TYROS. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electri- cian. Do not use a plug adapter which defeats the grounding conductor. Optional Speaker Shown here is the optional L-7S Keyboard Stand. Starting Up 18
