PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage
is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-130 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha)
only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or
overheating.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
• Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators,
and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on
it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.
Do not open
• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify
them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should
appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Water warning
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any
openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power
immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the
instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Fire warning
• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
If you notice any abnormality
• If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden
loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke
should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,
disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by
qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to
the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the
plug itself and not the cord.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical
storms.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.
Battery
• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity
markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or battery fluid
leakage.
• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together
with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline batteries with
manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or different types of
batteries from the same maker, since this can cause overheating, fire, or battery
fluid leakage.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
• When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long time,
remove the batteries from the instrument to prevent possible leakage of the battery
fluid.
• Keep batteries away from children.
• If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the battery fluid
should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immediately with
water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss
of sight or chemical burns.
Location
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or
heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent
the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile
phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may
generate noise.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall
over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you
are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall AC outlet.
• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand or rack,
use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal
components or result in the instrument falling over.
Connections
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,
set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all
components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls
while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,
solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

About MIDI
NOTE
The instrument features a MIDI terminals that can be connected to other MIDI instruments and devices for expanded musical functionality.
What is MIDI?
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a
world-standard interface for communication
between electronic musical instruments and
music devices. When MIDI-equipped instruments are connected via a MIDI cable, it
becomes possible to transfer performance and
setting data between them for significantly
enhanced performance and production potential.
CAUTION
• Connect the PSR-E223/YPT-220 to external equipment
only after turning off power for all devices. Then, turn on
the power, first to the PSR-E223/YPT-220, then to the connected external equipment. Reverse this order when you
turn the power off.
NOTE
• MIDI cables (sold separately) must be used for connecting to
MIDI devices. They can be bought at music stores, etc.
Transferring Performance Data To
and From Another Instrument
By connecting the PSR-E223/YPT-220 to other
MIDI devices or a computer, the performance
data of the instrument can be used on those other
MIDI devices or computer, and also the performance data from other MIDI devices and computer can be received and sounded with the PSRE223/YPT-220.
A Yamaha UX16 or similar USB-MIDI interface
(sold separately) will be necessary for MIDI
connection between the PSR-E223/YPT-220 and
a USB-equipped computer.
Make sure to purchase a Yamaha UX16 or a quality USB-MIDI interface at a musical instrument
store, computer store or electrical appliance store.
If you use the UX16 interface, install the driver
supplied with the interface on your computer.
• Preset Song data cannot be transmitted from the instrument
by the Song Out function.
● When the instrument is connected with another MIDI device, it transmits/receives
performance data.

NOTE
Reference
■ MIDI settings
These settings should be made when transmitting/receiving performance data to a connected
MIDI device or computer.
Local Settings
Local Control determines whether or not notes
played on the instrument are sounded by its
internal tone generator system; the internal tone
generator is active when local control is on, and
inactive when local control is off.
•On
This is the normal setting in which notes
played on the instrument’s keyboard are
sounded by the internal tone generator system. Data received via the instrument’s
MIDI terminal will also be played by the
internal tone generator.
• Off
With this setting the instrument itself produces no sound (keyboard performance, or
Style playback), but the performance data
is transmitted via the MIDI terminal. Data
received via the instrument’s MIDI terminal will also be played by the internal tone
generator.
You can set the Local Control in the Function
Settings (page 44).
NOTE
• If you can’t get any sound out of the instrument, Local Control
may be the most likely cause. Playing the keyboard results in
no sound when Local is set to OFF.
External Clock Settings
These settings determine whether the instrument
is synchronized to its own internal clock (OFF),
or to a clock signal from an external device
(ON).
•On
The instrument’s time based functions will
be synchronized to the clock from an
external device connected to the MIDI terminal.
• Off
The instrument uses its own internal clock
(default).
You can set the External Clock in the Function
Settings (page 44).
• If External Clock is ON and no clock signal is being received
from an external device, the Song, Style, and metronome
functions will not start.
Sends the PSR-E223/YPT-220 panel settings to
an external MIDI device.
When recording a PSR-E223/YPT-220 performance to an external sequencer or similar equipment, you can use this function to send the
current PSR-E223/YPT-220 panel settings so
that when the sequence is played back the original panel settings are automatically restored.
You can set Initial Send in the Function settings
(page 44).

Appendix
Troubleshooting
ProblemPossible Cause and Solution
When the instrument is turned on or off, a
popping sound is temporarily produced.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced.
There is no sound even when the keyboard is
played or when a Song or Style is being
played back.
Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the
sound seems to be cut off.
Playing keys in the right hand area of the
keyboard does not produce any sound.
Regardless of how strongly play the keys, the
level of the sound does not change.
• The volume is too soft.
• The sound quality is poor.
• The rhythm stops unexpectedly or will not
play.
• The Song, etc. does not play correctly.
The Style or Song does not play back when
the [START/STOP] button is pressed.
The Style does not sound properly.
No rhythm accompaniment plays when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed after
selecting Style number 093–100 (Pianist).
The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the opposite effect. For example, pressing the footswitch cuts off the sound and
releasing it sustains the sounds.
The ACMP ON indicator does not appear
when the [ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed.
This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical
power.
Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument may produce
interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further
away from the instrument.
Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the
rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound
is output.
Check the Local Control on/off. (See page 46.)
The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 32 notes. If a style or
Song is playing back at the same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the accompaniment or Song.
When using the Dictionary function (page 41), the keys in the right hand
area are used only for entering the chord root and type.
Since this keyboard does not have touch response, the level of the
sound does not change in response to your playing strength.
The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six batteries with completely
new ones, or use the optional AC adaptor.
Is External Clock set to ON? Make sure External Clock is set to OFF;
refer to “External Clock Settings” on page 46.
Make sure that the Style Volume (page 40) is set to an appropriate level.
Is the Split Point set at an appropriate key for the cords you are playing?
Set the Split Point at an appropriate key (page 41).
Is the “ACMP ON” indicator showing in the display? If it is not showing
press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button so that it does show.
• The auto accompaniment will sometimes not change when related
chords are played in sequence (e.g. some minor chords followed by the
minor seventh).
•Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously
played chord.
• Playing two same root keys in the adjacent octaves produces accompaniment based only on the root.
This is not a malfunction. Style number 093–100 (Pianist) have no
rhythm parts, so no rhythm will play. The other parts will begin playing
when you play a chord in the accompaniment range of the keyboard if
auto accompaniment is turned on.
The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch
plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the
power.
Always press the [STYLE] button first when you are going to use any
style-related function.
The instrument has 32-note maximum polyphony. This means that
it can play a maximum of up to 32 notes at once, regardless of
what functions are used. Auto accompaniment uses a number of
the available notes, so when auto accompaniment is used the total
number of available notes for playing on the keyboard is correspondingly reduced. The same applies to the Song functions. If the
maximum polyphony is exceeded, earlier played notes will be cut
off and the most recent notes have priority (last note priority).

Drum Kit List
•“ ” indicates that the drum sound is the same as “Standard Kit 1”.
• Each percussion voice uses one note.
• The MIDI Note # and Note are actually one octave lower than keyboard Note # and Note. For example, in “Standard Kit 1”, the “Seq Click H” (Note#
36/Note C1) corresponds to (Note# 24/Note C0).
•Key Off: Keys marked “O” stop sounding the instant they are released.
•Voices with the same Alternate Note Number (*1 … 4) cannot be played simultaneously. (They are designed to be played alternately with each other.)
