Setting Up
Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power.
Setting Up
Power Requirements
Although the instrument will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an
AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete
resources. USB flash memory save, delete, and format operations can only be performed on the NP-V80 when the
instrument is being powered from an AC adapter. These operations cannot be performed using battery power.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
WARNING
• Use the specified adaptor (page 97). The use of other
adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the
adaptor and the instrument.
1 Connect the AC adaptor to the power supply jack.
2 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
CAUTION
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the
instrument, or during electrical storms.

AC outlet
Using Batteries
1 Open the battery compartment cover located on the
instrument’s bottom panel.
2 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow
the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment.
3 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it
locks firmly in place.
For battery operation the instrument requires six 1.5V
“AA” size, LR6 or equivalent batteries. (Alkaline batteries are recommended.) When battery power becomes
too low for proper operation, make sure to replace all
batteries, following the precautions listed below.
If necessary, also make sure to save all important User
data (see pages 50, 88).
CAUTION
• Be sure to install the batteries in the same direction, maintaining the correct polarity (as shown). Incorrect battery
installation may result in heat, fire and/or leaking of corrosive chemicals.
• When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline
and manganese) at the same time.
• If the instrument will not be used for an extended period of
time, remove the batteries to prevent possible fluid leakage.
NOTICE
NOTE
• Connecting the AC power adaptor automatically supplies
power from the adaptor and overrides battery power, even
when batteries are installed.
• The use of alkaline batteries is recommended for this
instrument. Other types of batteries may exhibit a sudden
drop in power when the batteries are low, possibly resulting in a loss of flash memory data.
• Please use the power adaptor when transferring data to
flash memory. Batteries (including rechargeable types) can
be drained rapidly by this type of operation. If the batteries
do become drained during a data transfer, both the data
being transferred and the data currently in the transfer destination will be lost.

WARNING
• Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for
long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear
fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
CAUTION
• To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the
external devices at the minimum setting before connecting
them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument
to set the desired listening level.

The Easy Way to Play Piano
This instrument includes a performance assistant technology feature that lets you play
along with a song and sound like a great pianist (even though you might be making
lots of mistakes)! In fact, you can play any notes and still sound good!
So even if you can’t play piano and can’t read a note of music, you can have some
musical fun. It’s never too late to start learning!
Performance assistant technology offers two selectable types. Select the type that produces the best results for you.
Chord........................ No matter where or what you play, the result will be musical,
well-balanced sound. This type offers the greatest freedom,
allowing you to play anything with both your left and right
hands.
Chord/Free ............... If you can play simple right-hand melodies but have trouble with
left-hand chords, this is the type for you. The Chord type applies
to only the left-hand section of the keyboard, allowing you to
easily play chords to support the melody you are playing with
your right hand.

Precautions when using the
[USB TO DEVICE] terminal
This instrument features a built-in [USB TO
DEVICE] terminal. When connecting a USB device
to the terminal, be sure to handle the USB device with
care. Follow the important precautions below.
NOTE
Using USB Storage Devices
By connecting the instrument to a USB storage
device, you can save data you’ve created to the connected device, as well as read data from the connected
device.
NOTE
• Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the
instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.
• For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer
to the owner’s manual of the USB device.
Compatible USB devices
• USB storage devices (flash memory and floppy disk
drive)
The instrument does not necessarily support all commercially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot
guarantee operation of USB devices that you purchase. Before purchasing a USB device for use with
this instrument, please visit the following web page:
http://music.yamaha.com/download/
The number of USB storage device
to be used
Only one USB storage devices can be connected to
the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.
Formatting USB storage media
When a USB storage device is connected or media is
inserted, a message may appear prompting you to format the device/media. If so, execute the Format operation (page 78).
NOTE
Connecting USB device
• When connecting a USB device to the [USB TO
DEVICE] terminal, make sure that the connector on
the device is appropriate and that it is connected in
the proper direction.
• Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1 standard, you can connect and use a USB 2.0 storage
device with the instrument. However, note that the
transfer speed is that of USB 1.1.
NOTICE
• The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does not
contain important data.
To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each
storage device or media. If you are saving data to the
USB storage device, make sure to disable write-protect.
Reference
• Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse
cannot be used.
Connecting/removing USB storage
device
Before removing the media from the device, make
sure that the instrument is not accessing data (such as
in the Save and Delete operations).
NOTICE
• Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage device, or connecting/disconnecting the device too
often. Doing so may result in the operation of the instrument “freezing” or hanging up. While the instrument is
accessing data (such as during Save, Delete, Load and
Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device
(shortly after the connection), do NOT unplug the USB
connector, 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.

Troubleshooting
Appendix
Problem
Possible Cause and Solution
When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping
sound is temporarily produced.
This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical
power.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced.
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.
There is no sound even when the keyboard is played
or when a song or style is being played back.
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 85.)
Playing keys in the right hand area of the keyboard
does not produce any sound.
When using the Dictionary function (page 68), the keys in the right hand
area are used only for entering the chord root and type.
The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six batteries with completely
The volume is too soft.
new ones, or use the optional AC adaptor.
The sound quality is poor.
The rhythm stops unexpectedly or will not play.
The recorded data of the song, etc. does not play correctly.
The LCD display suddenly goes dark, and all panel
settings are reset.
The style or song does not play back when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed.
Is External Clock set to ON? Make sure External Clock is set to OFF; refer
to “External Clock” on page 85.
The style does not sound properly.
Make sure that the Style Volume (page 64) 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 65).
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.
Appendix
No rhythm accompaniment plays when the [START/
STOP] button is pressed after selecting the “Serenade” style in the Waltz category and all styles in the
Pianist category.
This is not a malfunction. The “Serenade” style in the Waltz category and
all styles in the Pianist category styles 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 style playback is turned on.
Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the sound
seems to be cut off.
The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 32 notes. If the Dual
voice or Split voice is being used and a style or song is playing back at the
same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the
accompaniment or song.
Some notes don’t sound when playing multiple notes
simultaneously on the keyboard, or some notes don’t
sound when playing arpeggios.
You have exceeded 32 simultaneous notes, which is the maximum polyphony (the maximum number of notes that can be played simultaneously) of
the instrument. The instrument will play normally as long as no more than
32 notes are being played at once, both on the keyboard and by any automatic playback functions.
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 polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch
plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the
power.
The sound of the voice changes from note to note.
This is normal. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus,
the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note.
The wrong notes sound when the keyboard is played. Perhaps the performance assistant technology is turned on.
Press the [P.A.T. ON/OFF] button to turn it off.
96
The ACMP ON indicator does not appear when the
[ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed.
Always press the [STYLE] button first when you are going to use any stylerelated function.
The USB device does not respond.
Disconnect the device from the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal, then turn on
the power of the instrument.
The file name of a file transferred to the instrument’s
flash memory or a file on a USB flash memory connected to the instrument is not displayed.
The number of file names that can be shown on the display is limited to
500 for song files and 100 for style files. Please limit the number of files
accordingly.

LIMITED 1-YEAR WARRANTY ON
PORTABLE KEYBOARDS
(NP, PSR-E, YPG AND YPT SERIES)
Thank you for selecting a Yamaha product. Yamaha products are designed and manufactured to provide a high level of defect-free
performance. Yamaha Corporation of America (“Yamaha”) is proud of the experience and craftsmanship that goes into each and every
Yamaha product. Yamaha sells its products through a network of reputable, specially authorized dealers and is pleased to offer you, the
Original Owner, the following Limited Warranty, which applies only to products that have been (1) directly purchased from Yamaha’s
authorized dealers in the fifty states of the USA and District of Columbia (the “Warranted Area”) and (2) used exclusively in the Warranted
Area. Yamaha suggests that you read the Limited Warranty thoroughly, and invites you to contact your authorized Yamaha dealer or
Yamaha Customer Service if you have any questions.
Coverage:
Yamaha will, at its option, repair or replace the product covered by this warranty if it becomes defective, malfunctions or
otherwise fails to conform with this warranty under normal use and service during the term of this warranty, without charge for labor or
materials. Repairs may be performed using new or refurbished parts that meet or exceed Yamaha specifications for new parts. If
Yamaha elects to replace the product, the replacement may be a reconditioned unit. You will be responsible for any installation or
removal charges and for any initial shipping charges if the product(s) must be shipped for warranty service. However, Yamaha will pay
the return shipping charges to any destination within the USA if the repairs are covered by the warranty. This warranty does not cover (a)
damage, deterioration or malfunction resulting from accident, negligence, misuse, abuse, improper installation or operation or failure to
follow instructions according to the Owner’s Manual for this product; any shipment of the product (claims must be presented to the
carrier); repair or attempted repair by anyone other than Yamaha or an authorized Yamaha Service Center; (b) any unit which has been
altered or on which the serial number has been defaced, modified or removed; (c) normal wear and any periodic maintenance; (d)
deterioration due to perspiration, corrosive atmosphere or other external causes such as extremes in temperature or humidity; (e)
damages attributable to power line surge or related electrical abnormalities, lightning damage or acts of God; or (f) RFI/EMI (Interference/
noise) caused by improper grounding or the improper use of either certified or uncertified equipment, if applicable. Any evidence of
alteration, erasing or forgery of proof-of-purchase documents will cause this warranty to be void. This warranty covers only the Original
Owner and is not transferable.
In Order to Obtain Warranty Service: Warranty service will only be provided for defective products within the Warranted
Area. Contact your local authorized Yamaha dealer who will advise you of the procedures to be followed. If this is not successful, contact
Yamaha at the address, telephone number or website shown below. Yamaha may request that you send the defective product to a local
authorized Yamaha Servicer or authorize return of the defective product to Yamaha for repair. If you are uncertain as to whether a dealer
has been authorized by Yamaha, please contact Yamaha’s Service Department at the number shown below, or check Yamaha’s website
at www.Yamaha.com. Product(s) shipped for service should be packed securely and must be accompanied by a detailed explanation of
the problem(s) requiring service, together with the original or a machine reproduction of the bill of sale or other dated, proof-of-purchase
document describing the product, as evidence of warranty coverage. Should any product submitted for warranty service be found
ineligible therefore, an estimate of repair cost will be furnished and the repair will be accomplished only if requested by you and upon
receipt of payment or acceptable arrangement for payment.

ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE
APPLICABLE PERIOD OF TIME SET FORTH ABOVE. YAMAHA SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR DAMAGES BASED UPON INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE, DAMAGE TO ANY OTHER
EQUIPMENT OR OTHER ITEMS AT THE SITE OF USE OR INTERRUPTION OF PERFORMANCES OR ANY CONSEQUENCES.
YAMAHA’S LIABILITY FOR ANY DEFECTIVE PRODUCT IS LIMITED TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE PRODUCT, AT
YAMAHA’S OPTION. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to
state. This is the only express warranty applicable to the product specified herein; Yamaha neither assumes nor authorizes anyone to
