Setting Up (Power supply connections)
Although the DJX-IIB will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha rec-
ommends use of the more environmentally safe AC adaptor. Follow the instructions below
according to the power source you intend to use.
The batteries should be considered an auxiliary power source for data backup (page13).

Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor• • • • • • • • • • • •

1Make sure that the STANDBY/ON switch of the DJX-IIB is
set to STANDBY.
2Connect the AC adaptor (PA-5B, PA-5C or other adaptor
specifically recommended by Yamaha) to the power sup-
ply jack.
3Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
To disconnect the adaptor: Set the STANDBY/ON switch to STANDBY,
then unplug the adaptor from the AC outlet, and then disconnect it from
the DJX-IIB power supply jack.
• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-5B or PA-5C AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically rec-
ommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other
adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the DJX-IIB.
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the DJX-IIB, or during electrical storms.

For battery operation the DJX-IIB requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D” size, R-20 or equivalent bat-
teries. When the batteries need to be replaced, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be
distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and replace
the batteries.
Replace the batteries as follows:
1Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s
bottom panel.
2Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity
markings on the inside of the compartment.
3Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly
in place.
• 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 is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries from it, in order to
prevent possible fluid leakage from the battery.
• Plugging or unplugging the AC
power adaptor while the batteries
are installed will reset the DJX-
IIB to the defaults.
• If you play the DJX-IIB with the
volume at its maximum level
when the batteries are used, the
life of the batteries will be shorter.
