Connections
This section explains how to connect mLAN and MIDI devices (such as tone generators and key-
boards) to a personal computer via the mLAN8P.
(1) Connecting the power supply adaptor
Connect the plug of the included power supply adaptor (PA-5C) to the DC IN jack on the rear
panel of the mLAN8P, and connect the adaptor part to an AC outlet. Be sure to turn the power
switch off (standby) on the unit before disconnecting the power adaptor cable.
Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the Yamaha PA-5C or an equivalent rec-
ommended by Yamaha. The use of an incompatible adaptor may cause irreparable dam-
age to the mLAN8P, and may even pose a serious shock hazard! ALWAYS UNPLUG
THE AC ADAPTOR FROM THE AC POWER OUTLET WHEN THE mLAN8P IS NOT IN
USE.
(2) Connecting a MIDI device
Use optional MIDI cables to connect the MIDI device’s MIDI IN terminal to the mLAN8P’s MIDI
OUT jack, and the MIDI device’s MIDI OUT jack to the mLAN8P’s MIDI IN terminal. Set the HOST
SELECT switch on the MIDI device to “MIDI.”
