Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MY8-mLAN. The MY8-mLAN is an interface card that provides mLAN interfacing. mLAN is a digital network designed for music and based on the IEEE 1394 high performance serial bus. mLAN makes it easy to construct sophisticated networks for audio and MIDI signals that can be re-configured without changing the physical cabling (as was necessary with previous systems). The MY8-mLAN adds two mLAN connectors to the Yamaha AW441

How to install the MY8-mLAN 1. Set the MY8-mLAN’s DIP switch (SW1) according to your application. For details refer to page 7. NOTE It is not possible to change the setting of the DIP switch (SW1) after the MY8-mLAN is installed. You must set the DIP switch before installation. If you want to change the settings, you must turn off the host device, remove the MY8-mLAN, and then change the settings. 2. Install the MY8-mLAN into your device. For details refer

Names and Functions 1 2 3 A mLAN (IEEE1394) jacks These jacks are used to connect mLAN devices or IEEE1394-compatible devices via IEEE1394 stan- dard (6-pin) cables. Each jack has an LED in the upper left corner to indicate the following statuses. green : The MY8-mLAN or connected device is a “leaf” node. off : Not connected. red : When there is a possibility that the sound will be interrupted. NOTE If you disconnect the cable from the jack or turn off the power of the de

DIP switch (SW1) settings The MY8-mLAN has a switch that specifies whether audio input/output and MIDI input/output via mLAN will be enabled. In this switch, moving the white slider toward the number will turn the setting “OFF,” and moving it toward the side marked ON will turn the setting “ON.” The following settings are assigned to each number 1–8. Audio OUTPUT-Plug 1-8 (ON enables, OFF disables) This specifies whether the audio output plugs will be enabled or disabled. If

DIP switch settings for typical applications n When the MY8-mLAN is installed in the Yamaha AD824 This device performs A/D conversion of analog audio input, and sends it to other devices on the mLAN bus. Thus for the MY8-mLAN installed in this device, only the audio output plugs are valid, and the audio input plugs and MIDI input/output plugs are invalid. Set the DIP switches as follows. 1-ON, 2-OFF, 3-OFF, 4–8 may be set as desired. (However, be sure not to turn

Connections Here’s how to make connections from the MY8-mLAN to other mLAN devices or to your computer. Connecting an mLAN (IEEE1394) device Use an IEEE 1394 standard cable (6 pin) to connect the mLAN (IEEE 1394) jack of the MY8-mLAN to the mLAN (IEEE 1394) connector of the other mLAN (IEEE 1394) device. When doing so, it is not necessary to turn off the power of the mLAN (IEEE 1394) device or the host device in which the MY8-mLAN is installed. mLAN (IEEE1394) device MY8-mLAN

About mLAN connections If you want to use an IEEE 1394 cable to connect mLAN-compatible devices via their IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connectors and exchange audio or MIDI signals, you must make connection settings. There are three ways to make connection settings. • Use the “mLAN Patchbay” application program to make settings from a Macintosh computer that is equipped with a FireWire port. • Use the “mLAN Patchbay” application program to make settings from a Windows computer that i
