2.5.3 Changing the MIDI Channel DIP Switches
Setting switches 1 to 4 on the first DIP switch array determines which MIDI channel the unit will
respond to. These DIP switches are set the same way in which the MIDI note DIP switches are set.
That is, when a DIP
switch is in the up position, it is considered “1”
and, when it is in the down
position,
it is considered “0”.
These binary codes are used to configure the MIDI channel in which the
unit will respond to. For example, if only DIP switch 4 is in the up position while the other 3 are in
the down position (resulting in the binary code 0001), the unit will respond to MIDI channel 2. Refer
to the
“Binary” column on the
table in section 2.5.4 for the DIP switch positions required to change
the unit’s designated MIDI channel.
The default DIP switch setting is highlighted in grey.
Again, it is important to note that any changes to the DIP switches must be done while the unit is
powered off, as the unit only checks the DIP switch settings during start-up.

2.6 Linking Multiple Units Together
Multiple units can be linked together using the
“MIDI I
n
”
and
“MIDI T
hru
”
connectors found on the
side of each unit. Using a standard MIDI cable, you can connect the
“MIDI T
hru
”
of the unit that is
receiving incoming MIDI data with the
“MIDI I
n
”
of the other unit that you want to link. This same
process can be applied to link additional units as displayed in the diagram on the next page.
