Tips and Tricks

The receiver sends an “All Notes Off” MIDI message if  contact is lost with the transmitter.  Hence it is possible to 

turn off hanging (or “stuck on”) notes by turning off the transmitter.

Extended Setup

Extended Setup is not required for MIDIjet adapters, as they are designed to work as-is out of  the box.  However, in extreme 

situations where there is radio interference from other devices, or where there are many MIDIjet units operating in the same 

environment, the following instructions describe how to assign channels and bind adapter pairs together.  Extended setup is 

performed using DIP switches located beneath the battery door.

Channel Selection

Each pair of  wireless MIDIjet Pro system operates on 1 of  29 wireless channels.  The channel is set at the factory, but it can 

be changed by the user.  Two rules must be followed:

A Transmit/Receive pair must be:

o

Bound together 

o

Set to the same channel

When using multiple Transmit/Receive pairs, each pair must operate on its own channel

        To set the channel:

1. Turn transmitter and receiver OFF.

2. Open the battery door on transmitter and receiver and locate DIP switch.

3. Select a unique channel not currently in use by other MIDIjet Transmit/Receive pairs in your environment.  Refer 

to APPENDIX A:  DIP SWITCH  CONFIGURATION  TABLE for a  complete  list of  switch positions  and  their 

corresponding channels.  Note that a “1” indicates UP position, and “0” indicates DOWN position.

4. Set the DIP switches on the transmitter and receiver to the selected channel.  The switch positions must match.

5. The wireless MIDI system is ready for use.
