MIDImote Quick Start Guide
Version 1.0

Introduction
The MIDImote is a programmable MIDI command
transmitter for use with MIDI enabled show control
systems and for remote control of MIDI equipped
hardware. Each key can be programmed to send a
single MIDI message on any desired channel with any
command data value(s). It can be bus powered from
compatible controllers or externally powered from a
wide range of power sources and adapters.
Power
The device can be powered through a fully connected
MIDI cable using Pin 1 (0V) and Pin 3 (5VDC) when
connected to a compatible host. Most MIDI enabled
equipment does not use these pins, only equipment
specifically developed to provide a regulated 5VDC
supply on these pins will provide bus power. Otherwise
an external power source can be connected to the DC
socket on the rear of the device.
A wide range of power voltages, both AC and DC of
either polarity are supported. Virtually any power adapter
with an output of 8-20V and a minimum 75mA capability,
terminated in a 2.1mm DC plug will be suitable.
Programming
In order to enter programming mode, connect the power
source (or MIDI cable if bus powered) whilst holding the
blue button. Release the blue button when
