2.1.2 - Back panel

2.1.2.1.1 - Power supply connector

The power supply is provided by the USB connector (6). Note that this is not a USB interface (connecting the

CM-MIDI to a USB host like a computer will not make it appear as a USB interface... at least for now...).

The CM-MIDI is powered by any USB charger able to provide 250mA.
IMPORTANT : Never connect the power input to any other kind of power supply! Always use the provided

USB charger or an equivalent model.

2.1.2.1.2 - MIDI IN 1

The   MIDI   IN   port   (7)   is   associated   with   RTP-MIDI   endpoint   1.   MIDI   data   received   on   this   port   are

transmitted to all partners which opened a session with endpoint 1.

2.1.2.1.3 - MIDI OUT 1

The MIDI OUT port (8) is associated with RTP-MIDI endpoint 1. The MIDI data transmitted by all partners

connected to this session are merged and transmitted to device connected to this port.

2.1.2.1.4 - MIDI IN/OUT 2

The second RTP-MIDI endpoint available in the CM-MIDI is linked to the connector labelled IN/OUT (9). The

selection between IN and OUT is done by internal jumpers. The configuration performed in factory is indicated in
the serial number sticker.
