mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools Installation Guide
3
The mLAN Driver/mLAN Tools enable you to use the mLAN devices such as 01X, i88X, mLAN16E, mLAN16E2, MY16-mLAN
and n8/n12 connected to your computer via an IEEE1394 (mLAN) cable. The following items are included in the mLAN Driver/
mLAN Tools.
mLAN Bus Driver
01X Driver
i88X Driver
mLAN16E Driver
MY16-mLAN Driver
n8/n12/mLAN16E2 Driver
mLAN Connection Manager for n8/n12/mLAN16E2
mLAN Auto Connector for 01X/i88X/mLAN16E/
MY16-mLAN
mLAN Graphic Patchbay
mLAN Manager
NOTE
• The MOTIF XS8 is equipped with the mLAN16E2 as standard.
To use mLAN, it is necessary to make a connection between the virtual Audio/MIDI terminals of the mLAN devices and enable
synchronization between the mLAN devices. Such a setup is referred to as “mLAN connection” in this Installation Guide.
The mLAN connection can be set by using mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay.
When using the n8, n12 or mLAN16E2, mLAN Connection Manager automatically sets the mLAN connection, which can be
changed in mLAN Graphic Patchbay.
