Connections
The pocketC does not have a built in power supply (not enough room left inside!),
but uses an external adaptor which can be from 7v to 12v and at least 100mA. The
connection polarity is positive inner. Although the pocketC has a built in protection
diode for protection against incorrect polarity, the pocketC can still be damaged by
using an incorrect adaptor, so only use an approved adaptor and avoid using multi-
polarity type adaptors with voltage level and polarity switching, as inadvertant settings
can cause problems.
Connect the MIDI out of the controlling keyboard to the MIDI IN of the
pocketC. The MIDI input also allows control of the pocketC, such as with program
changes to select presets, and to receive it’s own Sys-Ex messages for setting up the
128 preset memories (held in non-volatile memory).
Connect the MIDI OUT of the pocketC to the sequencer (computer) or sound
generator MIDI in. The pocketC merges the incoming data with it’s own data, so the
MIDI OUT is a data merge of MIDI in and data generated by the pocketC. There is
no use for a separate MIDI thru with this type of device. Note that if extremely large
Sys-Ex dumps are passed through the pocketC then it is advisable not to move any
pocketC knobs whilst this transmission is taking place, as the merge abilities of the
pocketC were not intended to work whilst this kind of intense transmission is taking
place.
If multiple pocketC’s are being used then the MIDI connections can be chained
together so that all the pocketC’s produce one composite data from the last MIDI out in the
chain.
Functions of the LED
The LED indicates the status of the pocketC in various modes. For example,
under normal operation the LED indicates MIDI input activity, and also MIDI out
activity when moving the control knobs on the pocketC. The LED also indicates:-
