If you encounter a problem...
If you hear no sound or a strange sound, first check the items described below and take
appropriate action. If the problem persists, consult your Yamaha dealer.
■ No sound or very low volume level
• Are speakers or headphones connected correctly to the mLAN16E-equipped device?
• Are your amp and other external devices for the mLAN16E-equipped device turned on?
• Are all the level settings (of any tone generators, playback devices and the application itself)
appropriate?
• The connection cable from the external device to the mLAN16E-equipped device may be bro-
ken.
• Is the wordclock setting correct for both the mLAN16E and the external device(s)?
.......Refer to "Connecting a Computer to an mLAN device via mLAN" in the
Installation Guide, and "Wordclock Settings" in the mLAN Graphic Patchbay
Online Manual.
• (For Windows) Is mLAN (mLAN Driver) set to "ON"? From the task bar, right click on the
mLAN Manager (mLAN icon).

• If there are more than four devices (including a computer) on the network, the limit of the
IEEE1394 BUS bandwidth may be exceeded.
