Power and Connection Via USB

1.
Check that the on/off button on the back of the unit is set to "OFF."
2. Plug the USB cable provided with your Keystation keyboard to a free USB port on your computer.
3. Plug the other end of the USB cable to the USB input on the Keystation keyboard.
The single USB cable not only powers the keyboard but also sends MIDI data to and from your computer system.

Using an External Power Supply

You can also use a power adapter (not included) with the following specification: 9V DC output, 250- 300mA, center positive.
Make sure you are not already powering the Keystation via USB—if you are receiving power from the USB hub, no external supply
is needed. If not, then simply plug the power supply in to the "DC 9V" input and switch the power on.
Note: Do not leave the adapter plugged in for long periods of time if the unit is not in use.

Windows XP and Mac OS X

If you are using Windows XP or Mac OS X, you can now simply move the keyboard's power switch to the "ON" position. Because
the Keystation line of keyboards is class compliant, the unit will work without any further installation.

Other Operating Systems

If you are using an operating system other than Mac OS X or Windows XP, please refer to our website at www.m-audio.com for
the latest Keystation drivers for Macintosh or Windows operating systems.

Installation in Mac OS 9

If you do not have OMS installed, please run the OMS installer first. Otherwise, start by "Installing the OMS Driver."

Installing OMS:

Make sure that all programs are shut down before you begin the installer. Also, make sure you have removed any dongles or
copy protection devices you may be using.
1
Insert the Keystation Installer CD-ROM.
2. Double click on the Keystation (49e, 61es, or 88es) Installer CD icon on your desktop
3. Double click on the OS 9 folder.
4. Double click on Install OMS 2.3.8
5. Follow the onscreen instructions
6. It will now take a few moments to install OMS. When it has finished, it will ask you to restart the computer. Click "Restart."

Installing the OMS driver

1.
Click and drag the USB Drivers Installer to the desktop from the OS 9 window it resides in.
2. Double click on the icon. If a window appears, click "Open."
3. Double click on the newly created USB Drivers Installer on your desktop.
4. Click "Install." (The installer automatically places the drivers in the correct system folders.)
5. Once the installer has finished installing the drivers, click "Restart."
6. Once your computer has restarted, switch on the Keystation.

OMS Setup

You now have to run the OMS Setup program:
1.
Open the Hard Drive > Opcode folder > OMS Applications folder > OMS Setup.
2. If you get a message to switch AppleTalk on or off, you may choose either option, as this will not affect the OMS Setup.

4. Click "Search."
