Installing Optional Hardware
Either the mLAN expansion board (mLAN8E) or the
I/O expansion board (AIEB 2) sold separately can
be installed to the MOTIF.
With the mLAN8E board, you can conveniently and
easily hook up your MOTIF to other mLAN-
compatible instruments or devices. The AIEB 2 board
gives you additional digital I/O options, featuring both
optical and coaxial connectors. Moreover, the board
also includes three stereo ASSIGNABLE
OUTPUT pairs (six analog jacks).
Installing the AIEB2
1
Turn the MOTIF power off, and disconnect the
AC power cord. Also, make sure to disconnect the
MOTIF from any connected external devices.
2
Turn over the MOTIF so you can have direct
access to the underside. To protect the Knobs and
Wheels, place the keyboard so the four corners are
supported by something that provides sufficient
support like magazines or cushions.

Remove the cover of the bottom. Unscrew the
screws on the bottom using the driver by placing
the back sides of the ripped over body facing to you

has 7 yellow screws.). Remove the cover from the
body after unscrewing all the screws. For
MOTIF6/MOTIF7 place the back side facing to
you and slide the over toward front to remove the
cover.
Keep the removed screws in a safe place. They will be
used when attaching the cover to the MOTIF again after
installing the AIEB2.
