Power Requirements

supply this current. Unreliable operation may result in such a case. When powering
Launchkey from a laptop's USB port, it is recommended that the laptop is powered from
AC mains rather than its internal battery.
If this is a problem, Launchkey can be powered via an optional AC-to-DC 9 V 100 mA mains
adaptor, which you should connect to the Power In socket at the rear (see page 12). When
using this method, please ensure that your local AC supply is within the range of voltages
required by the adaptor BEFORE you plug it into the mains. Please contact your Novation
dealer for advice on suitable mains adaptors if you are in any doubt.
