You may not need to make both connections. For example, a MIDI controller might only be connected to the
MIDI IN on Volt, and a MIDI sound module might only be connected to the MIDI OUT from Volt.
(14) USB-C
Connect Volt to a USB 2.0 (or higher) port on your computer with a USB-C to USB-A cable (included), or with
another cable.
For example, you can connect with a USB-C to USB-C cable if your computer has a USB-C port. For iOS or iPad
devices, connect the interface with a USB-C cable (iPads with USB-C) or with the Apple Lightning to USB
Camera Adapter (other iPadOS and iOS devices).
Note: Volt is bus powered when connected to ports that meet USB 2.0 specifications. However, some USB
ports, such as those on low-quality hubs, don’t meet USB specs and cannot supply adequate bus power. If Volt
doesn’t power on, connect Volt to external 5VDC power to compensate for the underpowered USB port.
(15) 5VDC Power
Volt is bus powered when connected to a USB port that supplies adequate power. You can use the 5VDC
connector to connect to power when required (for example, if you want to reduce power drain on an iPad or
laptop, or if the USB port or hub is not able to provide enough power).
Tip: You can power Volt by connecting the included USB-A to barrel connector power cable to a USB power
adapter, then connecting the barrel plug to this power inlet on Volt.
(16) Power Switch
Apply power to Volt with this switch.
(17) Kensington Security Slot
Use with Kensington-compatible security devices to secure Volt hardware.
