Internet Direct Connection (IDC)
This feature lets you directly connect your instrument to the Internet. A streaming service in the special Yamaha website enables you to play back a range of songs (song data) in various musical genres as background music. You can enjoy not only listening to the songs by your ears but also seeing the automatic playing keyboard by your eyes. 

Here in this section, you may come across some unfamiliar terms and phrases related to computers and online communications. To look up the meaning of these terms, refer to the "Glossary of Internet Terms" on page 41.

TERMINOLOGY
Streaming: Streaming lets you listen to the song data while it is being sent from the Internet. It allows you to call up the data repeatedly but it does not allow you to save the data to a file.


Setting Up the Instrument to the Internet Connection
You can connect the instrument to a full-time online connection (ADSL, optical fiber, cable Internet, etc.) via a router or a modem equipped with a router. For the latest services and the specific instructions on connecting (as well as information on compatible devices etc.), refer to the Yamaha website:
http://music.yamaha.com/idc/

Use a computer to connect to the Internet and get online before connecting the instrument, since no modem or router settings can be made from the instrument itself.

To use the Internet connection, you will first need to subscribe to an Internet service or provider.

Cord holders are supplied with the H11 to fix the LAN cable (option). For information on installing the cord holders, see page 52.

NOTE
Depending on the Internet connection, you may not be able to connect to two or more devices
(for example, a computer and the instrument), depending on the contract with the provider. This means you cannot connect with the instrument. If in doubt, check your contract or contact your provider.

Connecting the Instrument to the Internet

If you are using a connection by cable (using DHCP):
You do not need to make settings on the instrument. You can access the Internet simply by connecting a router or a modem equipped with a router to the instrument via a LAN cable.

Once the instrument is successfully connected to the Internet, the channel streamed from the Internet will be shown on the display when you select the [INTERNET] lamp with the [BGM] button. 

You can play back the songs on the Internet using the streaming service. For instructions on playing back songs, see "Listening to the Songs on Internet" on page 25.

NOTE
The most common router and modem equipped with a router have a DHCP function.

If you are using a connection by cable (using static IP address, proxy server):
You need to make Internet settings on the instrument.
For instructions on making Internet settings, see "About the Internet Settings" on page 36.

If you are using a wireless LAN (using a wireless game adaptor):
You do not need to make settings on the instrument.
You can access the Internet simply by connecting a wireless game adaptor to the instrument.
The wireless game adaptor requires settings such as the access point. For information about how to make settings, read the owner's manual for the product you are using. 

Once the instrument is successfully connected to the Internet, the channel streamed from the Internet will be shown on the display when you select the [INTERNET] lamp with the [BGM] button.
You can play back the songs on the Internet using the streaming service. For instructions on playing back songs, see "Listening to the Songs on Internet" on page 25.

If you are using a wireless LAN (using a USB wireless LAN adaptor):
You need to make Internet settings from a computer; settings cannot be made on the instrument.
For instructions on making Internet settings, see "About the Internet Settings" on page 36.


About the Internet Settings
You can conveniently make Internet settings for your instrument from the special Yamaha website.
If you select a wireless connection using the USB wireless LAN adaptor or a connection by cable (using static IP address or proxy server), you need to make Internet settings explained as follows.

NOTE
You do not need to make the Internet settings here if you are using a connection by cable (using DHCP) or a wireless LAN (using a wireless game adaptor).

Internet Settings
