5.2. Nsopọ Pedals

  1. Ṣe idanimọ voltage (V) and current (mA) requirements for each of your pedals. This information is usually found on the pedal itself or in its manual.
  2. Match the pedal's requirements to the available outputs on the GTR-PWR-12. The unit offers a variety of fixed and adjustable outputs:
    • 2 x 18V DC @ 120mA
    • 3 x 9/12V DC @ 120mA (adjustable via DIP switches)
    • 2 x 4-9V DC @ 120mA (continuously variable voltage)
    • 2 x 9V DC @ 300mA
    • 2 x 9V DC @ 500mA
    • 1 x USB-C @ 5V/2A (10W)
  3. For outputs 3, 4, and 5, adjust the voltage between 9V and 12V using the DIP switches located on the front side of the unit. For outputs 6 and 7, use the continuously variable knobs to set the voltage laarin 4V ati 9V.
  4. Connect each pedal to the appropriate output using the provided DC power cables. Ensure the polarity matches (center-negative is standard for most pedals; use the included polarity inverter cable if a pedal requires center-positive).
  5. Connect your pedals to each other using patch cables to establish your signal chain.

8. Laasigbotitusita

  • No Power to Pedals: Ensure the mains power cable is securely connected and the power switch is on. Check the wall outlet for power.
  • Pedal Not Functioning: Verify that the pedal's voltage and current requirements match the output it's connected to. Check the polarity of the power cable.
  • Unwanted Noise (Hum/Buzz): Ensure all outputs are isolated. Check for proper grounding. Verify that the current draw of your pedals does not exceed the output's maximum current.
  • DIP Switch/Variable Output Issues: Ensure DIP switches are fully engaged in the desired position. For variable outputs, confirm the knob is set to the correct voltage.
