Installationsanweisungen

1. Auspacken: Carefully remove all components from the wheeled gig bag. Verify that all items listed in the packing list are present: PD-L Power Board, pre-cut Hook & Loop strips, upgraded power adapter, DC power cables (15cm, 30cm, 50cm), and this manual.
2. Positioning the Pedal Board: Place the pedal board on a stable, flat surface. Extend the retractable support legs if an angled setup is desired. Ensure the legs are securely locked into position.

6. Hauptstromanschluss: Connect the upgraded power adapter to the pedal board's main power input and then to a suitable wall outlet.
7. Audioanschlüsse: Connect your guitar to the "IN" jack on the pedal board (if using the built-in buffer/light bar feature) or directly to your first pedal. Connect the "OUT" jack of your last pedal to your ampschwerer.

Bedienungsanleitung

1. Einschalten: Flip the "ON/OFF" switch on the pedal board to the "ON" position. The LED level indicators will illuminate.
2. Adjusting the Light Bar:
   • Pull up the light bar to automatically illuminate your pedalboard.
   • Use the control knob to adjust the height, brightness, color, and flashing modes of the light bar.
   • The front-mounted LED level indicator responds to your guitar signal, providing visual feedback.
   • Fold the light bar down to turn off the light.

3. Power-Up Buffer Function: The pedalboard features a power-on buffering mechanism that stabilizes current and protects pedals from voltage fluctuations. Some pedals may require re-plugging when first connected due to their startup logic needing a quick voltage rise. This is normal and indicates the protection is active.
4. Kabelmanagement: Utilize the wide attachment areas and cable holders to route and secure your power and audio cables neatly, ensuring a clean and organized setup.

Wartung

• Reinigung: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the aluminum alloy surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Kabelinspektion: Regularly inspect all power and audio cables for signs of wear or damage. Replace any damaged cables immediately to prevent electrical issues or signal loss.
• Hook & Loop Adhesion: Periodically check the adhesion of the Hook & Loop strips on both the board and your pedals. Reapply or replace as needed to ensure pedals remain secure.
• Lagerung: When not in use, store the pedal board in its wheeled gig bag to protect it from dust, moisture, and physical damage.

Fehlerbehebung

No Power to Pedals:

• Ensure the main power adapter is securely connected to both the pedal board and a working wall outlet.
• Check that the "ON/OFF" switch on the pedal board is in the "ON" position.
• Verify that individual DC power cables are correctly connected to the appropriate voltage outputs on the pedal board and to your pedals.
• If a pedal does not power on, try re-plugging its power cable. Some pedals have startup logic that requires a quick voltage rise, and the power-up buffer may cause this.

Übermäßiger Lärm/Brummen:

• The built-in isolated power supply is designed to minimize noise. Ensure all power cables are properly connected and not loose.
• Check for ground loops by ensuring all equipment is connected to properly grounded outlets.
• Testen Sie die Pedale einzeln, um festzustellen, ob ein bestimmtes Pedal Geräusche verursacht.

Light Bar Malfunction:

• Ensure the light bar is fully pulled up for illumination.
• Check the control knob settings for brightness and mode.
• If the LED level indicator is not responding, ensure your guitar is properly connected to the "IN" jack (if using this feature).
